Who is going to boycott this because of the leak video of the dog not wanting to get into the water. I'm a huge dog/animal lover and the video wasn't that bad. The only really bad part was at the end when the dog went under the water, but they people jumped to his rescue pretty quick. People are going a little over board with it.

I'll be watching it.

My wife saw it last night. She also thought the video was much ado about nothing.

That said, she thought the movie was not that good.

I will not be watching this one in the theatre....but maybe on netflix or some streaming service. I will say the premise and the previews make me misty eyed...

I didn't see it but my kids and wife did. They all enjoyed it. Said they balled their eyes out. All they did when they got home was hug our dog.
