[.ca] Benji: The Hunted

Wonder dog:
Thought this movie was for the kid's, but watching this movie with my daughter's, found it was so tugging at the heart story. Wish life was like this, cute and want to watch again movie.

The absolute WORST Disney film ever!:
"Benji the Hunted" is supposedly the last Benji film made so far, and I hope that is the case. This film is extraordinarily DULL and BORING! The opening sequence is the only thing that I actually liked. After that, it's all downhill from there. The viewer has to suffer through 90 minutes of Benji the dog and his animal friends mating and playing in the woods, complete with some terrible '80s synthesizer music and repetitive nature scenes. Almost no dialogue or action occurs during the film. There are only three major human actors in it, and they are on-screen for about 5 to 10 minutes. Man, is this movie deadly! No wonder it got ignored by the public, and shame on Disney for releasing such a flat-out boring movie like this back in the late '80s. This movie is also an insult to the original "Benji" from 1974, which I really liked as a child and probably still do.

Great!:
This is a very entertaining, warm movie for the whole movie! If you see it, buy it!

Amazing:
With all due respect to anyone who gives this less than 3 out of 5 stars, you are missing the point of this movie. So what if it does not have much dialogue. Actions speak louder than words, especially when they come from the heart. The musical score is superb and touching. If you can't see feeling in that little dog's eyes, then you have no heart, for if you do, it must be made of stone. To say that this film holds no meaning to you is to repress your own emotions. It is not just a movie for kids. It should touch your heart no matter who or how old you are. This movie is not about loud sound and fantasmic special effects. It is about everything that is good. At the core of the movie are unselfish love and persistence towards a goal. Who could ask for more? Whether or not you are a Benji fan or a dog lover like I am, you should be able to identify with this movie in some way. If you have kids, let this and other Benji movies become a part of your family. You won't regret it, and you'll be instilling some great values of how to live life in yourselves and in your children. I hope this review helps and touches you in some way, just as the movie is meant to do. Watch it with an open mind and a good heart, and you will get everything out of it. Thank you for taking the time to read this review.

A Heartwarming Movie For The Soul:
I love this movie so much. i saw it when it 1st came out, & i have loved it ever since & will love it till the day i die. the movie tugs at the heartsrtings like no other movie that has or has not bein done by cgi today. The scene where Benji tries to rescue the wounded cougar mom makes me cry everytime. She looks up at benji as if to say, "go, while you still are alive" the whole movie is so touching, heartwarming, funny, all wrapped into 86mins of fun filled movie magic. The ending where Benji has to say goodbye makes me cry my heart out everytime. this movie will always be in my heart forever. take care benji, my little buddy, wherever you are, i love you.
