A Dog’s Journey

I watched A Dog’s Journey. It is the sequel to A Dog’s Purpose. They both are based books by W. Bruce Cameron. No, I haven’t read the books. The movie has Josh Gad, Dennis Quaid, Kathryn Prescott, Marg Helgenberger, Henry Lau, Betty Gilpin, Abby Ryder Fortson, Ian Chen, Johnny Galecki, and Jake Manley.

Big Warning: Have tissues ready.

In this movie Bailey saves Ethan’s granddaughter CJ from a horse. Then CJ’s mother decides to take CJ to New York with her. Just as Bailey is dying, Ethan tells him to find CJ and look after her. So he does when he becomes other dogs. He does find her and tries to protect her. He learns about detecting cancer and he saves Trent’s life. In the end CJ and Trent get married and have a girl of their own. Bailey is there when Ethan dies and then he dies and goes to heaven with him.

I loved this movie. Next week I’m watching Wildling.

A Dog’s Purpose

I watched A Dog’s Purpose. It is based on a book series by W. Bruce Cameron. (I haven’t read the books yet.) I taped the movie when it was on Showtime. It has
Josh Gad, Dennis Quaid, Peggy Lipton, Bryce Gheisar, K.J. Apa, Juliet Rylance,
Luke Kirby, Gabrielle Rose, and Michael Bofshever.

Big Warning: there are some sad parts.

In this movie, a dog named Bailey gets caught by a dog catcher and gets rescued by Ethan and his mother. They have Bailey for many years until he dies. Then Bailey is reborn into different lives of many other dogs until he finds himself back to Ethan as another dog.

I sorta liked this movie. Next week I’m watching A Dog’s Journey. It’s the sequel and the second book of the book series.
