I read the book and the film is as good as the good. The film really follows the book's plot.
Also the film has some really good acting in it.this is one of the best dog films ever made.

Rather surprising, didn't think I'd like it much, but had to watch it since it has 'Winn-Dixie' in the title, and that's my favorite grocery store.

The lead girl is great at keeping the story interesting and letting everything flow. This movie fills me with happiness even though it features much melancholy. Everyone in the movie is amazing. It is a heartwarming movie. Overall Rating:76

Tries too hard to be a light-hearted combo of Old Yeller and Air Bud, yet comforts with typical southern hospitality.

Cute movie about a little girl that befriends a dog that form a unique friendshipt that is hilarious and touching. Simple but nice to watch and enjoyable for the kids. :)

One of those movies that improves upon multiple viewings. The first time I watched it, my reaction was less than impressed; it struck me as a little odd. The second time around though I appreciated it for its genuinely good mix of emotion. The film has depth, something rare in most of the films that have a child star. Anna Sophia Robb brings excellent character and expression to the character of Opal, and the story is pulled off without being hokey. Some great thoughts and feelings about human nature seen through the eyes of a child.

Oh, I liked Because of Winn-Dixie. I can ignore the many faults. Well, except that there's a difference between rats and mice, and for some reason, watching a movie where the characters repeatedly call rats mice makes it nearly impossible for me to maintain suspension of disbelief. But if I turn my bitch completely off (like I could REALLY do that), well, then yeah, I like this cute, fuzzy-wuzzy movie with the giant-eyeballs girl and the smiling dog.

Opal (AnnaSophia Robb), is a 10-year-old girl who has just moved to a small town in Florida with her preacher father (Jeff Daniels). The move has caused Opal to lose all her friends, and now she must start all over again. Life has been a little tough for Opal, since her mother abandoned them when she was three. Opal's father asks her to pick up a few items for dinner at the Winn-Dixie supermarket. While in the store, a big dog is running loose in the store with clerks chasing after him. The store manager wants to call the dog pound, but Opal says that the dog is hers, and his name is Winn-Dixie. Opal take the dog home, and must convince her father to keep the dog. He agrees to keep the dog temporarily, until a new owner can be found. They go around town putting up posters of the dog, and later in the day Opal goes around and takes the posters down, because she secretly wants to keep the dog. Opal discovers that Winn-Dixie is able to make friends with everyone he meets, and now Opal has some new friends, because of Winn-Dixie.

I missed the middle of this movie, but what I saw I liked. Great story and great cast hopefully I can watch the whole thing sometime. I'm sure I'll end up rating it higher then.





I was finally able to watch the complete movie. I had to threaten bodily harm to watch it in peace and silence.

It was a all around great movie. It has it's happy moments and it's sad ones, an A+ story, and a wonderful cast including Jeff Daniels and AnnaSophia Robb.

Strangely, I watched this movie one morning with a dog. He seemed to like the parts when the dog was on the screen.
