An unlikely trio of pets -- aging bull terrier Bodger, spry Labrador retriever Luath, and Siamese cat Tao -- begin missing their owners after being dropped off for the summer with a friend of the family, John Longridge (Emile Genest), who lives across the country from them. Their loneliness becomes unbearable, however, when John leaves on an extended camping trip. The three animals resolve to find their way back home, no matter how difficult -- and even if that means journeying over 250 miles.

Euan P 03/23/2024 Cool movie, perfectly matches its title. See more Russell H 09/26/2023 Cute adventure with pets by themselves See more steve d 01/08/2023 Inferior in every way to the remake. See more 11/14/2021 I remember seeing Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey when I was a kid. So it was hard to not compare the two movies. It is basically the same story, but in this one the animals do not talk and the story is narrated with the occasional human interaction with the animals. Enjoyable, but knowing the upcoming movie is better I wouldn't recommend it unless you want to see and compare the movies like I did. See more 07/25/2021 Bem bonitinho, como todo filme de bichinhos, que falam sem mexer a boquinha (coisa que incomodava aos montes uma miga, a mim nunca fez muita diferença), o filme guarda semelhanças com o livro, com breves e simples alterações, uma produção delicada, singela, gentil e bonita...
