I knew this would be a great one... and it didnt led me down. By far one of my favorite movies for dogs. I am a dog owner and i put my self in paul walker shows. I would have returned!!
I am overwhelmed by how the dogs were... they were a team and this is a lesson about survival!You wont waste your time watching it! It is really amazing

This flick is all about gratitude. It can be a man or animal, you just need to be thankful for what they have done. Film starts with powerful characters and it builds on that as the time goes on. This film proved me wrong about Paul Walker. He is such a versatile actor. He just made me cry at the end. I can't realize how the dogs were tamed for this movie they are just like people sometimes even better. You couldn't ask for more from the characters.. It won't get better than this full of love which keeps the bond with man and dog. Fabulous stuff from the director hats off.. Highly recommended movie for everyone

It's the National Science Foundation Research Base in Antarctica. Jerry Shepard (Paul Walker) is an expedition guide with a team of dogs. Dr. Davis McClaren (Bruce Greenwood) from UCLA has just arrived. Charlie Cooper (Jason Biggs) is the Jack of all trades. Katie (Moon Bloodgood) is the pilot. When a storm comes bearing down on the base, they have to quickly evacuate. Katie can't return for the dogs and they are left behind.The movie has two different sides. The human side of the story is fine but nothing special. Paul Walker has his good guy persona. Jason Biggs is joking around. The human struggle to rescue the dogs seem secondary. It's the dogs that are so endearing. After 50 minutes, the dogs take center stage. They project more human emotions than most of the human characters. They have the most powerful emotional story. They are the true stars of this movie.

You might have a few preconceived notions about this film, which I feel the need to clear up before I can begin with the actual review/opinion portion of this post. Don't worry, I'm not going to spend too long on this, but it is necessary, so bear with me.First of all, this is a family drama by Disney so right now anyone over the age of 15 is probably thinking 'this isn't a film for me'. You are wrong. This film may be by Disney but that doesn't mean it's just for kids, this packs a punch and a half and I defy any adult not to shed a tear or two over this one. It's reminiscent of Marley & Me in that respect. Not only will it tug at any person who has a heart, but it also raises some interesting ideas about how far a person would go to rescue the ones they love, whether that person is human or canine. Don't dismiss yourself because you don't think this film is for your demographic; personally I'm not sure this film has an age demographic. If you like a good film then here's your ticket.Second of all, the cast. If, like me, you're not a fan of Paul Walker because he seems like a one-trick-pony who can only do action-hero/bad- guy/heart-throb then please just leave those thoughts at the doorstep for a moment. Walker shines in this production, because for once he's playing a character whose sole purpose isn't to get the girl (though he does) or catch the bad guy and look cool doing it – this character has an emotional connection to the canines he is trying to save and that emotion is etched into every action he takes and every plea he makes. Paul Walker isn't the only casting choice I would like to address however, because while he does make up much of the film, it is also the canine cast whose journey we explore. These guys aren't just there to coo over either, these guys are characters. They have their own characteristics and story lines and they are just as heart-breaking and believable as the human cast. I was genuinely flabbergasted by the talent these beautiful canines display – and flabbergasted isn't a word I use lightly.If you would like to read the rest of my thoughts concerning this film then you can visit this site (filmrambler.blogspot.co.uk)
