      A dog as a man

      The movie expresses this movie in the tone of a dog, to express the warmth and coldness of the world. In CJ's growth, whether it was Bailey, Molly, Big Dog or Max, they all used the most tender way to accompany her growth. With Bailey's company CJ's childhood was really much fun, and the Ethan family also gained a comfort in middle age. Some small details are often the tears that touch the audience the most, and then we found that although the narrative angle of the story is the tone of a...

      nice

      I didn't watch the first part, I watched the second part directly, and I didn't understand the plot of the first part.

      This is a very loyal dog, he has been through many, many lives and can find the owner he needs to guard.

      When I watched the movie, I felt that boys and girls would definitely be together. The plot in the middle made me question my thoughts. Girls have boyfriends and boys have girlfriends. Later, the two of them met again, guarded each other, let them who already...

      There are moving, old-fashioned, and our desires

      I don't think the movie's rating will affect my opinion, everyone has their own opinion and I have mine.

      Personally, I think the script of this drama is higher than the previous one. I can't even think of the highlights and key plots of the previous movie. I vaguely remember that the dog turned around and returned to the original family. But this one I can clearly understand a drama, two lines, a whole story.

      As most said, there is a slight suspicion of forcibly stealing the...

      "Losing a dog is equal to losing happiness." A dog's mission, in the final analysis, is to love you unreservedly. Dennis Quaid is really old... So the second part is mainly directed to the younger generation. Liu Xianhua's overseas Chinese character is very seductive, and he can't take his eyes off just like watching Liu Yaren. The story retains the narrative structure of the first part, but the emotion that is irresistible to dogs turns into cheap sensationalism in the...

      A dog's four cycles, guarding humans is the dog's ultimate mission. It is still the familiar taste of the original formula, a sensational family-friendly routine that the people like to hear: the reconciliation of mother-daughter relationship, the final marriage of lovers, the successful pursuit of music dreams, the mutual love of husband and wife, the love of people and dogs that can communicate with each other no matter how many times the vest is changed. This kind of childhood sweetheart...

      My focus is rather specific. Gloria gave birth to CJ when she was very young and completely unprepared to raise a child, so her parenting responsibilities were very vague. Like CJ said, she was not at home almost every night. I don't care about CJ when I'm afraid of thunder, and it's not enough. I feel that having a baby really requires maturity and responsibility. If I don't have you, I won't be born and I won't have time to take care of it, then [Ma Weiwei's tone] Get a dog....

      Still very tear-jerking, love dog and Dennis play. The scenes of cj, mother and boyfriend are a bit cliché and...

      Continue the development of the first story, but this time the guardian is changed from Ethan to his granddaughter CJ, and there is still a little warmth and a little healing. Compared to the first one, this one is a lot worse. 1st and 4th grade dog students, everything feels natural and emotional, and finally returning to Ethan's side is more like a providence. And this three times of reincarnation is obviously more deliberate. Despite death, reincarnation is reincarnated again and again. But...

    Evaluation action

    The film still presents and expresses the whole film from the perspective and tone of a dog, telling the warmth and coldness of the world. In addition to the theme of warmth between man and dog, the film also conveys a deeper "meaning of life" by exploring the "meaning of a dog's life". From "A Dog's Mission" to "A Dog's Journey", the concept of the movie is also very different. The protagonist Bailey constantly searched for his...

    Movie quotes

    • Bailey: On days like this, I feel like the luckiest dog in the world. I got the sun on my back, I got the wind in my face I get to ride in this car where the windows are always rolled down.

    • Bailey: I had a lot of lives, all different. Sometimes I was big, and sometimes, I was small.

    • CJ: What're you doing here?

      Shane: You don't answer my calls.

      CJ: Yeah, because I don't wanna talk to you, Shane.

      [tries to walk away from Shane]

      Shane: Come on, CJ. You're not still mad about the party? Don't walk away from me.

      [roughly grabs CJ]

      CJ: Whoa, get off! Shane!

      Shane: I thought you were cooler than this.

      CJ: Shane!

      [Bailey, as Molly, bites Shane on the leg]

      Shane: AAH! It bit me!

      Bailey: Go away. CJ doesn't like you.

      Shane: I'M GONNA KILL THAT STUPID DOG!

      Bailey: I don't like you either.
