This is one of the first DISNEY features i was kinda disappointed in. I mean Annette Funicello was in this film and the whole movie to me was kinda of a disaster. Silly and funny is one thing, but they over-silly and a fastly-done movie is another thing. I expected this film to be much better.
Only thing that really made my rating of this movie higher than it should be was the great acting of ED WYNN as the toymaster. Drew Barrymore's version of Babes in Toyland is so much better than this. I give this movie 3.5 stars.
If you are true doggy lover, there is no doubt you will surly love this disney feature. Oh the heart of this film is magnificent and inspiring and did I say it is based on a true story?
This is one of the films the whole family should be watching. This film is so very touching and so much heart and love to the story. It is such a great great film. To tell you how much I LOVE this film, it is now my 2nd favorite disney film from 1937-1961. 5 Stars All The Way
You can say this is a Disney NATURE/ADVENTURE Film. Nikki is one beautiful wolf dog. I would also like to express, STRONG, CURIOUS and LOYAL. Sad to see her separated from his man but she goes on a wild-life adventure making friend with a baby bear cub.
There was one scene I didn't like when he got captured only to be use a DOG FIGHTER. I hate those Dog fights, turning good nature dogs into hate-ful fighting dogs. It did have a very happy ending. I would have been very angry if this movie had ended a different way. 4.5 stars i gave this feature.
Anything with Maureen O'Hara, ina movie i know for sure I will LOVE. I think she is one of the most beautiful and gifted actresses ever. Her red hair is so amazing and she is a gifted singer as well. She was so perfect as the mother for this feature.
I love the story how the girls met and decided to change places so one could meet dad/mom. The plan to get them to fall in love again was so great.
The song that Haley Mills performs as a duet is one of my favorite disney songs. Well done, Haley Mills. I think you did a much better job in this film than Pollyanna, although I so LOVE the latter film. I give this film 5 stars all the way.
This feature started out so slow for me. I think maybe because SCIENCE Is one of the poorest subjects for me. I don't know, I just don't find it very interesting in watching how things work and discoveries and such.
It did get quite interesting when the professor made his discovery and all the excitement that went along with his invention. Glad things turned out well for him at the end of the film. I give this 4 stars.
The first movie to watch from 1961 is such a great family disney film to watch. Who does not enjoy a film about watching dogs, especially when they are cute dalmatians.
I would not want sell the cute little pups to evil crazy women either but the story was great when the pups are kidnapped and The Pongos go and search for their missing pups. Talk about bravery, courage and determination. Great film over all and I give this 5 stars.
First two words that comes to mind is GREAT CASTING! What a great family movie that Disney made for us. Just to shows you, when tragedy affects a whole family, unity is the key to the solution.
Everything about this film is worth watching and I recommend those with young children to view this feature. James McArthur is one of favorite actors and I have enjoyed watching him in at least 4 Disney Films now. Watching how they defeated the Pirates, with slight help, is amazing. Great action. I give this 5 stars all the way.
