Karl O Sometimes a film comes along.... A singular film......a special film....... This is one such film. I don't think it's unreasonable to say that everyone involved with the planning, funding, casting, production and marketing of this film should be rounded up, tried, sentenced and condemned for executed for crimes against humanity! This film makes awful films look like Lawrence of Arabia. The cast of this film (bar the dog) couldn't act with a gun to their heads. The Story makes no sense. The kids are bratish and seriously annoying and whoever wrote their scripts CLEARLY had never heard human beings speak! The Story is simply implausible! Who or whatever wrote this film had obviously never been to a stray dog shelter before! Or been outside on planet earth for that matter. The dog in this film (apart from being head shoulders the BEST actor in this dreadful film) goes through the dog pound on 3 or 4 occasions and not once does the dog pound worker think of microchipping or even attempting to register this animal in any way. There are so many plot holes in this story that it just feels like a series of scenes hammered together with a large wooden mallet. The Romantic male lead loses his dog at one stage and stumbles across an evil old man who had had his dog taken to the dog prison for digging up his flowers....he'd actually called the dog catcher to take it away. The owner interacts with this old man and midway through the conversation simply walks off without even asking what had happened to his dog? This level of half arsed can't be bothered film making is scattered throughout this film.... The female lead is midway through her courtship with her opposite number when her ex husband turns up and NOTHING of note is mentioned of this. Avoid this film at all costs!
