Very moving film. I couldn't relate to the lead character's profound love of animals but I did identify with the general message; that love comes in many different forms over and above the standard man/woman romantic bond.

MCT:May 14, 2008This is definitely my favorite movie of 2007. A wonderfully cute and sad movie about an animal enthusiast. Or I guess you could just say "dog-lover". Don't be fooled in to thinking this is your typical, slap-happy, Molly Shannon role. It is very much so dramatic, and depressing. The humor is very dry, and hard to find if you are looking too hard. This is not like anything you have seen from either director Mike White, or Molly Shannon, I can guarantee. You don't have to be an animal freak to enjoy this movie. But it does require a sort of appreciation for subtlety, which I am big on in movies. Please watch, let me know what you think!

A dark comedy that wasn't very comedic, but overly indulgent when it comes to sad moments. While the plot was a pleasent change from the typical formula, and it was well-acted, the movie still left something to be desired.

It's a bit mediocre...but most animal lover will probably have a biased opinion about it. Dealing with some pretty intense situations it shows us that sometimes we have stand up...no matter what everyone else thinks of us.

MCT:May 1, 2008I like Mike White, but this film just didn't do anything for me. Just when you think its a comedy it decides it wants to be something else. Just when you think its going to be a romantic comedy it decides it wants to be something else. Just when you think its going to be a pyschological drama it becomes something else. Just when you think its going to be an animal rights film is peters towards the end with little to no clear direction, purpose, or message. The only upside is the cute little dog in the beginning, "pencil." After that the movie is just a confused jumble of who knows what.
