Am I the only one who thinks the kid is annoying?

I agreed the kid was really loud and his constant screaming was unnecessary. I mean the dog to be honest wasn't that scary, had it been a alien or a bear yeah, but a dog that was just nuts, no. I felt bad for the dog though that his owner was so stupid and didn't get him to the vet.

I'm glad I'm not the only one!! He just pisses me off, I would have told him. Look kid, I know your scared but right now you need to shut the beep up before I feed you to the doggy!!! lol Just kidding, but he does annoy the hell out of me. Just the looks on his face, I think the kid should have been a little girl and it wouldnt of been so bad!

Glad I'm not the only one who thought this. His constant screaming, balling, whining drove me crazy! I have watched the entire movie but can't anymore b/c of this.
It's like the little girl in "Aliens. Great, great fun movie but her damn screaming gets old in a hurry! -

Okay, how would you feel, if you were only six years old, your mother had been bitten by a 200 pound dog covered in blood and guts and you were practically in the middle of nowhere with no help and no hope? No offence.
"The kid" wasn't annoying. "The kid" was brilliant and acted just perfectly. -

The kid was annoying as hell, but that added a bit to the car scenes. I can't stand movies when a child suddenly acts like a war veteran in a stressful situation. It felt very realistic and the restaint and poise of the mother was incredible. I probably would have yelled at or backhanded the kid.

I think you're a jackass. What is sissyfied about being frightened of a huge mean dog that could tear him apart.
I thought his reactions were very genuine. More so than other movies where kids in scary situations seem way too calm.
I actually think I would have yelled even more if I was his age in that situation. Obviously, not everyone can be as brave as you. Guess me and the kid are both sissies. -

Yea I gotta agree with you here.
When you got a huge dog foaming at the mouth and in a rage trying to tear you to pieces and you're stuck in a little car we'll see how tough you are. My guess is your pants will smell a bit, actually a lot.
The kid thinks of the dog as a monster, you on the other hand will be much more frightened because in short order you're gonna realize that this big ass dog is rabid and there's not gonna be any negotiating with it. It's not gonna go away or stop trying to kill you until you or it is dead.
Now stop crying and be a man, it may die before you starve to deathmaybe.
There's one huge problem with this movie as compared to the book. In the book we can get into the dog's mind as he goes insane which makes it that much more horrifying and you DO pity the dog while you become afraid of it at the same time. That's something that's never really conveyed in the movie, if it can ever be. -

Gotta agree with all of you on this. I thought it was realistic, he's a young kid, how else was he supposed to react to a huge rabid dog trying to tear him to pieces? Was he supposed to grin at it like Jack Lemmon in The Out of Towners? LOL, come on, OP, ANY kid would scared sh-tless in that situation, probably you too. I know if I was a kid, I'd be terrified as well.

Yes. I mean how would the other people who think he was annoying feel if a rabid 200 pound dog was attacking, had attacked their mothers, and was practically in the middle of nowhere with no help and no hope?
Daniel was great ! -

I think Danny did a wonderful job! These days, most child actors can't pull off those kind of reactions. He makes me wanna cry because he looks genuinely scared. I mean he's six for goodness sake; Cujo looks like a monster and his mom was being attacked by the monster; I ask you, how is the six year old suppose to react to that? It doesn't matter whether the kid is a boy or a girl.they're gonna freak out.
