Synopsis: Amazon.comBeverly Hills Chihuahua finds director Raja Gosnell back on the talking-dog beat (following his live-action Scooby-Doo and Scooby-Doo 2: Monsters Unleased), this time in an ambitious, tongue-in-cheek comedy with a fun cast of onscreen and vocal actors. Piper Perabo plays Rachel, niece of a Beverly Hills eccentric (Jamie Lee Curtis) who spends much of her fortune pampering Chloe (voiced by Drew Barrymore), a spoiled Chihuahua used to pacing through this world with booties on her paws. Chloe gets dog-napped while Rachel takes a vacation in Mexico, and finds protection from a misfit German Shepherd named Delgado (Andy Garcia), who has a painful secret in his past. The two get into and out of a lot of scrapes, trying to stay ahead of a vicious dog (Edward James Olmos) working for the head of an illegal dogfight gambling syndicate. Computer effects turn the film’s many four-legged characters into talking critters capable of leaping onto train boxcars and leading the heroine into the Indiana Jones-like ancestral home of the chihuahua breed. The comedy is crisp and kid-friendly, the story of Chloe rise out of silliness into canine authenticity, plus the film’s surprising ambitiousness, are all very winning. –Tom KeoghStills from Beverly Hills Chihuahua (Click for larger image)Product DescriptionIn the Disney comedy; SOUTH OF THE BORDER; a pampered Beverly Hills Chihuahua named Chloe (voice of DREW BARRYMORE) finds herself accidentally lost in the mean streets of Mexico without a day spa or Rodeo Drive boutique anywhere in sight.

The featurette covers everything from the trainers’ relationships with the dogs to the difficulties of filming with Mexican rescue dogs who “spoke” only Spanish and trained “English-speaking” dogs and the actors’ suspicions that the dogs were treated better than the actors themselves. The 9-minute “Pet Pals” features voice talent including Drew Barrymore, Andy Garcia, Edward James Olmos, Placido Domingo, George Lopez, Paul Rodriguez, and Cheech Marin offering their insights on the creative and collaborative voice-over process as well as thoughts on their relationships with their canine co-stars and the dogs in their personal lives.

There are also the B-Disney Live options of setting up movie chats with friends across the country, an online interactive trivia game, Movie Mail, and Disney Movie Rewards Live.
