This is a wonderful film despite the dog's voice - couldn't they find someone other than Kevin Costner to do the voice? The pick of Milo Ventimiglia to play Denny Swift was a good choice. The book was great - the movie very good. I do recommend everyone see this film - it's funny and heart-rending.
