3/5

Pretty sappy stuff, but the film-makers use knowing humour to snare more cynical viewers and are well-served by the cast.

Heart's in the right place, but very broad and quite irritating too.

Well, it's a doggy story for humans, anyway: an avowedly true-life tale that comes across like a well-meaning PG-certification of the real world.

Red Dog still boasts plenty of Ocker charm, thanks to an eclectic cast of character actors.

4/5

Flaws are balanced, however, by some terrific performances and Geoffrey Hall's superb cinematography.

4/5

An endearing, funny, idiosyncratic tale, director Kriv Stender's film is made up of a series of hilarious and tearjerking scenes of human folly.

The movie is a lovely heartfelt motion picture deeply rooted in Aussie culture. This is one of, if not the best, Australia film. The ending always makes me cry.

Empieza lento, por un tiempo no se entiende cual es el punto de la pelicula pero al avanzar te encariñas no solo con el red dog sino con la comunidad. El giro es un tanto brusco, era inesperado y un poco forzado. Sin embargo es una pelicula familiar hermosa, la pasas bien, te ries, lloras y empatizas con todos. Amamos a Red Dog, bonito recuerdo que que te deja una pequeña huella rojiza.

Was living and working there at the time Red Dog was wandering , even met him a few times , straight up the way it was there in those days is exactly as presented in the movie .

An Australian classic, I dont think there was another movie that I have watched so many times, it is heartwarming while still being able to make me sob by the end every time.
