I agree about the way the characters and their intentions were presented. That was a missed opportunity to bring the viewer in more deeply. I really wanted to like this film, but it just left me empty. The people were so one-dimensional and superficial that I didn't really care what happened to them. The dogs were much more sympathetic characters than the people! The family dog lived in a small tiled patio among his own poop, with practically no shelter from the elements. The cousins' dogs lived under constant reminders of their mortality, in the form of stuffed taxidermy heads of every dog who ever lived there before them. It's not a bad film, but I'm not sure it's deserving of all the attention it has gotten.
