I have been waiting for this for ages and finally it's in the theaters here! Worth the wait, definitely. An excellent film with real characters and a story that feels absolutely true. I really loved the dialogue, touching and very funny too at times. My favorite part however was how Felix compared dogs and people in a way that you can never know what they think and dream, you can only imagine. That is so true, I've come to realise that in a way I never thought I would.

I would love to see this move. Unfortunately, it is limited release and is not available where I live.

Does nyone understand the release process?

Will I ever be able to see this movie?

Thanks

I guess what you are saying is, since DeNiro and Pacino have done such brilliant movies in the past, that gives them a pass to do crap in thier later years. Maybe you're right, I don't know. But I would rather see DeNiro do nothing than to see him in movies like "Rocky and Bullwinkle"

The Deniro Pacino thing is void for me. Look, considering their brilliance over 40 years, nothing can undo that work. Nothing.

I think De Niro just decided to start following the paychecks and let his quality control monitor run out of batteries. I think he has somewhat squandered his reputation quite a bit since about 1995 onwards.

I kinda suspect the same of Pacino, but to a slightly lesser degree as he still hasn't had quite the same prolific output the last ten years or so compared to De Niro.

Hackman's retired. You won't see him in anymore movies unless he returns to acting. And i agree with you on how DeNiro and Pacino should return to better work. I mean DeNiro is one of my favorite actors.

Stardust was great and so was De Niro in it, IMO. Can't disagree with the others, but oh well.

BTW we also shouldn't forget Nicholson – accuse him of overacting all you want, but he gave a couple of great performances in the last decade. About Schmidt especially – that was brilliant. Great in The Departed too and fine job in everything else.

Hackman I will let slide, he's friggin' 80 years old.

I'll give Pacino: Angels in America and You don't know Jack, but I'm not sure that makes up for Righteous Kill, 88 Minutes, Two for the Money, The Recruit, and Simone.

Hey maja, Righteous Kill, Stardust, Hide and Seek, Godsend, Showtime, The Score, 15 Minutes…These are not comedies…they are crap!

Other people have told me the same thing. I need to check that one out.

DeNiro went to a different route in the last 10 years, obviously to do more comedy. Many would say comedy roles are actually tougher than dramatic ones so I wouldn't exactly critisise him for taking a big risk and trying to go a new direction.

I'm becoming more and more interested in this movie as time passes. Don't think it'll get released theatrically here, but it's at the top of my "to watch" list.

Pacino was great in You Don't Know Jack, even though it was his first great performance since Insomnia.

When's the last time DeNiro or Pacino has done work like this? Or Hackman? Congrats to Duvall for still gutting it out and giving us first class acting his whole life.
