a wooftastic film

5 stars

03 Jul 2019

This film is action-packed and the fact that it was based on a true story made it even more enjoyable. It is very easy to fall in love with every single character as they all face their own problems and struggles.Watch this film and be amazed at how hard and rough life is at the bottom of the world.

The performance from every character was fabulous! If you are a proud dog owner you will really connect with Jerry,(played by Paul Walker). Jason Biggs plays a very funny character and when the atmosphere is dark, he will always lighten the mood and make you giggle. The extreme plotline will make you sit on the edge of your seat while the adventurers broke free and roamed the snow.

There are lots of different situations which require different music or sound effects. You can really tell when the mood changes if you listen to the music.The characters language is very well pronounced and punctuated and even if they don't speak, their bodys speak for them. The camera shots were fantastic as there were lots of different perspectives to see and there were lots of different perspectives to view the problems aswell. I gave this film 5 stars because the acting, setting, colour, sound,camera and characters were very well chosen. Frank Marshall, you did a good job.
