Here are review links for this film submitted by our members:
- [New] | Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat @ Spirituality & Practice
- Excerpt: A haunted house story that gives us a different perspective on illness and death through the eyes of a dog.
- Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
- Excerpt: Leonberg and his producer wife have created a startlingly original and technically astounding new film by coaxing their dog, Indy…on a closed set, editing that performance into their supernatural narrative with chilling, and ultimately moving, effect.
- Mark Hobin @ Fast Film Reviews
- Excerpt: An effective horror movie because it relies on the intense love we feel for a beloved pet. Indy the dog gives a performance that conveys every moment of dread.
- Kat Hughes @ THN
- MaryAnn Johanson @ FlickFilosopher.com
- Excerpt: A haunted house movie from the dog’s perspective. No cheap gimmick but an absolute marvel, strikingly original and deeply affecting. An interspecies love story without a lick of phony sentimentality.
- Kristian Lin @ Fort Worth Weekly
- Excerpt: Oh whistle and I’ll come to you, my lad, unless you’re a monster.
- Mike McGranaghan @ The Aisle Seat
- Excerpt: Indy the dog is a legitimate force onscreen.
- Jared Mobarak @ Hey, have you seen …?
- Excerpt: It’s an enjoyable film with a flawed premise since the dog’s indifference to the supernatural prevents the house from being haunted. This is a dog trying to avoid Death’s obstacles to give his owner one final hug.
- Eddie Pasa @ DC Filmdom
- Excerpt: Good Boy works wonders with its bi-level approach to horror, metaphorically reframing illness as a fiendish monster and literally reframing how we experience said monster by putting us at dog’s-eye view.
- Nuno Reis @ Antestreia [Portuguese]
- Excerpt: O Mal toma muitas formas. Mas o Bem… o Bem será sempre um cão.
- Sebastian Zavala @ MeGustaElCine.com [Spanish]
- Excerpt: What could very well have been a film that relied too heavily on a novel premise, actually ends up being a palpable and well-crafted horror experience, where the dog’s presence as the protagonist doesn’t feel forced at all.
