9 Movie Animals Who Outperformed Their Human Masters

5. Beasley in Turner & Hooch

One's always clean and fastidious! The other's a total mess! And also a dog! Together, they are... TURNER & HOOCH!

The only thing odder than the fact that there was a "police officer and his dog" movie was the fact that it was one of two dueling "police officer and his dog movies." In this case, Tom Hanks and his canine companion were against K-9, a film starring Jim Belushi (barf) and a German Shepherd. But Hanks triumphed, as he is wont to do. I was severely disappointed to learn that this wasn't actually a buddy cop film where one of the buddy cops is a dog instead of a black guy, but oh well. Look at that face! You can't stay mad at him! And the dog's cute, too.

Dan Schindel loves movies more than you do. He considers it an accomplishment to have survived a year and counting in Los Angeles. Someday, he'll be the greatest critic in the world. He spent a year watching a documentary every day, so now he knows everything.
