This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies
A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
I love it!

English horror scribe James Herbert's horror novels have proved difficult to adapt to the motion picture medium. "The Survivor", a brilliant novel that was ripped off by Peter Weir's "Fearless" and a handful of other movies, was a rotten pile of smoking crap. George Cosmatos's "Dark Eyes", based on Herbert's groundbreaking "The Rats", was almost unwatchable and totally unconvincing. Shifting its events from London to Canada (standing in for a US city) was its first cardinal sin. At least "Fluke" retains some of the Herbert novel's heart; it is much lighter, but it eliminates one of the novel's greatest scenes (the dog meeting a frog). It takes the character of Fluke (a human reborn as a dog) and some thematic elements from the novel, but it doesn't adhere to much else. Still, it's a well told story (with some mushy interludes) about a reincarnated man (on four legs) who attempts to reconcile with his loved ones and, in the process, is forced to accept some harsh truths about himself. The confronting of these harsh truths is what gives "Fluke" its depth and originality. The animals communicate telepathically, so we hear human voices over images of dogs with mouths that don't move much; the concept takes some getting used to, and it didn't really work for me. The interchanges themselves were fine, but the voices felt disembodied (though not as disembodied as the voice-over in the dreadful "Jonathan Livingston Seagull"). The performances of Mathew Modine and Eric Stolz are solid, as are the canine star turns. This is one of the better Herbert adaptations in that it is a decently made movie, but it still doesn't capture Herbert's bleak world view.
I think, in my opinion, the film doesn't always need to include humans in every time. It can include the animals too. When I first saw this movie in the television, well... this is the first time a family movie packed with the animals that could ever touch my heart... I felt so...touched. I don't even know what must I say to give this comment! Actually, most event that could touch my heart is the dog's love... I don't know the exact situation about that dog, because I didn't watch it from the first time beginning. It some kinds like their father's reincarnation, or the others..., I guess. But I'm sure, that in the deepest meaning of this film, there's a love, and a responsibility between the family, although their 'father' is the dog.Yeah, that's it! Love will never be matched or even equaled by the other thing in this world. There's always be a connection, between the father, mother, and the child / children. And I like the film which can tell me that all!!!!! Example, this film!!!!! But, so pity. I ever expected that the ending of the film can be more happy and so touching... But... well, y'know, it's a little bit of disappointing!!!!! But, it wouldn't matter. I recognize what kinds of effort that they've done to make this film seems more touchable..........
Having just looked at this, small, understated movie, I am totally knocked out by it. Here we have a movie that teaches us something about ourselves, life and love. It does not bombard us with visual effects, nor does it try to be anything but what it really is, a beautiful movie. From all of the actors,from the leads and even smaller parts, even the old bag lady, compliment this movie. Fluke works is so many ways, with a score that is matched with perfect photography. Special credit must go to the dog trainers and the director, it must have been such a joy to see this film coming together and completed into such a great and special movie. I fully intent to buy this on DVD, and to read the book. As an animal lover and a fan of all the adult leads, voice actors as well, this was a pleasure to watch and a movie that deserved to smash all box office records. Yet even if it did not, I am sure it will live on in the memories of all of the people who have seen it, for many years to come, and will get better with each viewing. Well done Fluke.
