As 20th Century Fox's first film after the rebrand (now Disney). The story is based on Jack London's classic novel "The Call of the Wild," directed by Chris Sanders of "The Wild Things." As long as you are a dog owner, you will be convinced by the "acting skills" of the dogs in the movie. The special effects are handled very well, the facial expressions and details of the dogs are well done, and the expressions of all the dogs are very vivid. . . In the original book, a legendary wolf dog who went through sledding, bloody dog ​​fighting, hunting... After rebirth, he poured countless emotions into his savior and eventually became the wolf king. In the movie, it is a cute big dog who knows human etiquette and manners. Quite endearing, very lively and playful, naughty and cute. After several twists and turns in the film: cute pets, glacier savior, battle of the head dog, crossing the avalanche... All the first half, the dramatic conflict is constant, and it is interesting to watch. But in the second half, starting from the official debut of the actor Harrison Ford, the story of "The Old Man and the Dog" did not have the excitement of the first half, and gradually became and another movie released in the same year: sled dog "Togo" The same embarrassing situation. It's obviously a movie with a dog as the protagonist, but it has been divided into too many plots by humans. Who wants to see people in this kind of movie! Even if he was Harrison Ford. In short, I can only blame the director for not filming and adapting the story line well. The first half can get 8 points, the second half can only get 6 points, and the good half of the film still breaks the whole, with an average score of 7 points.

The Call of the Wild quotes

  • John Thornton: This is a map of the Yukon. My son was always reading adventure stories, crazy about the news coming out of the Yukon. Wasn't the gold, he didn't care about that, it was the mountains. He spent all day looking at maps and pictures of the mountains, dreaming about was on the other side, places no one had been, wild places. We could go, you and me, see what's out there. What do you think?

  • John Thornton: [narrates] There's a place in these mountains where a new breed of timber wolf roams, wiser than men or wolf, because of the dog that runs at the head of a pack. Now... they live without fear, raise their young and flourish.
