Reviews for Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey
Top CriticIt'll leap up at you, lick you in the face, then curl up in your lap and stay there, soft and warm and content.

It has a certain craftsmanship and an undeniable charm, and if you find yourself watching it with a child you may end up liking it almost as much.

Not a perfect film, but generally one that should please adults and children.

A sprightly little entertainment that should enthrall tots without straining the patience of their parents.

Top CriticThis film is clever even with its human actors, dispensing with the first film's animal-loving hermits and playing up the importance of a cute, newly typical American family.

Top CriticMatters are accomplished by director Duwayne Dunham with fairly professional skill.
