Critics' reviews
  • "I had to beg my 8-year-old to stop laughing" 
  • "A film that proves even the tiredest genre can be reinvigorated in the right hands"
  • "A family movie with a heart and a brain. And if you aren't moved to tears, you might need an organ transplant."
  • "A standard-issue Hollywood family film about a boy and his dog growing up in a Southern small town during World War II"
