THE GIST: After being adopted as a stray puppy by Lucas, a dog named Bella is threatened to be taken away by animal control. Lucas, therefore, sends Bella to live with a friend, but she desperately misses him and runs away to try and find him. Her epic 400-miles trip will take several unwanted and unpredictable detours.A Dog’s Way Home is pretty much what you imagine when looking at that adorable puppy on the poster (whether it's CGI or not, it's still outrageously adorable): an action-adventure flick safe for the whole family that shamelessly endeavors to tug at your heartstrings.
By the way, the visual effects are fantastic. The rendering of the mountain lion alone will blow your socks off.
THE BOTTOM LINE: The movie is pretty straightforward, but the story is well told and for a kid flick, it does a good job of entertaining the adults with them. Make sure you have some tissues handy...
Grade: 6.5
