A film that's hard for dog lovers to resist...
“A Dog’s Purpose,&#34; based on the bestselling novel by W. Bruce Cameron, is the touching story of one devoted dog (voiced by Josh Gad) who discovers the meaning of his own existence through the lives of the humans he teaches to laugh and love. The concept of the film is that dogs are constantly reincarnated in other breeds and with differing temperaments.<br /><br />We follow the lives of a stray pup, a red retriever named Bailey in the 1960s and 70s, Ellie, a German Shepherd K-9 police dog, Tino, a small 80s corgi, and finally Buddy, a neglected St. Bernard with a long road home. What ever the shell, however, it’s always Bailey inside, retaining all the memories and experiences along the way. Bailey constantly ponders the meaning of life and the reason why he is where he is. Is it merely to have fun? To make humans happy? Finally, he settles on living for the moment, an appropriate code to live by if you’re a dog.<br /><br />The movie paints a rosy picture of mid-20th-century America in the sequence with Bailey, even though it does have its darker edges with a father too dependent on alcohol to make up for frustrations at work and a chaotic dinner party. The other sequences deal with tales of canine heroism or dedication reminiscent of the vintage TV show, “Lassie.” Director Lasse Hallstrom (“The Cider House Rules”) incorporates lots of humor well as some sad moments but, overall, the film is a tribute to the simple animals we bring into our lives who love us unconditionally, but leave us too soon.<br /><br />The human cast includes Dennis Quaid, Peggy Lipton, Bryce Gheisar, K.J. Apa and Juliet Rylance.<br /><br />Bonus extras on the 2-disc Blu-ray/DVD Combo Pack include deleted scenes, outtakes, and the featurettes “Lights, Camera, Woof!” and “A Writer’s Purpose.” A digital HD copy is included.
