This was a moving film, about compassion and the antics children get upto. If only every one was as caring as these children. A story about love, compassion and the need to be wanted. A must see film, very funny in parts, yet very moving in others.
ehhh

Was alright I guess, I went with my little cousin to see it and he really didn't enjoy it, he kept on going to the toilet for aaagees and i found him just looking at the posters half the time because he found them more interesting than the film, it was really cliche and I expected to be just a normal kids film which it is so I was expecting my little cousin to enjoy it but he didn't which I thought was strange. The film was mediocre for kids and no-point-in-watching for mature viewers. The acting wasn't great but I did find the story quite touching but in the end that went away, it was quite anti-climatic in my view. Downsides are very predictable and cliche with a lot of cheesey acting that is really not nessasar the good points were really just the message it was sending to young kids and I thought the dogs themselves were pretty entertaining, didn't make me laugh but made me smile ad thats good enough so I'd have to give it a matinee I guess, so take your kids to see it if this is the kind of thing they are into but don't expect anything great.
Unexpectedly good !!

This was very much a last minute decision. Had logged into site to book for a different film and watched the preview for this as well. Thought it was funny with a bit of a tear jerker ending. Or am I just being soft ?? lol.
Even my 86yr old mother enjoyed it, so that just goes to show that it really does appeal to dog lovers of all ages :)
