Review by Jackbv123

I love Bristow and McNally. Both are upbeat and make appealing characters. As to be expected, they have chemistry here but it wasn't enough to overcome the annoying factors.

Rachel was annoying rather than villainous. Her character was so one dimensional and unexplainable. Her meanness overrode any common business sense. Seriously, the CEO of a pet food company closing a rescue center and doing everything she could to cause it even more harm??? If the writers are going to go with that ridiculous plot thread, then they need to supply a load of backstory. Either way, it gets in the way of the romance which is what these movies are supposed to be about.

The issue of the missing "Severance" was too repetitive especially since most viewers know that it is going to be discovered in some unlikely place at the last minute. When the leads where handling photographs, I was thinking "oh no, you are not going to steal that plot device from several movies and have their grail be on the back of one". Where they found it was just as derivative.

I picked this movie out of several with high expectations given the lead actors and the obvious promise of a dog story, but was sadly disappointed.
