Film Review – Eat Pray Bark

When one encounters a title like “Eat Pray Bark,” a certain type of movie immediately comes to mind. And co-writer/director Marco Petry is perfectly happy to deliver such a viewing experience, going big hearted and puddle deep with the offering, which follows the concerns and confusion of travelers looking to make sense of pet behavior with help from a special trainer. The picture intends to be a comedy, soaking up character quirks and strange situations in the Tyrolian mountains, but the German production isn’t fully prepared to deliver laughs. Petry offers a lighter touch instead, going very easy on the senses with mild dramatic entanglements and personal issues. “Eat Pray Bark” isn’t something that demands attention, but for viewers interested in a gentle distraction partially highlighting the world of canine behavior, this is at least a capably acted feature, and some of the open world locations can’t be beat.
