Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: As children's film premises go, this is a cute one, but the execution is a failure.
Fresh: No new ground is dug up in Good Boy, but the story is well-paced, sweet and lively, filling a void for very young filmgoers.
Rotten: Jim Henson Pictures happy meal.
Fresh: A simple but perfectly satisfying little story about a boy who wants to keep his dog.
Customer Reviews
4 STARS
This movie reminds me so much of Dogs From Outerspace. I LOVED THAT OLD SHOW! And this movie shows how dog and owner can have such an awesome bond. ^_^ 4 STARS! Why 4? Though the movie is really good, I think it could have been a little bit more physical. Such as(spoiler) during the little fight scene. Though they are just kids, I was aware then, I was watching a Hollywood movie. (If you know what I mean)
Bravo!!
Love the movie!!!!! My uncle, Jerry Wanek, was the production designer!!!
Umm...
I'm not a big fan of these "talking animal movies" and thats what this is, but I have to give credit to the acting, directing, and speical effects.
