I thought this film was definitely a different version from the novel but still sends home the same message. Even though my favorite actor is playing second fiddle to a CGI dog, I still loved Buck and loved Buck's story. Lots of funny moments in the film to keep things light-hearted. A delightful home run for the good guy. And the special FX was incredibly well done.

Unique, vivid, come-to-life experience!

Inspirational!

At first I was hesitant to see this movie because the book was a required read during school and I hadn't enjoyed it very much. I'm happy to have been pleasantly surprised by the movie version. I absolutely loved it. When the movie first started I was disappointed that Buck was a CGI dog but as the movie went along I understood why it had to be so, and even preferred that he was a CGI dog.
