	Author	Review
United States	Leslie Felperin The Hollywood Reporter	"Don't tell anyone I said this, but the result is not only pleasingly emotionally purgative, but also has some elements worthy of genuine admiration"	POS
United States	Guy Lodge Variety	"Like the first film (...) 'A Dog’s Journey' largely succeeds in spite of its own ickiest instincts (...) [It] knows exactly which dog-lover buttons to push"	POS
United States	Nicholas Barber The Wrap	"While 'A Dog’s Journey' never looks any better than a TV movie, it is more satisfying than 'A Dog’s Purpose', largely because it revolves around a single human-canine relationship."	NEU
United States	Glenn Kenny The New York Times	"The movie is packed with cardboard characters who only exist to check off bad-things-happen plot points. Stick around long enough and irritation may turn into incredulity"	NEG
United States	Katie Rife AV Club	"The human drama of 'A Dog’s Journey' is so superficially and simplistically handled that little ones will probably walk away remembering the cute dogs and poop jokes more so than the death and misery."	NEG
United States	Kristen Page-Kirby The Washington Post	"Here, nearly all the characters are underwritten (...) If you want to cry at the movies, 'A Dog’s Journey' will achieve that. If you want to have a satisfactory cry (...) stay home and watch 'Up' (…) Rating: ★ (out of 4)"	NEG
United Kingdom	Fionnuala Halligan Screendaily	"[It] is better than its predecessor and, yes, the dogs are all adorable (...) 'A Dog’s Journey is heavy-handed (...) This is hardly one for the cynics."	NEU
United Kingdom	Mike McCahill The Guardian	"Some of the oddball novelty has worn off (...) There’s nothing much for the human performers to sink their teeth into (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
