This Fall... Earth is going to the dogs! Boy meets dog. Boy falls in love with dog. Dog turns out to be from another planet and must return there when it becomes clear that his species' mission to take over the Earth has been an utter failure. Anyone who has ever loved -- and especially loved and lost -- a dog will find something to like in "Good Boy!," a sweet-natured family comedy about a kid (Liam Aiken) who doesn't want to lose his pet (voiced by Matthew Broderick), even if it's to a UFO. More than just another talking-animal picture to tickle the funny bone, "Good Boy!" actually touches the heart.
