Mist: The Tale of a Sheepdog Puppy is a British family television film following the life of a border collie puppy as she grows up to become a working Herding dog. Part fiction, part documentary, it was filmed by real-life shepherd David Kennard on his farm in Devon. It features his seven working dogs - the puppy Mist, her gentle mother Gail, grandfather 'Sir' Gregory, eccentric, bubbly, hyper uncle Jake, sour and negative great-auntie Fern, gruff, tough cousin Ernie and wise auntie Swift.

Mist: The Tale of a Sheepdog Puppy Audience Reviews

Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews
ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
bodil1970 As a previous reviewer stated, this is a collection of videos from a farm hobbled together (probably using a free video editor from the web.). Horrible camera work (even home movies are better) with horrible voice over. In fact, maybe they were trying to imitate funniest home videos. Well it didn't work. Yes, a 1-3 year old may enjoy it but then why bill it as a Family Adventure. I guess if all the family had lobotomies it would be suitable. FWIW - I am Australian with Scottish ancestry and regularly watch British productions and I still find the voice over horrible. Luckily I only paid 80c but still feel ripped off. Now to find a better movie....
cirronimbus I think that FeiLongEX is really an alias for Fern. Who else would say such nasty things about a wonderful and funny feel-good movie -- the kind this world can use many more of. I loved the story of Mist, the characters (even Fern!), the landscape, the music, the accents, everything. This movie makes me wish I could live on a sheep farm in Devon and be friends with the people behind the animal voices. I thought they did a fantastic job. I live with a rescued deaf Border collie who has a very strong herding instinct, and it is educational to see working sheepdogs in action and learn a bit about the training process. Watching it through the dog's perspective made it all the more interesting. I plan to tell lots of friends about this gem of a movie and am very much looking forward to watching the sequel that was just barely released.
alanhighley I am originally from Scotland and agree with Zebra there on his/her comments about this being an excellent movie. I disagree with FeiLongEx who is from the US and heavily criticizes the movie, especially the accents, which he/she does not understand. I have seen many movies, animated and otherwise, that my 6 year old granddaughter enjoys, and which sometimes have atrocious American accent voice-overs that do not fit. Also, a number of movies starring Americans, such as Robin Hood King of Thieves and played by Kevin Costner who makes no attempt to hide his American accent. Remember that Mist is a BBC TV production and is not only in the best possible taste as a family story, but the voice-overs are mainly done by famous British and Irish actors and actresses.
Mightyzebra Genre: Non-animated family film set on a farm with sheepdogs.Why I like it: This is one of my new TOP TEN favourite films! It is SO good for a modern film, I prefer it to a lot of the stuff that comes up in the cinemas nowadays. It should have an overall rating on this site!What it ALL adds up to: Absolute cuteness+a CREEPY baddie+a good storyline + the fact that the sheepdogs' mouths don't move when they talk + lovely characters + good music + Good English accents/voices = this lovely and enjoyable motion picture! I recommend it to all Sheepdog fans, English-film fans, people who are frustrated by CGI mouths and people who like funny films! ENJOY! :)What happens: From the moment she sees the woolly creatures, Mist wants to become a real sheepdog. However, THAT will mean putting up with Fern and being trained by Sir Gregory...P.S I'm the first person to review this. That has NEVER happened before...
