3.0 out of 5 stars A Boy and His Dog Fight to Survive, 1 Oct 2008
By Mark Baker (Santa Clarita, CA United States) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Far From Home - The Adventures Of Yellow Dog [DVD] [1994] (DVD)
Growing up in the Pacific Northwest, young Angus McCormick (Jesse Bradford) has learned many survival skills. He's just finishing up a nice canoe. And when he finds a stray dog, he adopts him and names him Yellow.

Taking a few days off from school to accompany his dad, John (Bruce Davison), on a supply run seems like a dream come true. But when they encounter a fierce storm, the boat they are in capsizes. John is quickly rescued, but the search and rescue teams can't find any trace of Angus or Yellow.

The two have survives and are trying to find their way back to civilization. Will they be able to survive and be reunited with their family?

This movie is fairly standard and innocuous family fare. It is a little slow at times, especially in the beginning while things are set up. It is fairly predictable. But it is entertaining. Kids will enjoy it more than their parents. My biggest complaint was actually the short scenes. Many things are introduced and resolved too quickly, never giving any plot point time to be fully developed. At the same time, I did eventually get caught up in the emotions and found the ending satisfying.

The film could have been much better but does grow on you. Don't rush out to see it, but there's no reason to avoid it either.

3.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable movie for the family!, 26 Jun 2009
This review is from: Far From Home - The Adventures Of Yellow Dog [DVD] [1994] (DVD)
I bought this for my girlfriend and though it's not usually the type of movie I usually see I quite liked this one.It's about a boy who is stranded with his dog and they have to stick together in order to survive.

I won't spoil much but the ending is upsetting.I think children 13 and under will love it!
