Herman Eloff quote iconI really enjoyed the film and left the cinema feeling just a little bit lighter than before I went in, and that alone makes this film worth a trip to the cinema.

Leon van Nierop quote iconVeral diereliefhebbers, wat nie A Dog’s Journey en A Dog’s Way Home gesien het nie, mag emosionele trane-gimnastiek uitvoer.
