Rated - 3 starsNot too Shabby

Stewart Kinnon from Linwood , 03/04/2007

An enjoyable little film, although a bit fluffy, No where near as good as the orginal, however still fun.

They use at least three dogs in the film and they all look completely different

A customer from Cheshire , 27/11/2006

Stick to the Disney original. The child in this version was a complete pain in the neck - even the dog was irritating!

Some may find this 'funny' ... my 6 yr. old son started to watch it last night and turned it off, it was scary, horrible, and totally unsuitable for a young boy... it left him sad and sobbing...
