Wonderful Story of True Life Grief

It is hard to forgive when the most important person in your life is suddenly taken away. In this case, Joe was beholden to his wife Alice for becoming a better man. Alice's visits as a guide and angel to Joe were touching and poignant. We enjoyed watching Joe go through various stages of grief and come out a better person because of it. Dog (God spelled backwards) gave Joe the support, silent but ever present, that he needed. Hard not to love this story of gentle redemption.

Out of tragedy a life can change for the better.

This movie has a quite compelling ending and films like this require the viewer to be patient as the plot weaves the story together. I thought the acting was ok. Marilu Henner was great and Corbin Bernsen was very good. Gregory Hoyt also did very well at the ending. I was not disappointed by any means and the dog brought a fine touch to a heartfelt topic. It won't win any awards but it is worth watching. Well done.

Strife with dog.

The blurb for this film suggests a film about hope and enlightenment. It is nothing of the sort. This is a cynical piece of work with an apoplectic lead who grinds and groans throughout its entirety. It has no redeeming qualities. None. It's 100 minutes of misery without a shred of levity or pathos. A protagonist so thoroughly detestable you feel nothing but jaded. A dog of a movie indeed. Skip it.

Do Watch

Maybe 'cause I live w "death out of proper time", I felt this movie dealt w grief & anger quite well. It was real, the plot was Not predictable, and it was well acted. I would have liked to have seen or heard more of a "peace through the storm through faith" message from Alice, as there is a profound difference in grieving w/o faith in God versus trusting God through it. I've done it both ways, thankfully I live through it w God now. Well done on the writing Mr. Bernsen.
