Movie Reviews

Chicago Tribune - 8/10 by Barbara ShulgasserIt was the adult in me that wept when the movie ended. Take the kid and have a good time.
Washington Post - 8/10 by Jane HorowitzA beautiful, sad, spiritual story with joy and delicacy, visual chops and emotional depth.
New York Post - 6/10 by Rod DreherSomehow the elements do not add up to by anything especially memorable.
Philadelphia Inquirer - 5/10 by Carrie RickeyTwo of its youthful actors, although adorable, are not skilled enogh to carry their parts.
Film.com - 5/10 by John HartlIt can be treacly -- but in a crude way, it makes its point.
Mr. Showbiz - 5/10 by Cody ClarkThere are times when watching this film is like a near-death experience.
USA Today - 4/10 by Mike ClarkLimp direction, laughable production values, accent-heaving acting and dialogue and more lumps than three-day-old oatmeal.
Variety - 4/10 by Joe LeydonThis Dog won't hunt. Although well crafted and handsomely mounted, pic lacks sufficient sizzle.
Los Angeles Times - 4/10 by John AndersonThis is a movie for younger children -- they won't notice that the children deliver their lines with all the conviction of an airline flight boarding announcement.
Entertainment Weekly - 3/10 by Owen GleibermanIf you've been longing to see the worst family entertainment of 1966, A Dog of Flanders may be the movie for you.
