Develiker terrible... so disappointed.

Softwing Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

Lumsdal Good , But It Is Overrated By Some

Brooklynn There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

ChloeLFinch There was a few things that I didn't get why Angus did things like At one point he has access to a dead deer and a cabin, yet he continues on walking, my mom use to say to me if I ever get lost to stay put, and then see will come looking. But Angus just keeps walking farther and farther away from his rescuers while his mom and dad were at home worrying. I did find The story was a little clichéd but that what I expected with a family Movie. we are shown shots of dead animals and insets and of Angus and yellow eating them which I didn't like, and if you don't know I am a vegetarian. And I found it upsetting. there were some intense scenes which at times i was like fighting to sit down The plot line is very simple, you can pretty much figure out the whole storyline The bond between Angus and his dog sends a message of loyalty and love. I really liked the dog, yellow and it made me want to cuddle my dogs.Angus was funny, my fav charter has to be yellow, the dog and Angus they was so cute together and they made a good team and I think there acting was good. I liked that it didn't have strong language, nudity, or extreme violence im pretty sure I got this movie on video tape when I was little, just when dvds where starting to come out. I had it when my first tooth came out instead of a pound and I really it and I was trying to remember the name of the movie and I was on YouTube and saw the trailer and descried to watch it again. I really liked The landscapes. there was a happy ending, and I couldn't help myself from bursting into tears.

smdsweetfrog Venting, I watched the end of a movie yesterday (Far From Home - Adventure of Yellow Dog). TERRIBLE Movie & TERRIBLE ENDING!Everyone that knows me knows I love animals AND people, all souls regardless of the body they're in. The young boy & dog are lost in the wilderness & the dog is helping/caring for the boy 100%. The helicopter drops a rescuer to the log they are on (over a ravine, about 200 ft above water) & grabs the boy & the dog is trying to protect the boy & grabs the pant leg of the rescuer & the rescuer kicks his leg free causing the dog to fall. (The dog doesn't lose his balance.) The dog is a yellow lab like my Pierce. They should have grabbed the dog first, the boy was fine & safe or somehow grabbed both of them. Anyway... So, because the so-called weather doesn't allow the helicopter to go back to rescue the dog, it's left there. OMG!!!! At that time I'm screaming every curse word I know & crying. The boy & family 'seem' to look for the dog (they post Lost Dog pictures up). The boy blows a dog whistle & the dog finds his way home. The end... I'm like, Dog, run the other way to a family that cares! I must have been a Marine in another life, never leave a soul/man behind. I hope rescuers in real life have more heart & that the movie is just a very dumb one. Ugh!!!

Electrified_Voltage I saw some of this family adventure flick just over twelve years ago, when I was nine years old. I remember finding it pretty exciting at the time, but do not recall seeing the end, even though I don't know what would have stopped me. It wasn't until last year that I finally watched the entire film from start to finish. While I certainly wasn't blown away, I still thought it was at least reasonable, despite being more of a kids' movie, and since I was nine years old (nearly ten) twelve years ago, I obviously wasn't a kid anymore by then. However, watching it a second time was pretty much an average experience.Angus McCormick is a fourteen-year-old boy who finds a stray Golden Labrador near his home and names him Yellow. Angus soon goes with his father, John, on a sailing trip along the coast of British Columbia and brings Yellow along. Unfortunately, the three of them get caught in a storm, and the boat is tipped over by a giant wave! John is soon rescued, but Angus and Yellow are not found! The fourteen-year-old boy and his dog manage to get to shore in a lifeboat, but are now stranded in the wilderness. Angus' parents, John and Catherine, along with the Coast Guard, attempt to have their son found, while the boy and his recently adopted dog must do what they can to survive, eating what they can, signaling for planes to rescue them, and facing harsh weather conditions and dangerous wildlife!I'm not 100% sure about the first time I watched "Far from Home: The Adventures of Yellow Dog" from start to finish, but the second time, I noticed some attempts at humour that fail (I didn't find any of it even remotely amusing, though kids might), and did find a bit of suspense, but not very much. Also, 81 minutes may not be enough for the details in the story. For example, the film doesn't quite take enough time to introduce the life of Angus and his family before the adventure begins. It starts a bit too soon. They also probably could have thought of a better ending. In other words, I think it's fair to say that the writing is a significant problem in this family adventure."Far from Home: The Adventures of Yellow Dog" seems to be generally thought of as more of a kids' movie, which I would say is true, but I guess it could impress some adults to a certain extent. However, it also might wear thin with another viewing, which seemed to be the case for me. I'm sure if I had seen the whole thing when I was nine years old, I would have really enjoyed it, more than I ever could over a decade later. When it comes to IMDb standards, this movie doesn't have very many votes or comments, so I guess it's pretty obscure. If I wasn't shown some of the movie back in my childhood, I would probably still be unaware of its existence. So, it may not be the easiest film to find a copy of these days, but if you ask me, it's not worth a hard search, unless maybe if it's for a kid.

avag All I have to say is that this movie is one of the greatest I have seen. It makes you laugh, cry and feel good. I especially like the bond between Angus (Jesse Bradford)and the dog. Its an unforgettable movie. If you have not seen it yet, go see it.
