Although I hate watching any abuse against dogs, I know abuse truly exist and we need to acknowledge that, so we can do something to stop it.
I think people need to look at the intended message that the writers are trying to convey in this movie.
The message is that "Animal abuse is NOT ok".
I thought it was pretty funny when needed and pretty sad at times... But the message was clear in the end. The dogs got their revenge and they won.
Not for children though. But for adults, I liked it. So did my husband.
They guy got what he deserved in the end. Happy about that.
