Good Boy

I loved it. It's a unique movie, and Indy (dog) deserves an Oscar for acting so well in this movie. ...

I closed my eyes and drifted off a few times during some events that happen in this film. These events happen a lot and it gets repetitive but also allows you to wake up at the crescendo and then continue to watch the dog do stuff. It's a cool dog. The first time the dog whined my dog was very in ... terested in what was going on. By the end of the movie she didn't care at all. We were on the same page. read more

Maybe if you’re a dog lover you might get more from this. I’m not, so was frankly fairly unimpressed with this cabin in the woods style of spook-fest. It is told with a few overlapping timelines, but quickly we can deduce that “Todd” (Shane Jensen) - whose face we hardly see throughout this seventy ... minuter - is not a well man. He has moved to his late grandfathers’s rustic home with his loyal dog “Indy” but before long it is the dog that has it’s sixth sense alerted to some seemingly quite malevolent goings-on. Stuck on their own, though, what chance either man or mutt can survive what appears to be something distinctly evil lingering around them? It has it’s moments, but moments are all they are as this really thin story quite literally pads along, slowly, without very much happening. For some reason, this place in the middle of nowhere has what appears to be an industrial-sized graveyard to add to the haunting mystery, but a dodgy generator, a storm and some crackling twigs don’t really get any hairs standing up any more, except maybe on the carpet. To be fair to the dog, it could have been trained by the legendary Rudd Weatherwax and it does all of the heavy barking but otherwise this all a bit of a non-story. read more
