    Just ok

    Not an unpleasant film, but nothing interesting about it either. Agree with others that there's definitely no chemistry whatsoever between the 2 leads and the "love" between them at the end came out of nowhere. Jake also has a slight speech impediment, where his upper lip sticks out as he speaks and the words sound almost like a lisp. Distracting at first. Very funny at the end with a newspaper article with an HD photo in place of what should have been a newspaper photo. Looked ridiculous. I guess there was no money to print the newspaper. The dog Daisy was definitely the best part. I liked the mother also. The secondary plot was okay. There are always several character stories in Larry Levinson films. This was not one of his best.

    JUST OK

    Pixl movies have dar too many plots going on. Every single one I've seen has at least three love stories going on. Not necessary. Stick to one story line. I don't care about the coworker's pregnant wife OT the mom dating. Too much going on. Also the music is really annoying. I like Brooke Nevin. She's been good in most of her roles. The male love interest (Jake Sand ig) is an unknown. He was adequate in the role. Anyhow - it's watchable - and good background noise as long as you're doing something else.

    Just okay

    Not a movie I'll ever watch again. It wasn't terrible, just blah. No chemistry whatsoever between the two leads. And since when do vet clinics run on grants? That made no sense. And why would one of the mediator take the dig? Daisy was the best part of the movie. Why isn't she credited on IMDB?! I liked the mom but her storyline just disappeared. It was just disjointed, illogical, just plain dumb.

    No chemistry, terrible acting

    My guilty pleasure is Hallmark and cheesy made for TV rom coms, and I have a pretty low bar for them when it comes to expectations. But this one I even had a hard time sitting through. One, there was really bad background music in pretty much every scene. It felt like a really bad after school special. Two, the main two love interest characters pretty much had zero chemistry. The main guy seemed like a robot on camera. The writing was really terrible - like, even for this kind of movie where you don't really need great writing. It was just a mess. Wanted to give it one star, but added an extra because of the cute dog, Daisy, who was by and far the best part of the movie.

    Excellent Portrayal By Jake

    Jake portrayed an adult on the "autism spectrum " with great accuracy and understanding. The dialogue written for Harrison Curry(Jake)gave many clues as to why there wasn't the usual chemistry between lead male and female actors. He mentions:"I like people who are straightforward, I don't pick up on emotional clues, I relate better to animals",etc. Kelsey(Brooke)comes along with cute Daisy dog and Harrison finds a person he can relate because of the common bond of a dog. Brooke has her own issues,work and personal and they are interconnected because of Daisy. She is willing to accept not only the help Harrison offers but his quirky manner as well. The film encompasses acceptance of human differences, the unconditional love of dogs, the success of therapy dogs in today's world and a very sweet romance. I found the film charming.
