5.0 out of 5 stars You'll be Awed by this Dog's "Acting", September 23, 1999

This review is from: Benji the Hunted [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Benji is stranded in a forest where he must forego being rescued to find a mother for 4 orphaned mountain lion cubs. There are very few humans in the film and, thus, precious little dialogue. SO, kids will love it because it is practically all action. I was amazed at how the Benji dog could 'act' so well. The trainers, directors, et al must have spent months teaching Benji, then months more doing takes and re-takes to get his actions and reactions just right. RENT IT. BUY IT. IT WILL BE A FAVORITE IN YOUR FAMILY FOR YEARS TO COME!!

5.0 out of 5 stars My favorite Benji movie, March 25, 2006

This review is from: Benji: The Hunted (DVD)

I have seen it about 3 times now and still enjoyed it. Main theme of the movie is about humanity and survival. Benji had many chances to be rescued with his owner, but he had a good sense with task at hand first to bring the orphaned cubs to their "adopted" mother and putting his rescue with his owner on hold. The most impressive part on Benji's part is his courage to overcome the obstacle uphill the cliff bringing the cubs to their "adopted" mother. I loved every minute of it. This is a family movie and good for everyone of any age.

For people who wants to know if this DVD has caption or subtitle. It does have caption. The DVD cover doesn't show caption symbol on it, but the DVD itself does. I know Amazon.com listed it closed-captioned. But, they don't always list the info. correctly as it happened to me in the past. So, I double-checked the Disney website and they show the menu demo that this movie has caption before I decided to buy the DVD. If you have TV with caption on, then you can leave subtitle from menu off, otherwise, caption and subtitle will show up at the same time.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Heartwarming Movie For The Soul, June 30, 2004

By 

Jason Scherer (Australia) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Benji the Hunted [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I love this movie so much. i saw it when it 1st came out, & i have loved it ever since & will love it till the day i die. the movie tugs at the heartsrtings like no other movie that has or has not bein done by cgi today. The scene where Benji tries to rescue the wounded cougar mom makes me cry everytime. She looks up at benji as if to say, "go, while you still are alive" the whole movie is so touching, heartwarming, funny, all wrapped into 86mins of fun filled movie magic. The ending where Benji has to say goodbye makes me cry my heart out everytime. this movie will always be in my heart forever. take care benji, my little buddy, wherever you are, i love you.
