4.0 out of 5 stars A unique way of telling a story., April 26, 2001

This review is from: Legend of Lobo [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Ernest Thompson Seton's story has been brought to the screen in a remarkable and unique way. There is no dialogue in the whole movie. The story is told through narration by Rex Allen (who had the perfect voice for this sort of thing) and music performed by the Sons of the Pioneers. (The title song, which reappears throughout the film, was written by the Sherman Brothers.) Oliver Wallace provides a nice music score and the outdoor photography by Jack Couffer and Lloyd Beebe is beautiful. All of these elements combine to form a very entertaining film. May the legend live on.

5.0 out of 5 stars This was the movie of my childhood, July 31, 2005

This review is from: The Legend of Lobo [VHS] (VHS Tape)

From the day I saw it as a six year old, Lobo was my all time favorite film. I would rent it from the video store every chance I got and only recently purchased it for myself as a 21 year old.

As an animal lover, Lobo let my imagination soar to a whole new world of mountains, cowboys, and adventure. From the moment I saw the movie, the amazing wolf has been my favorite and most respected animal. The fun and emotional story of Lobo will never get old.

I recommend this to all ages. Watch it for what it is, no comparisons, no modern day standards, just sit back and enjoy it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Darn good show!, July 27, 2006

This review is from: The Legend of Lobo (DVD)

I loved that movie. If you love wolves, or animals you'll love this. It has its really touching parts, and teaches a lot about wolves. Unlike normal shows that'll teach to you about animals, this one does it in an entertaining way by teaching it in a story, talking about Lobo's life and all the challenges he has to go through, as a lot of wolves, probably, do to. Also it shows just how truly evil humans are to animals....and...well all I can think to type about it. I give it 4 stars.
