While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

What do I need to say? I absolutely adore this movie. I remember seeing it on TV as a little girl and forgetting what it was called, not finding it again until a few years later. One day I saw it on a discount rack at the store and begged my nan to buy it for me.It's actually been a few years since I'd seen it, but I found the DVD in my bookshelf and popped it in for another watch. The story is very sweet and the dog is beautiful. The overall message of the story is wonderful.They really don't sugarcoat Opal's (the protagonist) situation and instead explain how life has both happy and sad moments, and that everyone should be given a chance. It's certainly worth a watch with the family! It does have some sad moments, but it gives the story depth and really makes you understand more about the characters. It will always have a special place in my heart as the dog resembles our old family dog from when I was young.

You know what? This film wasn't bad at all, I was like awed over everything. The story, the plot, the directions, EVERYTHING. So this movie starts off at a shy girl who wants to find someone beloved and clue. And she found Winn-Dixie, a beloved, cheerful puppy who may be afraid of thunderstorms but loves the girl and becomes friends with her. In this coming of age story, the young girl and her dog, Dixie discover exceptional wonders and imaginations and experiences. Later, the girl discovers a helpful woman and accustoms her and as soon as she gets more and more used to her, they start planning a party. But Winn-Dixie suddenly runs off during the start of the party, Opal gets upset and is anxious to find him. So she comes across her dad who will try to find Winn-Dixie, but couldn't complete his attempt, he wanted to give up and the girl kept begging and soon within the middle of the party, Winn-Dixie came back and gave the girl glee and content. So this film was pretty interesting and really attracted my attention; the thing about the 10 things about her mom before she left the town and everything, I was amazed. If they would make a sequel, it would be impressive.

a very charming movie. set in a little town as if the world is not connected at all to America. the acting is excellent especially from the likes of annasophia robb , cecily tyson and jeff daniels.i thought it would be a really upsetting ending in which the dog runs off and doesn't come back but the sort of film like this that doesn't happen. i know this film is all about the dog but really he's not the character who you focus on its much more on the preacher and insisa opal.the girl seems to keep the world around her going without her life seems to be just sad and quiet.7/10

At least if they're under 5...my 2&half year old loves this movie so much, & I've found it to be such a blessing that I just had to come here & give it props. Opal is great, Dave M. is cool, the story is wonderful, the music is perfect. My lil girl knows the entire script for this movie, & digs it more than Elmo or any other of the hundred or so kid movies in the house. Folks...your kids learn A lot from movies/television...when they're glued to good stories like this one, take it to heart. I found it amusing on here that a few folks were surprised this movie was only for young kids. I've never read the book but the movie could not have been put together any better.
