DVD Reviews of Homeward Bound - The Incredible Journey

DVD Review: Especially Wonderful for Children of the 90's.
Summary: 5 Stars

This is one of the best movies from my childhood - a movie made before CGI, before animals had mouths that moved, before special effects took over a majority of the film. This film made me smile, laugh, and cry. I'm almost 23 now, and I can go back to my old VHS copy of this film and still feel the same emotions I had when I was younger. It will always be one of those family films that withstands the test of time, and will bring a tug at the heart for anyone who watches it. Being a part of the generation who went from VHS to DVDS, internet downloads, and so forth; I can promise you this movie withstands the test of time, and still is a joy to watch with your parents, siblings, and friends REGARDLESS of age. It is pleasure on all emotional levels, and rewards your tears. Definitely a good classic movie for anyone who grew up in the 90's!!

DVD Review: Easy To See Why This Was A Big Hit
Summary: 4 Stars

Robert Hays and Kim Griest play normal human beings while Sally Field, Michael J. Fox and Don Ameche are voices of animals. All of them combined to make a nice family movie here, and a successful one at the box office and at rental stores. It's odd how less than a decade later, many of those names sound "old," don't they?

There are many funny lines given to Fox to read as the main character, the dog. Field also has a good lines as the cat while Ameche plays it straight as the mature Golden Retriever.

The only somewhat-bothersome character is the 13-year-old boy who is impatient and pouty at times, but he gets out that after awhile.

The scenery is nice, too, with photographers doing a fine job capturing the beauty of California's Sierra mountain range.

All in all, a very nice movie and highly-recommended for one of those 'family nights.'

DVD Review: AMAZING SOUNDTRACK, but could have been better.
Summary: 3 Stars

I gotta say, Bruce Broughton did an amazing job on the music, and it deserves 5 stars BUT there are some flaws.
First off, its missing two songs that could have easily fit into the CD. One is when Sassy is in the river, the other is when Shadow is injured under the train tracks. The music is great in those scenes so i don't see why they would just not put them on there which is quite disappointing considering they had room.
Another thing is the price. wow, rare indeed, you cant even download this one online!
I paid [...] bucks for this soundtrack because i love the music and it was worth it too me.
Other than the missing tracks and price, its an great soundtrack.

DVD Review: KIDS WORE THE VHS OUT WHEN YOUNGER!
Summary: 4 Stars

My first child (now 16) wore this video out and LOVED it! So, i'm replacing it with a DVD for my younger one and the one with autism. Awesome family classic in my opinion! Funny! And it has a happy ending! Love Michael J Fox, Sally Field & Don Ameche voices.... PERFECT casting!

Description of Homeward Bound - The Incredible Journey

This thrilling and thoroughly captivating theatrical hit from Disney has become an instant favorite with audiences of all ages. You'll lose your heart to Chance, a fun-loving American bulldog pup; Sassy, a hilarious Himalayan cat who lives up to her name; and Shadow, a wise old golden retriever -- all of whom express themselves with very familiar human voices! The adventure begins when the loving owners of these irresistible pets are forced to leave them in the temporary care of a friend who lives hundreds of miles away. But after several days, the worried animals begin to think their family must be in trouble, so they decide to head for home. On their incredible journey across the ruggedly beautiful Sierras, they encounter unexpected surprises from man, beast, and nature alike. It's an unforgettable story of love, courage, and devotion that will delight and inspire generations to come!
Walt Disney studios had previously adapted Sheila Burnford's classic animal-adventure novel The Incredible Journey in 1963, and the story proves just as durable in this popular 1993 version, in which the heroic trio of animals are given voices provided by Don Ameche, Michael J. Fox, and Sally Field. They don't actually speak (like the clever critters in Babe), but we hear their "voices" as the lost household pets--Shadow the golden retriever, Chance the bulldog, and Sassy the cat--survive a harrowing series of adventures as they struggle to find their way home. Perfect entertainment for kids, this frequently clever movie offers an abundance of wildlife and beautiful location scenery, and the vocal performances by Ameche, Fox, and Field are surprisingly effective. A hit with parents and children alike, the film was followed by a sequel in 1996. --Jeff Shannon
