Beanbioca As Good As It Gets

Freaktana A Major Disappointment

Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Brenda The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

omkar1984 An emotional person often dreams about/craves for a life that's allows him to stay with his dear ones forever, without being forced to move on. The movie fulfills this desire.A glimpse of the harsh Nature, surreal panoramas of mountains, rivers etc., the abhorrent human tendencies and innocence and love struggling to survive their unending ordeals are captivating. The boat trips by Alex and Jack, their visit to the Indian village which is calm and content, eating and sleeping under the open sky, the wood house by the river. The dog fighting not only devastates but also infuriates, the misanthropist was rising ! The way Beauty Smith vexes and starves White Fang leaves heartbroken.Bart, The Bear and Jed have played their roles impeccably. Yes, there are several moments that are unconvincing e.g: The bear retreats when a wolfdog gets enraged.The fatherly Alex and the teenager, dreamer and emotionally impulsive Jack touch your hearts. The eventual maturing of Jack is depicted lovably in the movie - steadily befriending White Fang, driving him away for his own good. Alex who is initially uncomfortable with Jack but later own takes a liking for the boy - he gradually opens up and stays with Jack to assist him realize the dream of the gold mine. Jack, as an emotionally attached and honest person, enlists Alex as a partner in the mine, while reading this, a slight smile and good feel reflects on his face. When at the eleventh hour, Jack decides to stay back, Alex smiles lightly, acknowledging in a fatherly way, the feelings of a young boy. I often hate unrealistic endings, even if happy, however, there are times when you wish to shun the logic and pray for a happy end.The background score suits the moods of the movie, the cinematography is memorable.To summarize, it's an emotional journey, emotions that neither understand nor care about the rational or the practical world.

Silviu I I remember I read the book when I was a kid and I liked it very much. Now that i've seen the film I clearly remembered some of the events from the book (like the last stand in the woods against the hungry wolfs or the dog fights in the town). The ending was definitely different in the book, although i can't remember exactly how it was.This is a pretty good film. I especially liked the nature scenes and the superb Alaskan landscapes, but also the relationship between the boy and his dog/wolf friend. It does have a few boring scenes (involving small talk between humans), but since it's not a very long movie it shouldn't be a problem.

northumbia I just read White Fang and I found it awesome. London is the writer of the Yukon and the Gold Rush. When I start watching this movie I just thought that it must have a lot of twist to be a good movie. The book was really wild: the famine, the attacks of White Fang to the dogs at the station, are not here... It will be too cruel to the movie screen and I guess impossible without hurting the animals. Instead, you will find here a kind movie, with action, with a spectacular scenarios, with this beautiful wolf/dog, with great music and with the London adventure at his best. Inspired in White Fang, the movie carry us trough the life of Jack becoming a man, and a simple and moving relationship between the man and his dog. There are scenes that were just great: the amazing dog combat, in this point both movie and book are just awesome.Enjoy!

jlivesay2010 This movie is great movie because at first it shows the story of a boy who trying to find his fathers claim with the help of a guy named Alex Larson. At the beginning it shows the life of how wolves lived and even how they live today. It made me sad to see that wolf loose his mother. And how they made dogs fight back then. To me that is just cruelty to animals. Its good to know that none of the animals were hurt during that film. And just how a brave boy just went in and helped that wolf and saved his life. We should always treat animals with respect thats a good thing Disney movies do a lot of teaching us all right from wrong. I also like what they say at the end about how almost all the wolves were killed through out our American history. And about they opened up national parks for wolves to live in peace. By the American Humane Association. I thank the AHA for doing all that great work.
