Review of Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey (1993) by Jazzmin M — 07 Mar 2016

I am so sad that I didn't grow up with this movie. I fell in love with this movie when I saw it. It has a simple story, but I invested in the adventure. I love the characters, especially good old Shadow.

Chance and Sassy are also very lovable. The animals who portrayed the characters did well. I also really like the fact that instead of using computer animation, they used voice-overs. I thought that was a nice touch, although I was a little confused about it because their mouths never moved when they talked.

The actors themselves do good jobs too I was also really emotionally invested. Every time something bad happened to a character I wanted him/her to be okay. The relationship between the characters is very nice.

The film is funny and dramatic. And by Jesus that ending. When they finally returned home to their owners, I burst into tears of joy. I'm not even kidding. That was probably the first time a movie made me cry out of happiness.

A film that can do that is definitely considered good in my book. Homeward Bound is a perfect family movie. It has lovable characters, good drama, and a lot heart.
