Richard Whittaker Austin Chronicle AJ Goes to the Dog Park doesn’t feel like a movie so much as two creative friends getting together and having fun exploring a comedic person. Sep 24, 2024 Full Review Spencer Perry ComicBook.com Some may find its comedy style irritating, though others will think it's a cherished little treasure that we can laugh about with our equally minded friends, thanks to its oddball sensibilities. Rated: 4/5 Oct 3, 2024 Full Review Alan French Sunshine State Cineplex The absurdist, micro-budget comedy highlights that the best ideas often rise to the top. With a committed cast willing to perform some very odd bits, AJ Goes to the Dog Park makes for a fun afternoon watch. Rated: 6/10 Oct 3, 2024 Full Review Stephanie Malone Morbidly Beautiful Every frame feels like a labor of love, created by friends who genuinely enjoy making each other laugh. The rapid-fire jokes, sight gags, and wacky situations keep the laughs coming at an exhausting pace, but it never loses sight of its emotional core. Rated: 4/5 Oct 2, 2024 Full Review Chris Sawin Bounding Into Comics AJ Goes to the Dog Park is a downright loony indie comedy bursting with imaginative genius. But it feels like its eccentricities derail any sort of linear storytelling, which is both uniquely inviting and somewhat distracting. Rated: 3/5 Sep 30, 2024 Full Review Dan Tabor Cinapse AJ healed my soul a little bit and left me with a warm and fuzzy feeling leaving the theater. AJ Goes to the Dog Park is pure cinematic serotonin and will leave you with a spring in your step and song in your heart, and not enough films can claim that Sep 27, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
