Not that great
lisamba26 July 2021
I thought this might be a good movie with the cover looking cool but the script was weak and it dragged in the beginning. The main character supposed to be high school but he is 32 years old. He acts like he is supposed to be cool but most of the time he looked geeky and not a very good actor and voice way too low to be high school. Supporting characters are not any better at acting either. Just a lot of poor acting!

My mom is in the CIA and it is a secret.
nogodnomasters29 October 2020
Warning: Spoilers
Joshua's mother is in the CIA and is kidnapped by Russian agents while buying bio weapons. Joshua must transfer to a rival school and live with strangers in a safe house. Joshua (Daniel Knudsen) doesn't trust them and goes on a mission with a girl from school and his dog Oreo to solve the case.

This is a film for aimed at young males, a lot younger than the kids in the feature. Predictable, bad accents.

Guide: No swearing, sex, or nudity.

My mom is a spy
bkoganbing7 March 2021
All American kid Daniel Knudsen learning to fly also learns his mom whom he thought was an accountant was crunching numbers for the CIA. And some bad guys kidnap her.

I saw this broadcast on Christian television and there was little religious reference for that kind of film. What there was though was a most incoherent plot that at times defied rationality.

Also at the beginning Knudsen takes in a stray dog and you think you're going to see a boy/dog picture. But the dog himself becomes a superfluous part of the plot. Considering the title is Sky Dog, there's lots ofsky and little of the dog.

Not a good family film.

Laughable
Rebekahjanel5 November 2020
I can't even muster the words to describe this pile of garbage. Who funded this nonsense? Did a child of 3 write the screenplay? Awful. Dean Cain doesn't even try anymore, I don't think he ever did. Terrible pile of trash.

terrible move
mmartin28625 May 2021
1st why would Dean Cain ever want to do this?

2nd. Who told Daniel Knudsen that he's a good writer and actor?

Terrible acting and horrible story.

THE ACTING IS ABSOLUTELY ABYSMAL!!!
mypetpeeveisyou24 February 2021
They header says it all. Bad acting all the way around from start to finish. The main character finds a dog who adds absolutely no value to the movie. The stunts were sub par. The movie just moved very slowly. Again the acting was horrible. Waste of time. I wondered throughout the movie was it a foreign movie with bad voice overs.

CIA? Really?
philfeeley8 November 2020
The main criticism of this film is that the CIA is barred by law from functioning in the U.S. The FBI handles domestic terrorism cases.

Wooden actor
Maryjnberry7 April 2022
The best thing about this movie is the dog! The boy supposedly being senior in High School, should have placed him in college instead. The supporting actors are just as wooden as the main character. I blame the story line and the boy playing the main character.

I loved this movie and here's why
ducker-707945 March 2021
Warning: Spoilers
If you love b rated movies well you're not in luck because this is far below that. As someone stated below this movie is absolutely abysmal. The dog and cole or Josh's (whatever tf his name is (who cares)) just absolutely made me cringe and I swear the dog was active in only like 7 scenes. Also Josh, I hate your sea shell necklace and I just wanted to tear it off every time I saw it. Homie looked like he was from the 90s but with an iPhone. Also why they gotta go to the library to use their laptop. Like wtf bro. Also the bomb hazard logo had me cracking up lol. Anyways 10/10 would watch again.

good plot, needed some polishing
dc-0769219 March 2022
There's some issues with acting, lines, abrupt transitions, etc. But the plot was interesting and it had good characters. After it got going it was a pretty good movie.

Pathetic!!!!!!!!!!!!
exskycruiser14 April 2021
Where in the world did this movie come from? First off the dog caught our attention and off we went to start watching, however the dog is completely different in the thumbnail for the movie than what was actually in the movie. The acting is horrendous. The writing seems as though is was written by a 7th grader who was fulfilling a project requirement for school and hello the CIA is a foreign spy agency. Anything domestic is handled by the FBI. Throughout the movie there are so many inaccuracies. My husband and two daughters completely wasted two hours of our lives. Finally what did Dean Cain do to deserve such punishment? I have lost all respect.

Worst Movie Ever
carter1144822 May 2021
Badly written and poorly acted. Worst mover ever! The Christian plot was thin. Only supported by Christian music.

A feel good movie in a world of chaos today :)
Diane_AZ29 October 2020
I hadn't heard of this movie, thought oh well a "kid's movie" but by the time it ended I was so glad I spent the time watching it! The dog was carried around a lot and didn't get to do much which I felt a bit bad about but I got past that. The story all in all, a nerdie teenage boy suddenly finding out his parents were CIA agents, his name wasn't even Josh, it was Colt Lifestone and he has a US Passport to prove it! And a CIA agent and his shrew of a wife who were responsible for his mom getting caught by the terrorists are given the job of watching over him (!); wife keeps wanting to "take care of the problem kid"! Add in a great guy friend and a nerdie cute girlfriend along with the agent who is a good friend of his parents who also is in love with his mom. Dean Cane ("Superman") appears in here too. I found it time well spent and recommend it to those looking for family oriented movies that want to feel good when the movie is over. Wait til you see the "reward" Colt gets at the end! Wow! :)

Good family-film with a strong plot
melbournehouse23 October 2020
If you are looking for a well made clean family-film, this movie is a good option. It's a genre movie for sure. The storyline was pretty strong and the performances are all solid. If you aren't looking for a fun family movie this isn't for you; if you want one, it's perfect.
