    A Dog's Purpose was a great movie for all ages. If you are a dog lover, you will enjoy this movie. My friend that joined me to see the movie said she couldn't wait to go home and hug her dog. It made me want to go and take in a foster dog. It was a very touching and at times funny movie.

    I enjoyed the movie, however I'm not sure the screenwriter read the same book I did. Too many changes made from the book to the movie in my opinion.

    a heartwarming tale of man's best friend but can be at times hard to watch as a younger viewer (kids) as this movie shows that life sometimes isn't always roses and rainbows.

    I looked for some evidence of abuse in the water rescue scene and saw none. Of course that doesn't necessarily answer the allegations raised. There are other commentaries explaining what happened and for the most part, they are compelling. This was good fun. Anyone who grew up with a dog had to be moved. I think the creators faced a difficult task in moving Bailey through several lifetimes in search of his purpose, but somehow brought it together. I confess I followed each dog's life adventure with enthusiasm and amusement. I might see this one again.

    As a dog owner I often wonder what he is thinking! They truly are man's best friend and our so loyal to their owners! This story portrays that 100%. Everyone should see this movie! The story was so well written and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I am so glad that all the bad unfair publicity did not discourage my decision to see it! I hope everyone enjoys it as much as I did!
