Audience Member The best version, and most true to the book. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review sergey b Nearly perfect adaptation of Jack London's novel that stays very close to the original text. And an excellent narration by Richard Dreyfuss makes it a classic. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member There have been a lot of adaptations of Jack London's classic story. I have read the book and have seen most of the movies, but this one is easily the best. It is as faithful as a movie could get to this story, considering that the main protagonist is a dog and the story is told from his perspective... the movie is narrated by Richard Dreyfuss to give a sense of what the dog thinks and feels and Rutger Hauer stars as the dog's master. This is a beautiful movie. The animals are gorgeous and the locations are spectacular. I did find it to be a bit too short but its a small gripe when I enjoyed it so much. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Not very engaging... Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member it was alright. a dog wandering around and a voice over... Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Oh my, this movie is like having to sniff Rosie O'Donnell's freshly removed cast.
