The best part of Puppy Love may be its double entendre marketing tagline: “One bone can change everything.”

Gustin and Hale have strong chemistry that belies their uncompelling characters, although the film’s writing and directing have a kind of forced quality that doesn’t allow them to develop their chemistry to its fullest.

There was no newness in it. I was hoping for more vulnerability in the characters, more drama and more layers which didn’t happen. The story was just too predictable.

Rated: 2.5/5

An adorable romantic comedy that, while predictable, is still a whole lot of fun. Great chemistry with both the human and canine leads makes it believable and charming.

Directed by Nick Fabiano and Richard Alan Reid, Puppy Love ultimately falls short of expectations, relying primarily on the lead performances and the appeal of the puppy love story to maintain viewers' interest.

Puppy Love is such a feel-good, heartwarming movie! The romance is sweet, the humor lands perfectly, and the adorable dog moments make it even better. It left me smiling the whole time—definitely a must-watch for anyone who loves love (and pups!).

Update: Seriously this movie is so darn cute as I sit here watching it again. Currently rewatching this movie as I type this review. So cute. So darn cute. And as much as I love the Hating Game movie, Lucy has waaaaaay more chemistry with Grant.

Yeah, this is why I trust the Popcornometer way more than the Tomatometer. This move was actually pretty great. It was fun, had a ton of heart, and a LOT funnier than I thought it would be. It also hits in the feels while not ever getting too dark. I just saw a little bit of the preview on Amazon Prime and it looked fun and I like the WB Flash Actor Grant Gustin so I threw it on and gave it a shot. I'm glad I did. It's now firmly in my top 100 movies all-time. If you haven't yet, try not to watch the entire trailer/preview. IMO it gives away too much.
