rock dog movie 2017

Bodi (Luke Wilson) is a wide-eyed mastiff without a dream. He spends his days training under his dad Khampa (J.K. Simmons) to take over guarding their village of lovable but idiotic sheep. But hard as Bodi tries, he’s painfully aware that he cannot fill his father’s shoes.

Everything changes the day Bodi discovers the radio (aka “magic singing box”) and becomes infatuated with a thing called “rock ‘n roll.” He has found his dream. But his constant need to make music threatens Khampa’s sanity, and the security of the village. After a heart-to-heart with the town sage Fleetwood (Sam Elliott), Khampa allows Bodi to leave the village and pursue his passion.

Just as Bodi nears his goal of becoming a bona-fide musician, he realizes that his presence in the city has drawn the attention of his father’s old enemy, a wolf gang headed up by Linnux (Lewis Black). Captured by one of Linnux’s henchmen, Riff (Kenan Thompson), Bodi agonizes as the wolves beat a path towards his village. In the end, as Bodi returns to his father’s side to defend his home, everyone comes to discover that music has more power than they ever imagined.
