Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Right up the alley of people who start the Christmas movies early and parents and kids watching together. Made to be watched with the tree lit. Same wavelength as A Christmas Story.
The mood
Feel-good.
The pace
Lively and easy to follow, at 1 hr 22 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
What might put you off
Skip it if you want something with an edge.

When the CIA discovers a cute orphan puppy with amazing telepathic abilities, the powers-that-be in Washington immediately lock him down and plan on forcing the poor dog to become a covert secret weapon. But fate steps in and frees the pint-sized Jack Russel Terrier from government clutches
