Positives... 
- Kodi Smit-McPhee continues to prove his versatility as an actor here. 
- The bonding between the boy and the wolf (dog) is truly engaging. 
- Cinematography and the visuals in general are excellent. 
- Plot premise is pretty simple, but it's still effective enough to provide us with an epic story. 
- As it is to be expected, there are some good emotional scenes in the movie. 
- Looks like it's more than just a big budgeted dramatization of what prehistoric times could be like. 

Negatives... 
- Sometimes it looks like it's just a big budget dramatization of what prehistoric times could be like. 
- I admit to feeling a bit bored during the first quarter of the movie. 
- Kinda panders too much towards dog lovers more than it probably should have. 
- Multiple scenes might take more suspension of disbelief that you would expect.
