Sexylocher Masterful Movie

Clarissa Mora The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

Jerrie It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

BulmaPunkRocker A dog's purpose is NOT to entertain human beings. A beautiful German Shepherd was abused during the filming of this movie. Don't support animal abuse, please.

lucki-40920 This movie is simply amazing. It appeals to so many emotions that I can't even name them. It made me cry like a little baby. If watching a dog die is bad, this movie is the worst!

rjccmb This movie is done from a very good perspective and really shows how a dog is seeing the world it lives in. Even though in comparison a dog is not as smart as a human they are more intuitive and that in itself makes them more humane than most humans we encounter. I did not see this for the longest time from the reports of abuse. However after finding out it was not true I finally watched it. I love dogs and have connections like the main characters who love their dogs. The movie will also show you there are bad people who don't care about animals which ironically speaks volumes about them, It's a true principal I'm life. Thus is very heartwarming and a family classic but really gives insight to loneliness and the here and now.

edwinapotter-51364 How I disliked the book! My friend watched the film and recommended it to me, but I was quite turned off after reading first half of the book.It was only today that I brought myself to watch the film. It is such a great film. I crid, laughed, and hugged my dog so tight afterwards, I'm pretty sure that she was a lttle confused. Okat I admit: I hugged her through the film. Honestly, I may never find out how they trained those canine actors. How they trained them to jump, fetch and make those faces, you'd be shocked by the level of difficulty in their acting--by they I mean the dogs. Dog owners must watch it! Make sure that you have your little loved one/s beside you while watching--they'll love allllllll the barkings! (MINE DID!)
