I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.

Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

This movie was heartbreaking, but inspirational. It is my hope it will bring awareness and stricter laws in all states. I am so thankful Susie survived this horrendous abuse, is loved, and a spokes dog for animal cruelty. Although Donna was severely injured by a pit bull, she knew the dog didn't do it out of meaness, but because of irresponsible and ignorant owners. You don't just tie a dog up and expect him to be social and behave around adults and children, or other animals. Donna has a loving heart, and she and Susie are an inspiration to everyone in working towards an end to the cycle of animal abuse. Thank you for all the love and dedication that went into making this movie a reality.

Susie's Hope was a wonderful, heartwarming story based on the lives of Susie and Donna. You will absolutely need a box of tissues as you will be streaming tears of sadness and joy throughout the film. It is very well done, easy to watch and brings to light a lot of issues within the legal system as well as the horrors of human kind. Anyone can relate to the film and should be seen by everyone. What happened to Susie happens to dogs all over the world and understanding that we as compassionate humans need to speak up for those who have no voice and protect animals because they are all innocent and just need to be loved. A definite MUST SEE for all ages!

I highly recommend this heartwarming story of love, forgiveness & justice for all living creatures! We need more of this kind of positive, compassionate message in the world! It is difficult to understand how anyone could abuse an innocent animal so cruelly but so important to shine a light on this cruelty so it can be stopped and punished. Donna and all who fight for justice are true heroes. We can not change the world overnight...but we can each change our little corner of it. Watching Susie's Hope reminds us of the potential for heroism in each of us and helps inspire us to do whatever it is we can do to "fight the good fight".

Susie's story is compelling, as is Donna Lawrence's. As a resident of Greensboro, where the events took place, I remember well the news accounts of Susie being found nearly dead from her burns and the updates on her condition as the community came together to contribute to the Guilford County Animal Shelter as they helped Susie. The community also rallied around Donna (a dog attack survivor and Susie's adoptive "mom") and Susie to change the animal cruelty laws in North Carolina.This movie is faithful to the spirit of Donna, Susie, and other survivors and those who love them. Keep a handkerchief handy and watch this movie!
