    I saw A Dog's Purpose and it was fine, nothing to write home about really, very conventional hackneyed narrative you'd expect from such a film, and one part of it felt very out of place with the others and badly paced, but it was fine.

    However, when sitting in a cinema watching it with a screen about 60% full, I noticed everybody in this screen was weeping or crying. I've never seen anything like it before, I can only presume they were all dog people, but even so, it didn't do much for me. Any of you lot seen it?





    I have a cat alright.

    I found it more enjoyable than sad. I was expecting Marley & Me type of sadness but nope it's not on that scale. I suppose Marley & Me is shown from the owners point of view which many people can identify with, A Dog's Purpose is from the dog's point of view which isn't as relatable.


    That said I did enjoy the movie, there were some heart warming parts in it and actually some funny parts in it.

    Apparently the allegations were false.
