DVD Reviews of Eight Below (Full Screen Edition)
DVD Review: Eight Below
Summary: 5 Stars
Not only was this a great movie but my shopping experience was most pleasant. I had an opportunity to contact the support provided by the seller and was very pleased. This was an older film that I had not seen but have watched it several times since I got it. If looking for something else I will purchase from the same seller.DVD Review: An inspiring experience
Summary: 5 Stars
The strong connection between the antarctic guide and his snow dogs is truly inspirational. The adventure in which they are involved is based on a true story which makes the film even more heartwarming. The connections between and among the lead characters, and between and among the dogs reflect loyalty, love and forgiveness. This is a "must-see" movie. I highly recommend it to children and adults alike.DVD Review: Excellent Family Film...But What Happened to the Special features?
Summary: 4 Stars
I received this today and really enjoyed the film. It's a touching story based on real events that really carefully tells the story of the special bond that exists between Man and Dog. Paul Walker was phenomenal and so were Jack London and Jason Biggs.
It looks great on Blu and the music was terrific.
However, I was disappointed at the real lack of special features. Given the scenery, the dogs, all of the suspenseful sequences, I would have really enjoyed a Making of Featurette and some interviews with the cast...Disney let me down in that regard.
I will definitely watch this film over and over...clean for the kids, a little emotional at points (including loss of an animal)....but otherwise it left me cheering!
DVD Review: Eigth Below is On Top
Summary: 5 Stars
Eight Below is a wonderful story about the bond that is formed between man and our compansion animals. I'd recommend it to animal lovers and anyone who enjoys a good story.DVD Review: wide screen
Summary: 3 Stars
The movie has great visual quality, the only problem is, I have a flat screen tv and I thought I needed the wide screen version dvd. Now the top and bottom of the screen are black. Oh well, my mistake.
Description of Eight Below (Full Screen Edition)
Walt Disney Pictures presents EIGHT BELOW, the thrilling tale of incredible friendship between eight amazing sled dogs and their guide Jerry (Paul Walker). Stranded in Antarctica during the most unforgiving winter on the planet, Jerry's beloved sled dogs must learn to survive together until Jerry - who will stop at nothing -- rescues them. Driven by unwavering bonds of friendship, enormous belief in one another, and tremendous courage, Jerry and the dogs make an incredible journey to reunite in this triumphant and inspiring action-adventure the whole family will treasure.Despite a likable cast of humans, it's the canine stars who steal the show in Eight Below, a terrific live-action adventure in the time-honored Disney tradition. Based on a true story that was previously filmed (much differently) as the 1983 Japanese hit Antarctica, this above-average family film takes place in 1993 and focuses on a dog-sled guide at an Antarctic research station (Paul Walker) who is forced by a severe storm to abandon eight beloved sled dogs for the duration of a harsh Antarctic winter. Left to fend for themselves, the rugged and resourceful dogs encounter danger at every turn, surviving for nearly six months while Walker and his closest colleagues (engagingly played by Bruce Greenwood, Moon Bloodgood, and American Pie's Jason Biggs) join forces to mount a daring rescue mission. Having endured similarly extreme conditions on his 1993 film Alive, director Frank Marshall brings an abundance of natural splendor (and minimum use of digital wizardry) to spectacularly arctic locations in Norway, Greenland and Canada, and Walker (star of The Fast and the Furious) lends an amiable sincerity to his compassionate role. For most viewers, however, it's the remarkable dogs (six Siberian huskies and two malamutes) who make Eight Below so thoroughly entertaining. It's not quite an instant family classic, but it comes pretty doggone close. --Jeff Shannon
