This 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. Full Review |

Even the most televisionally overstimulated will likely enjoy this boy-and-his-dog movie -- which also happens to be a girl-and-her-cat movie too. Full Review |

It'll leap up at you, lick you in the face, then curl up in your lap and stay there, soft and warm and content. Full Review |

|
As an episode of The Wonderful World of Disney, it would be fine, but as a major motion picture, it's disappointing. Full Review |
|||
|
Not a perfect film, but generally one that should please adults and children. Full Review |

Matters are accomplished by director Duwayne Dunham with fairly professional skill. Full Review |
