Procura-se Gonker

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!

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.

Did I enjoy it ? Yes . Will I watch it again ? No .

I love dogs - I am a sucker for a true story , so a true story about a dog I can't resist . You have to go in knowing what you are going to get - and just with the title and trailer you should have a very clear idea . It's cheesy , the script is mediocre , there is basically no cinematic value , and at times the main character is honestly annoying .

HOWEVER- the story is incredible , the parents are actually pretty great characters , the way the universal love of dogs is portrayed is awesome , the dog was fantastic and the bond between elf and man was shown with great effect .

If you love dogs and can embrace it for what it is - a family friendly film with a predictable plot and mediocre writing - go for it - if not - skip it .

An emotionally lost young man adopts a puppy while attending college. When he graduates, with no job prospects on the horizon, he returns to his parent's home, dog in tow. His parents bond with this special animal as well, all while frustrated with their son's lack of drive.

But when Gronk disappears on the Appalachian trail, everything changes.

First let me say our society has changed. And not in a good way. I read reviews on this movie while i was also watching it. Words like "saccharine sweet" and "waste of time". "Pathetic" "its a dog movie". Comments like "there are no curse words even with the biker gang".

I guess these people didn't grow up on Lassie, or Homeward bound or others.

Dog Gone is an excellent movie about selflessness, and a coming of age with a relationship between a father and son, all while searching for their beloved family pet. It is also based on a true story, though we don't know how much is true and how much was "poetic license".

First, since when do movies require curse words to be good? I like adult movies as well but we don't have to ONLY use curse words to show emotion. That is a very limited opinion. And one that worries me. Curse words are used when we are unable to express ourselves properly. It is sad people think we should all curse in order to express ourselves. I also find it telling that several reviewers were wanting to stress the negative rather than the positive. Especially for a movie who's target audience are young disney type viewers. And i mean traditional disney, not MCU (which I love just as well.

And since when are movies about the human condition in today's world (not some fictional world) considered saccharine or pathetic?

And about the "biker gang", a group of bikers in a club does not a gang make. If that is the case, I guess that means i have belonged to biker gangs without cursing.

So if you want a movie set in reality, where the human condition is explored while being interesting an emotional, please watch Dog Gone. Yes, I'm a dog lover, but so are billions of others around the globe.

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.
