It makes me laugh that the description is completely wrong for this film. It's about a dog named Charlie who, after being killed by his former partner, gets a second chance and tries to get back at him. In the meantime, he befriends an orphan girl and promises to find her some parents, which ends up putting him into a heap of problems when he can't keep promises. The movie's animation was gorgeous and its message IS uplifting. It's not about gambling, it's not about casinos, and it's certainly not about getting revenge on human owners. Yes, there is smoking and gambling in the film, but if you focused on the story, you wouldn't really notice it as much. Don Bluth's animations are much darker in tone than Disney, but they still hold important messages and fun for the entire family.
