It means to be about a struggling family saved by a brave dog. What most viewers will agree on is that it needed more dog.

7/10

For a family film with after-school-special vibes, it lands exactly where it should.

2.5/4.0

Johnny Harrington's script is a little too paint-by-numbers to land a strong impact.

Dakota the dog can't quite fill the paw prints of Lassie, Benji, or Rin Tin Tin -- there's just not enough warm fuzzies in the fur of this Belgian Malinois.

What better way to honor veterans than with a dog movie that makes Beethoven look like The Magnificent Ambersons.

An unabashedly corny family movie that features second-rate performances, choppy editing, and dialogue that is written at a 4th grade reading level. This film is lousy, even if it has its heart in the right place.
