Review: Think Like A Dog Movie




Oliver (Gabriel Bateman) has a couple of obsessions in his life, his dog and his love of science experiments.  When one of his experiments goes wrong, he realizes that he has the ability to understand his canine buddy.  Through his newly found ability, together they learn to tackle his everyday problems.   I found this movie to be uplifting and sweet.  It showed the love between the pair and how animals can help to comfort us in our times of need. This is a wonderful family friendly movie.
