Not what I expected ...

For a Disney Movie - very disappointing. It was much scarier than the reviews let on. However, my kids did enjoy the movie (8 & 11) but were spooked at certain points. There were several families that LEFT during the first 15 minutes of the movie. I can completely understand how this could cause nightmares in younger viewers. I thought Disney would take this classic Dickens story and put a magical spin (using magical special effects) to bring home the point without being so dark and scary. Definitely a let down. I would much rather have watched it on DVD than spend the money in the movies.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

I took my children and their friends to see this movie. We all enjoyed it very much.
The kids (characters in the movie) can relate to the stray dogs and the compassion and care they show for them will warm any heart. It was a lighthearted movie that had the crowd laughing throughout.
A great movie for dog lovers and even those who are not. I thought the actors/actresses(human and canine) were great !!! A must see family film or "anyone" film.
A "must have" when it is released on DVD.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
