Richard Propes' Review

C-

If this movie wasn't already aiming so low, I'd be tempted to put it in the "D" range...Truly, I can't imagine too many children finding this film entertaining beyond the cuteness of the poorly trained dogs featured in the film.

"Good Boy!" is an 87 minute feature film that still feels too long as we journey through dogs from the planet Sirius...and, well, the plotline is so lame that I just can't bear the thought of repeating it. Suffice it to say it is stupid.

The film features former SNL'ers and regular "straight to video'ers" Molly Shannon and Kevin Nealon in sleepwalk performances as the parents of a son who basically can communicate with the dogs. All the performances here are sub-par, with none of the child actors exhibiting any appeal at all.

The dogs? okay, they are cute...admittedly, but they also don't really do anything special in this film. Quite honestly, even the stunts...a feature of any film such as this...are plain simple.

In short, this is a sub-par children's film that will appeal only to massive dog lovers.
