I watch a lot of films and some are so bad they are quite good, this does not fall into that category. This is just horrendous. Poor, very very poor acting, script was not good and the director must think he's the new Ed Wood, because he obviously doesn't think the audience care about details, like acting, script and editing. If you find a good review they are either lying through their teeth or was involved in the film. Although I would guess anyone involved in this film are probably doing other careers, because acting and film making is not their calling.
My wife and I had a blast watching this terrible movie. How did that kid get the main role? Who wrote this? The entire movie is 1000 "touching scenes" over and over. Can't believe I watched this entire movie. Holy crap it's bad!!!
The plot of the movie was actually so good! Really cute and heartwarming, telling the story of a troubled teen that gets a new perspective through court ordered juvenile probation and community service.
However, the script, the production, and much of the acting was really bad. B rating at best. A lot of the blocking was off, the angle the scenes were filmed felt homemade, and some of the lines were truly cringe. I feel the story would do very well remake and a higher budget to get experienced director and production team.
I would watch again for the story but I will definitely be cringing through some of it.

My daughter absolutely loves animal movies, especially with dogs. The story seemed very interesting when me and my daughter read the info on the TV before watching. I was very unimpressed. From the very first five minutes of the movie, I wanted to change the station because of how unengaged I was. I made the dumb decision to keep watching, hoping it would get better. Dumb idea. It seemed to do nothing but get worse and worse! The acting completely ruined the movie. The actors sounded like they were just reading the lines off the script. There was no emotion what so ever, which is very strange considering the story line is very dramatic and emotional. The whole thing felt scripted and fake. I feel like I completely wasted 90 minutes of my life. I would not recommend this to anyone.
Probably would have been a cute movie, but the acting is so bad it makes you cringe. The actors were so terrible, I couldn't even finish the film.

- TriviaThe lead dog, Petunia, was actually rescued from an animal shelter to play the role in 12 Dog Days Till Christmas. She had very little hair initially, but by the time filming started she had grown back a lot of her hair due to the love and attention she received in her new home. She is still living with the animal trainer after the film.
