| Original Score: 7/10 | Jul 30, 2024
I do think the film somewhat works despite its corniness for its accessibility allows it to promote themes of perseverance and reaching out to family.

Whatever you want to say about any of the W. Bruce Cameron adaptations, by the time A Dog’s Journey's credits rolled, I had overdosed on cuteness.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 20, 2022
The film celebrates family, reconciliation and loyalty.

A truly high-quality production that smartly pays attention to pacing, performances, cinematography, score, messages and...[it] authentically pays off.

Even with a relatively merciful runtime of a hundred minutes, A Dog's Journey still manages to wear out its welcome before the credits roll.

What if dogs really aren't this annoying when we get to hear inside their head? What if they're actually very smart or lovely?

This shaggy dog sequel scratches all the designated spots.
| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Sep 9, 2019
I went into it feeling a bit low and came out of it feeling a bit better. It's a reminder that sometimes there's a beauty in just going along with ordinary life, which is short, even more so for dogs.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 27, 2019
Much of this drama is entertaining and, at times, compelling, even if it won't take a Pekingese long to work out where the plot is going.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 19, 2019
If there are to be more sequels, I'm hoping that future Baileys cut the chat and hark back to a time when heroism trumped cuteness and movie dogs left the punchlines to the human members of the cast.
| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Aug 19, 2019
It's all sweet, silly and kind of spooky as it was the first time around.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 15, 2019
There is so much obvious emotional manipulation occurring in 'A Dog's Journey,' you may as well be handed a box of tissues and a fluffy pillow when you enter the cinema.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 14, 2019
It is the sequel to the 2017 film A Dog's Purpose, but the new film stands on its own.
| Jul 30, 2019
The film is aimed at those who turn their long-suffering pets into emotional prosthetics, characterized by unconditional surrender to their masters. [Full review in Spanish]

Sure it's a whole lot of fluff, but you just can't help but go along and pet this story as it strolls along.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Jun 15, 2019
'A Dog's Journey' has more bite than you might think.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Jun 5, 2019
A Dog's Journey is a series of moments, tenuously connected with little impact or consequence, with Josh Gad narrating the whole thing in an increasingly irritating juvenile tone.
| May 27, 2019
A stale melodrama that doesn't exhibit much bite, much bark, or, really, much of anything.
| Original Score: 2/4 | May 24, 2019
Warmhearted story about a reincarnated dog through several lives. And let's hear it for the dog actors, these guys are award worthy.
| Original Score: 7/10 | May 24, 2019
