The resurrection of the soul with other bodies after death, and the repetition of this cycle is called Reincarnation.

Although I am not one of those who believe that this kind of transmigration exists, the 2017 film A Dog's Purpose deals with Reincarnation through a dog spirit and presents it to the audience as a wonderful family, friendship, comedy and loyalty movie.
The lead dog character adapts to the life of the family he is adopted and becomes a +1 member of the family. It can be thought of as joining a family of 3 as 3+1.
I am not surprised that those who have pets at home see their pet as a member of the family because it has become a member of our family for my daughter and me; we have the cat. When the pet is seen as a part of the family, you enjoy every activity you do with it more.
The movie A Dog's Purpose reflects the positive aspects of having a pet and seeing it as part of the family. Every time the dog dies and comes back to life with another dog body, it offers us the opportunity to be a guest of more than one life. He makes positive contributions to every family he adopts and manages to be a part of them.
The dog whose memories of its previous life are still kept alive when it comes back to life; He manages to combine the dog character he started in the movie A Dog's Purpose with the dog character he said goodbye to the movie. Although multiple and different stories are exhibited from this perspective, at the end of the movie, the stories focus on a single story.
Leaving aside the subject of Reincarnation, which is covered in the movie, it offers content that can be watched as a family and that can instill a love of pets in children. But since the subjects of faith are sensitive and have high moral value; I don't know how you and your children will react to reincarnation. I let my daughter watch it and I explained that this is a movie in a few movies we watched before. I'm sure he understands his understanding and knows that the movie he's watching isn't always going to reflect reality.
The best part I liked in the movie; While presenting different stories, they succeed in combining the stories under one roof and reflecting the adventure aspect. Maybe the script can be criticised, but I exclude the director of the film, Lasse Hallström. Except for the Reincarnation part, which I abstained from, he managed to reflect the story to the audience quite well.
Is it possible to scale with quality to achieve great work in times of simplicity and limited resources? I think that expectation will also play a role in this. I have kept my expectations low for family movies because there is no need for high budgets and well-known celebrities. Good things can be accomplished with limited resources. The screen is a reflection tool and the important thing is to reflect the work done to the viewer in the best way.
I see A Dog's Purpose as a reflection of a job well done.
