Brilliant

Loved it every minute can't wait for another one. Bit quirky in places but that was one of its many charms - sort of you like it, you don't and then you do and then suddenly you are smiling and don't know why - not sure what it reminds me of, either way I love the style. Loved the characters some larger than life some real and what can I say about OTTO - a complete fruit cake and a half. Subject was really interesting and the first time I've seen anyone dare cover it from an alternative pointof view. For too long animal rights activists have been silently taking over and this film turns the spot light on them in a good light hearted comical way. It puts across the point everyone looses in these cases really well and try's to open intelligent debate. Can't recommend it enough. And for those that want to make their own minds its been released on Vimeo here https://vimeo.com/89850911

Very Enjoyable indie film

A great British indie film. The film has some great characters and the villain reminds me of the classic old school villain. The story line has a good flow and shows how some so called professional bodies are not perfect. The acting from these unknown actors are very good and there are some great outstanding performances. The story flows nicely with you wanting to know what happens next. It seems well written with great effort given to facts rather than fiction. It's also nice to see a film not full of over the top vigilance which most films at the moment seem to be full of. I recommend people watch the film and to make there own minds up about how people are treated with no true facts about how they treat there pets and can be unfairly treated. It should be up for many awards for its bravery on showing the truth. I recommend true pet lovers to watch this film as it's an eye opener.

Appalling!

I came across this film through a concerned colleague and can honestly say I wasted an hour of my life watching this badly acted, factually inaccurate account of what happens when dogs are seized. This film seems to be one person's attack on the authorities, making out they are all crooks, work illegally and the owners are all angels! Think Eldorado for the acting and plot line(but 10 times worse)! If the purpose of the film is to either entertain, or highlight what happens when complaints are made regarding dogs (I believe the producer is friends with a number of people who have experience of dogs being seized) then it does neither. Don't waste your time, and certainly don't believe it is an accurate account of what happens!
