Would have been great if not for the "Laughing Gas"
I went to see Good Boy not because of what I heard, but because we have an Italian Greyhound and wanted to see one in a movie. My daughter enjoyed the dogs but I was APPALLED to see the dogs get "tipsy" and run blurry-eyed, giggling around after the aersol can in the garage get knocked over. I don't think the young viewer can associate the difference between "laughing gas" and regular gas and aerosols that are found in a garage. We lose so many kids to "huffing" gas and this should not be shown in a humourous light to children. I found this to be utterly irresponsible and will not recommend this movie to any viewers with children unless the scene is removed from the film.

Reality Check
I saw this movie with my 4 and 6 year old and they enjoyed seeing the kids on the screen. I talked to them about the reality of children moving a lot and and asked them what the lead kid did to create stability for himself (in terms they could understand). I took the opportunity to talk about physical comedy and how some people consider this form of comedy and asked them what they thought about it. They do not quite find physical comedy funny, they are concerned about the people getting hurt. The key positive was the leading kids respectful persistence, respectful of his own needs and his parents.

Excellent family film
This was an excellent Family Movie Night flick. It was fun, the kids loved hearing the dogs talk. What could've been a downer movie with a lonely child turned into a silly, fun, flick with the boy helping his dog friends and making some people friends.

Just wanted to say
The fact that you give this as many stars as Kill Bill is ridiculous. Wow!
