The Secret Life Of Pets

For anyone wondering how their pets behave when they’re not at home, The Secret Life Of Pets reveals their antics – dreamt up by the ingenious minds at Illumination Entertainment, the creators of Minions. Co-directors Chris Renaud and Yarrow Cheney helped drive the Despicable Me franchise, and their distinctive animation style infuses this story. Wily terrier Max (Louis C. K., American Hustle) loses his preferred pooch status when his owner acquires a large, sloppy mongrel named Duke (Eric Stonestreet). The pair find themselves lost in New York, where they meet a posse of abandoned pets led by a deceptively lovable rabbit (Hart). Their adventures radiate an acid wit, amply characterised by Chloe (Bell), a smugly obese pussycat: "I'm your friend, and as your friend I gotta be honest, I don't care about you or your problems." Hilarious.
