This may all sound too shameless and syrupy, but to its credit, A Dog’s Way Home scratches the surface of something I, as a pit bull obsessive, have never seen a “dog movie” do.
Heartwarming, mildly funny, and occasionally thrilling without ever being anything more than just fine.

It's a cliché movie, you already know what's going to happen, but it's a good and emotional movie. The dog looks so cute and sweet.
Report
For every shameless trick the filmmakers employ to pluck our heartstrings, resonant chords are struck elsewhere, teaching audiences about family, the power of unconditional love, and the ripple effects of compassion.
Dog’s Way Home is aimed at the very young, so don’t expect anything challenging. It moves along but felt limp and kind of lifeless, for all the sentimentality Smith & Co. serve up.
As ridiculous as it gets, and that’s plenty, A Dog’s Way Home manages to serve up a one- to two-hankie finale, depending on the extent of your dog-person-ness.
Some kids may find the whole affair traumatic, particularly when the poor pooch finds herself dehydrated and chained to a corpse in the wilderness. Then again, that’s nothing compared to those same kids’ parents’ recollection of a Disney flick in which a tearful boy must shoot his rabies-inflicted yeller dog in the end. Bless the beasts and the children.
For a movie with so much going on, (not even counting the CGI cougar Bella befriends), A Dog’s Way Home is wildly devoid of meaning or humor.
I watched this film on "ivi" streaming service on TV and often saw a computer graphic that looks differ than other elements. However, it's good family movie with a little naivety, happy ending and some drama. The end of scene with Acsel and Bella is most dramatic for me in the film

C'est l'histoire d'un clébard, non d'une clébarde, enfin, un cabot quoi... non je veux dire une cabote... enfin euh, un quadrupède parmi nos "30 millions d'amis" qui chient partout sur les trottoirs (vive la parité, tout ça). Et donc surtout en image de synthèse bien bidon et de temps en temps en vrai clebs mais je ne suis pas sûr, à dire vrai.
Quoi qu'il en soit, notre chienne qui a du chien est très attachée à sa famille et... enfin, je ne sais plus parce que j'ai zappé rapidement, juste le temps de remarquer la présence d'Ashley Judd... qui est presque une mamie maintenant ! ou même une vraie mamie en fait. Elle pourrait faire des yaourts.
Qu'est-ce qu'elle fout dans cette daube niaise de chez Disniais, je pige pas. La pauvre... enfin, la pauvre, façon de parler. Quand même. Mais attends, attends... c'est pas Disniais cette merde niaise à chiards niaiseux... c'est une merde soniaise en fait ! au temps pour moi, c'est pas Disniais, c'est Soniais.
