This movie is funny, sweet, sad, happy, and uniquely pleasing, as life can be at its best. Two thirds of the way through the film I found myself hoping the movie would have a happy ending, not just for Ned, but for Tally. They were just two people the world had passed by and forgotten; the deserved it.It's nice to root for nice people. It's nice to see nice people get nice things in life.You don't need a full deck to have a good hand or to lend a hand -- anyone can save lives. It's a nice movie, well worth the time.
One of those movies that makes you smile. Give it a go.
A young man determined to be a military hero, ends up on a misguided adventure with his family and new friend Tally, which leads him to the most unlikely realization of how he can courageously "save lives." Sun Dogs starts a bit slow i'll admit that but the amazing perfomances from it's cast especially Michael Angarano, Melissa Benoist, Ed O'Neill and Allison Janney are life changing, the beautiful messages about finding what is important in life and how to save lifes in a different way was so spot on and the perfomances were top notch, the humor was also great and i loved the ending and the step dad - son relationship was one of the best elements from the film and Jennifer Morrison showcases true direction potential with her directing debut. (9/10)
I just watched this films premier at Austin Film Festival and have to say I was really impressed. Jennifer has proved herself to be a very capable and impressive director and I will be eager to see where she goes next as a director. I went in knowing next to nothing about this film because it does not yet have a published trailer (very unfortunate) - however I took a chance on it because it sounded like an interesting story and I like many of the people involved in the film. I was blown away. The acting was amazing from seasoned veterans and the pace, music and feel of the movie was really captivating. I have no doubt this this movie will find its way to the big screen soon and when it does - be sure to put it on your list.This movie has some great comedic moments and I loved seeing the world through this simple-minded characters eyes. Feel-good movie of the year! *****-Hunter
