- Kinda feels like a Disney setup.
- Super cool, super fun.

- Oh, they nailed the ending.
- I really enjoyed the dramas Beyond Evil and Life on Mars, and turns out the same director and writer worked on Good Boy. No wonder it’s exactly my taste—so funㅋㅋㅋ
- It was boring the whole time, but the last 5 minutes were funㅋㅋㅋ
