Dale R Another boy and his dog story. The portrayal of positive interracial friendships and commentary was a welcome addition to the movie. The child actors were not bad, but I can not say they did a great job either. Since they were the leads of the movie, it frames the film as mediocre. There was a villain, but he was a throw away plot that really only affected two scenes in the film. Overall not a bad film and I would recommend a viewing if you enjoy family films and dogs.

Um cachorro, dois garotinhos do campo e um objetivo, o filme se anuncia assim e é exatamente assim. Simples, lindo, uma vibe dessas, me identifiquei pelos vários cães, o campo e o jeito rude como o vizinho os trata. ❤🐶 Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Another boy and his dog story.

I very much enjoyed 'The Biscuit Eater'. It doesn't feature a showstopping plot or cast, but it manages to leave nice and heartfelt feelings behind. It is somewhat similar to other films featuring children and animals, but I feel Disney got the mix of drama and comedy just right for this - with some of their other productions, it's either too soppy or too silly but here they got it right. Younger members of the cast Johnny Whitaker (Lonnie) and George Spell (Text) aren't incredible, but I think they actually do bounce off each other rather well - this studio have had some whinny, borderline annoying kids in the past, but I think Whitaker and Spell are two of the better ones. Elsewhere, you have Earl Holliman in a role that I'm surprised they didn't lock onto Brian Keith - I'm sure they wanted to! Joking aside, Holliman is good as Harve. Lew Ayres (Ames) and Beah Richards (Charity) are pleasant, as is Godfrey Cambridge (Dorsey). The cast aren't anything crazy, but I rate them. It might have a strange title, but it's worth your time. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review s r A bit too drawn out and cliched for its own good. I like the dog culture I didn't know much about though.
