Loved it, loved Molly ShannonJust a really good movie. Molly Shannon was great..Score: 5/5

Depressing and boring....Great poster art and a deccent cast led me to expect a good movie; categorized under comedy, I was expecting a good laugh. What I got was depressed in the first twenty minutes with the death of the dog, and the tone never changes. This woman's slow decent to insanity doesn't make for comedy in my book. The overall dark tone was the only theme that this movie pulled together...I felt like there were too many sub-plots going on to provide one concise message. Bottom line, save your $3.00.Score: 1/5

AMAZINGThis film was a wonderful surprise, with Molly Shannon shining as the lead. This touching tale of finding out what motivates you and what makes you feel loved will make you laugh and perhaps cry. From beginning to end it is right on the money and is definetely worth a rental or purchase! I wish that more movies were this thoughtful and touching while at the same time being coherent and uplifting..Score: 5/5

Don't do itFirst itunes movie rental and what a waste. Nothing was redeeming about this movie. Kept waiting for it to get better and it didn't. We are dog lovers and it was awful. One star (lowest rating) is too much..Score: 1/5

Really badWow, this movie was really bad..Score: 1/5

This movie is problematicThis movie has no point.Score: 1/5

Awsome!I don't really watch a lot of movies, unless i hear that it is very good. I have never heard of this movie, but took a risk renting it here after watching the trailer. it is one of the best movies i have seen in.. well.. ever. :D.Score: 5/5

Horrible!This movie was terrible. My Grandma rented this movie to watch and definitely not a comedy. The only funny part was when she drove home with all those dogs. Do not watch this movie. This should have been called Year Of The Psycho..Score: 1/5

DepressingThis was one of the most depressingly sad movies I have seen in a long time. It is not, I repeat not, a comedy. It was just odd and if you are an animal lover or not I think you will find this movie very sad..Score: 1/5

Skip itThis movie should not be in the comedy category. this is one of the sadest and stupidest films i have ever seen. if i could give it less than one star i would. don't waste your time on this one..Score: 1/5

Magyar
Peggy és Pencil elválaszthatatlan társak az életben. Együtt alszanak, együtt esznek, de még a péntek esti filmeket is együtt nézik. Az élet számukra tökéletes, egyszerű, boldog és biztonságos. Nem csoda, ha Peggy soha nem szeretne elválni legkedvesebb barátjától aki történetesen négylábú és a tacskók családjába tartozik. Az élet azonban kegyetlen, és Peggy boldogságát egy pillanat alatt darabokra zúzza, amikor kiderül, hogy Pencil titokzatos körülmények között elpusztult a szomszéd kertjében. A lány a szörnyű sorscsapást csak nehezen tudja kiheverni. Sokáig tart, amíg rászánja magát, hogy újra rendbehozza az életét, megtalálja a helyét a világban és képes legyen újra a boldogságra. Családja, barátai és munkatársai próbálnak segíteni neki, és Peggy lassan kezdi felfedezni maga körül az embereket is. Csakhogy ez az új felfedezés nem mindig örömteli, és a lány egyre inkább úgy érzi, hogy ha kevesebbet szeretne csalódni, újra az állatokra kell fordítania az energiáit.

He hopes to change everything by befriending former high school hero Oliver Lawless (James Marsden) and convincing him to show up at their class reunion.
