This is an entertaining enough movie. While the violence looks graphic, we are told at the end that no dogs were harmed. Someone is very creative in making it all look real. I assume there are stunt dogs, plus editing and makeup. I assume the TV-14 rating was the result of cute kids being an encouragement for kids to watch. They shouldn't.
Jason Patric does a good job and Walker clearly loves his kids. Drea de Matteo is good too, but her character sees the kids as a burden and uses them to get what she wants. She is not a loving parent.
Sam Shepard is the standout performer here. If there was no other reason to watch, he would be enough.
Bruce Dern also does a good job, and so do the little girls.
Don't watch if you can't stand violence against dogs. But it's still reasonably entertaining.
