Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

Snow Dogs is not a fantasy about talking dogs--it's a heartwarming story about personal growth starring Cuba Gooding Jr. and a sled team of Siberian huskies. When Dr. Ted Brooks, a successful, sun-loving dentist from Miami, receives a summons to the minuscule town of Tolketna, Alaska, his mother is forced to confess that he was adopted. Teddy's desire to quickly return to Miami yields to a burgeoning curiosity about his deceased mother and biological father. Teddy's experiences in Alaska acquaint him firsthand with the wonders of sled dogs, the sport of mushing, human sacrifice, and love. The city slicker's hilarious attempts to mush even culminate in a hero's reception at the finish of the prestigious "Arctic Challenge." Snow Dogs is 99 minutes of breathtaking vistas, amusing comedy, and entertainment suited for the entire family. Rated PG due to the occasional outhouse joke and other mild crude humor. --Tami Horiuchi


Product Description

Make no bones about it -- Disney's SNOW DOGS is a hilarious action-packed comedy your whole family will love. Eight adorable but mischievous dogs get the best of dog hater Ted Brooks (Cuba Gooding Jr.) when he leaves his successful Miami Beach dental practice for the wilds of Alaska to claim his inheritance -- seven Siberian huskies and a border collie -- and discover his roots. As Ted's life goes to the dogs, he rises to the occasion and vows to learn to mush with his inheritance. Totally out of his element, he faces challenges he's never dreamed of. There's a blizzard, thin ice, an intimidating crusty old mountain man named Thunder Jack (James Coburn), the Arctic Challenge Sled Dog Race that's only two weeks away, and a life-and-death rescue. This fish-out-of water, tail-wagging comedy is nothing but doggone good fun and a celebration of family -- both human and canine!

5.0 out of 5 stars A FUNNY AND FURRY ADVENTURE!!!, January 6, 2002
By Lori Hoover (New Paris, PA United States) - See all my reviews
Snow Dogs is a laugh a minute adventure into the world of sled dog racing. Cuba Gooding Jr. is a Miami dentist who inherits a team of champion sled dogs and finds out he was adopted.Over the course of the movie he discovers his true place in life. The dogs are cute and steal the action sequences. Finally, a family film that everyone can enjoy. No hocus-pocus or scary stuff!! The only magic here is the power of love between family and friends and the occational winking of the sled dogs. Don't miss this latest Disney classic!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Family Movie, January 30, 2002
By A Customer
I took my kids on a "teachers' workday" because I promised, I was tired from my own job, grumpy and in no mood for a movie. Instead of grumbling though it as I had expected, I was laughing and engaged in the various character's situations and problems. The characters are fun, the settings are fabulous....Miami and "Alaska" both come off looking great... The acting was fine, lots of slipping on ice and falling in snow, physical comedy done very well. The dogs were great, very believable. My kids loved it. I loved it. Now, there is only one scene where the dogs talk (in a dream sequence) so if you are looking for "Babe" you'll be disappointed. The main characters are human... But I enjoyed the story of characters trying to adjust to situations that life has unexpectedly thrown at them, and the dogs learn some lessons as well. Just an all around great family movie...nothing too scary, no "bad language" just plain fun. I will probably see it again, and the last time I went to see a movie for a second time was in 1981.

4.0 out of 5 stars Let's Be Realistic, January 21, 2002
By A Customer
I took my kids (4&5) to this movie and they lauged so hard they could hardly sit still. I too found it amusing in several places. I was pleasently suprised because the previews that I have seen on TV did not do it justice. I walked in to this movie expecting the worst. It is full of slapstick, but the story was over my kids heads. If you go in not expecting the typical Cuba Gooding Jr. role and take it for what it is, a clean lighthearted movie that you can actually take your kids to, then you will enjoy it. As for the rest of the audience, it was a sold out show and I think the adults had as much fun as the kids did.
