A really solid Spanish film with a big heart. It just falls short of being something truly amazing, but it still very worth your time.
I love a good road trip movie, and Seventeen started really strongly. Who doesn't love dogs and the prospect of an inspiring feel-good story? It hooked me from the beginning, though lost its way in the middle half. Unfortunately, my attention started to wane, and as a result, the ending didn't land the powerful impact on me it otherwise would have.
The performances were good though, and I loved the whole premise. The scenery was spectacular and all the dogs beautiful! It's enough to make you want to go adopt dogs from your nearest shelter - or alternatively book a trip to the north of Spain.
If you like dogs, Spanish films and tales of brotherly love, then I highly recommend Seventeen. An easy watch with some smiles and a lot of heart.
