Dog Gone

I recently watched "Rescued by Ruby" on Netflix, and I was recommended to watch "Dog Gone" next. It's a delightful family movie that revolves around a family's search for their lost dog. The movie introduces the family and their beloved pet Gonker. Although the plot was somewhat predictable, the charming cast and adorable canine characters made the movie engaging and enjoyable. However, I feel that the underlying message of the story, which is about how the situation brought the parent and child closer, could have been portrayed more strongly. Despite this minor drawback, I would still highly recommend "Dog Gone" to anyone who loves family movies with a touch of adventure and heartwarming moments.

The hopeless and drifting son aquires a dog and his fractured relationship with his parents takes a turn when he loses the dog because of his thoughtlessness and they band together as a search party.

The only thing the son proved was that he wasn't mature enough to look after himself or a dog. The parents had to save him from his own stupidity. See, I don't even remember the character names for any of them. Anyway, the parents and the dog saved the movie from being completely unwatchable. The son's actions were exasperating from beginning to end because he didn't seem to have grown from his experience and mistakes. There was no character arc to speak of. I love Rob Lowe and acting, but even he couldn't save the movie.

First off, I must say, Rob Lowe has gotten better looking with age. I do not understand the reviews talking about the son being annoying. What reality do you live in? I thought the character reflected many young people who graduate from college and feel lost. The love for his dog was heartwarming. I really enjoyed this movie. Knowing that it is a true story, it restores my faith in humanity. So many good people helped the family.

I think all of the actors did an excellent job. I am totally in love with Gonk. It saddens me that some people are so jaded they could not find the beauty of this story.

Okay, so it's not the best film I've ever seen, but it was nice and there were some really good sub stories going on. It definitely wasn't awful! My big takeaway was thinking Johnny Berchtold was going to be one to watch out for in the future! He reminded me of Timothee Chalamet in his acting style and he hasn't done too badly! Give him the right role and we'll be seeing a lot more of him I reckon. His perfomance really hit home on a personal level (my own son) and that whole 'lost, trying to find his way' side story really resonated with me. Just a lovely film that isn't claiming to be anything else! Enjoy it :)

I really do not understand some bad reviews here. I mean Ok, you can talk about irresponsability and the son is maybe a little bit annoying, but everyone can happen this anytime. You can find yourself in a miserable situation to lose your dog and ofcourse there is no one to blame but yourself.

Maybe there were boring moments or some bad actings in the movie but if you think deeper it is not about how he lost his dog it is about dedication, love and strentgh to not give up on finding your pet who became a part of your family!

If you don't understand the meaning of the movie than do not write bad comments!
