One of the smartest things I did this year was give this film a 2nd chance viewing. Initially, I didn’t give Good Boy the attention it deserved but saw other critics raving about how good it was. I went back in for round 2 and was knocked off my feet. Indy (the dog) carries this film with an adorable, heartwarming while terrifying performance. I just to wanted to reach through the screen and save Indy from all the bad things and you will too!

Check out our review to get all the deets about Indy and what made make their film and the performances so endearing.

Final Score:8

The best thing about Good Boy is the dog Indy, and since Indy is the star that's all that matters. This paranormal thriller will have pet owners and dog lovers in their feelings by the end, and where the film falls short in special effects it still hits you in the heart with Indy's performance.
