Likes: WOW this another film that just blow me away, seriously if you can not find any heart in this film you have no soul. This is truly one of the most heart felt, emotional funny and damn right Heart warm adventure ive seen in a long time.

The cast of this film with their various role done a great job with the acting, Cara Gee and Omar Sy brought some of the best Heart felt, amazing moments in the film, with some funny moments with buck. Cameo from Karen Gillan who in the film for about 5 mins but the main star Harrison Ford do i really need to tell you, Incredible actor that brought the emotional heart felt to the film with moments that will melt you heart with the special bond with Buck.

This would have never been the same film if they didnt make Buck CGI, because the incredible animation on Buck give him this lovable, courageous Dog with a big heart, you could away tell what buck was thinking with the facial expression the way his eye would look when he was thinking just incredible, its this lovable character you fall in love with straight away from start to finish.

The amazing music and back drop of the mountain ranges and beautiful forest give the film this beautiful visuals that really adds to the beautiful made film, that will make you laugh, feel emotional and bring you to tear in a beautiful told adventure film of a dogs journey to find his true calling.

A film i highly recommend watching if you a dog lover or love these type of adventure film it wont disappoint.         


Dislikes: Some may find the back story of why Harrison ford character is their, while it doesnt really effect the film because the film is more about buck, some might find that a direction. 

Overall: Incredible heart felt amazing journey of a dog with big heart and personality that will melt you heart.

Rating: 5 out of 5 for Entertainment / 10 out of 10 for Adventure story.
