Where to Watch K-9
- ZokkiieJuly 17, 2025It’s a silly but fun buddy cop movie where the real star is the dog. James Belushi does his thing, but Jerry Lee (the dog) brings most of the laughs. Nothing groundbreaking, just a light, easy watch with some classic late-‘80s charm. Good for when you want something dumb and entertaining.
