Dog Gone

These people never learn. Next time more dogs and less bullshit. Happy though that nobody died.

The father son relationship at the heart of this movie is more engaging than the search for Gonker. It's a little bit cheesy but it goes easy on the sentimentality.

It was fine. Extremely cheesy though. Like, everyone in this movie is super passionate about finding this dog. Everyone. Even the parent who didn't want the dog because of her previous traumatic experience with her dog being taken away (which is shown in a series of dramatic flashbacks). Even people in other states want to find this dog. Everyone. Im convinced that even Cruella de Ville, if she heard about this lost dog, would don her coat made of dog fur, and be out in the woods leading the search for this dog (and not for nefarious reasons.)

Also something I couldn't understand and perhaps this comes from not being in the US but the kid had the dog at college, and I wouldn't have thought people could take their pets on campus?
