    Terrible movie, never watch it.

    This is a really bad waste of your time. I would probably rather go watch some documentary than this; it's really that bad.

    The acting is really terrible, and you can tell that the producers had a low budget because of the terrible picture quality. It's by far on the low end of the scale; don't waste your money on it.

    I have a really hard time believing the person who made this movie that it would fare well. I had to watch it with the kids when my mother rented it because she thought it would be good for the kids. Even the kids (3, 4, 6, and 8) all thought it was pretty boring.

    I agree with the other commenter, Spongebob would be a lot better to watch than this.

    Overall: Just don't watch it. Don't. Don't.

    The worst movie I have ever seen

    My wife rented this movie and then conveniently never got to see it. If I ever want to torture her I will make her watch this movie. I've watched many movies with my 4 year old and I can take almost anything. Barney is refreshing after a shot of Quigley.

    The plot, dialog, cinematography, & acting were one step above (or equal to) a cheap porn film. I feel cheated out of $3.69 that we paid to rent it and then 90 minutes of my life I will never get back. I will say my 4 year old liked it, luckily it was a rental we had to return right away.

    I just hope that the younger actor's careers are not ruined from being in this movie.

    Poor quality film-making

    While the dog was cute, the film was not. It wasn't the premise, or the theme that was a problem. The premise had great possibilities for humor and pathos both. The theme is a worthy one. Helping other people is more important than amassing a fortune.

    Sadly, the adorable dog, the unique premise, and the theme were undercut by poor acting, stilted dialogue, and amateurish filming.

    Even my youngest child who will sit through almost anything gave up before we had gotten halfway through. How many times can that dog run up and down the same hallway? I can't spoil it for you, as I never saw the end. It just was not worth watching all the way to the end.

    Very cute and funny.

    Very seldom do I or my family go to the movies but we do rent a lot of movies once they are released to the general public.

    This movie will never be one of the all time greats. However, it is well done and very cute. I would have never thought of Gary Busey in this move, but the character he plays fits right in with the villain type roles he is usually in.

    I think the entire point of this move is "you reap what you sow." In that regard it promotes good moral values and enforces the saying "do unto others what you would have them do unto you."

    My wife and I, as well as two of our grandchildren enjoyed this movie and didn't feel it was a waste of money to rent it.

    One of the corniest movies that you will ever see

    If you ever plan on renting (hopefully not buying) this movie, think again. It was as if Gary Busey had a gun to his head and was forced to act or die. I only wonder if Busey was arrested for something and was sentenced to play in this movie because I just don't see the guy that acted so much better with Keanu Reeves in Point Break play in this disaster. It was a feel-good movie, but there are thousands of other feel-good movies that make you laugh without wanting you to get your money back.

    The only reason I would ever tell someone to rent this movie is to watch this movie is to see Gary Busey jump up and down like a monkey. If you want a good funny movie, pass up Quigley and go rent Spongebob or something.

    • Trivia
      Gary Busey reportedly threw a fit on set because the set of heaven didn't look like the "real" heaven, which Busey claimed to have seen after almost dying in a motorcycle accident 1988. His fit became a fist fight when another actor, who also claimed to have seen the real heaven, disagreed with Busey's description, and production was shut down for the day.
