..... and a good one it is!Just silly and light hearted enough to keep you laughing and watching! A group of highly characterized earth dogs get a visit from a fellow dog from the star Sirius. And of course a little boy finds his dog in the outer space dog.A fun and entertaining goofy flick for all dog lovers and people that have had a significant pet in their life. Yes, you'll feel sorry for the little boy and you'll laugh at many slap stick situations the 'kids & dogs' get themselves into.A funny fun movie for all!

I saw this movie when I was about 6 years old and I loved it. This is definitely a movie for dog lovers and kids. I thought this movie was so great. I watched it everyday and it still never got old. I haven't seen this movie in 5 years but I still would watch it everyday. I recommend this movie to others. I really would love to see this wonderful movie again someday when I have the money to buy it. This is a must see movie And I believe anyone could love it if they just take the time to watch it. I hope everyone gets the chance to watch this movie and enjoy it as much as I have. Even if you are an adult this is a great movie. This movie is by far my favorite movie.

Good Boy has a stupid story to it but it has the comedy for the younger viewers that watch it. I personally think it's good but really bad. Cute story but seriously some cheesy acting from Liam Aiken, Molly Shannon, and Kevin Nealon. Good Boy finally gives dogs their movie that they deserve. People will laugh at some and just dis some parts. This movie is 4 stars. 2 because I like it and another 2 because it sucked big time. That together gives my vote 4 stars. Don't get me wrong if you want to watch this for a family movie night it is a good choice if your into dogs and space science fiction type stuff. Liam Aiken playing Owen gives a cheesy performance. But still a good one as well.

'Good Boy!' plays a bit like a low budget 'E.T.' on acid. It tells the story of a lonely suburban boy named Owen who becomes best friends with a dog from outer space whose vehicle crash lands in a nearby woods. The pooch gives Owen the ability to communicate verbally with him and all the other dogs in the neighborhood. Thus, we have the umpteenth variation on the talking animal syndrome begun so successfully with 'Babe' almost ten years ago. 'Good Boy,' in a way, is for all those who expected 'Snow Dogs' to feature chatty canines only to discover that the dogs in that movie spoke only in one very short fantasy sequence (the ads for the film did a good job bamboozling patrons into thinking otherwise).'Good Boy,' which does feature a cast of jabbering canines, proves that we've come a long way since 'Babe' - and not, I'm sorry to say, in the right direction. Despite voice-over work from some pretty impressive big name actors (Matthew Broderick, Delta Burke, Cheech Marin, Vanessa Redgrave), 'Good Boy' is one ghastly little movie, fine for those between the ages of 5 and 10, I suppose, but worthless for just about anyone else. Adults will be frankly bored by this low grade little fantasy that offers a dopey plot, inane dialogue, cheesy special effects and enough flatulence jokes to keep 'em rolling in the aisles at the local nursery school (fart jokes seem to be practically a prerequisite for any film aimed at the grade school set these days). The screenplay wobbles back and forth between half-assed cynical wisecracks and goopy sentimentality regarding the eternal verities of man/dog relationships. I realize that very young kids may take to this film, but don't they really deserve better?
