Just saw it on On Demand. We were taking my gf's 14 year old niece to see it in the theater one weekend but there were concerns about some virus so we decided not to go, boy did that turn out to be a good decision.

But man, what a great movie. It's funny, it's sad, it's exciting. Just the distraction we needed, we've been waiting for it to go from Buy to Rent, it did and we watched it tonight and will watch again tomorrow since it's a 72 hour rental.

Yeah, this was a fun movie. They did a great job on Buck; gave him a lot of emotion.


Each sled dog on Buck's team (besides Spitz) was given the personality of one of the dwarfs from the Disney classic Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937): Dolly is Bashful, Pike is Grumpy, Joe is Happy, Billy is Sleepy, Dave is Dopey, Dub is Sneezy, and Sol-Leks is Doc.

Ha! I didn't notice that!
