i be disappoint in the movie and base on the expectation set by some of the review . the pace be sloooowwww and the performance by the lead kid be poor and and the story be not engage . peter otoole be awesome and most of the other adult performance be solid ( the dwarf be great ) and and lassie performance look too stag ( director fault ) . cinematography be beautiful . i be a bit surprised by the number of very positive comment for this film and especially from american kid . today kid generally want a much faster pace and more drama or comedy . other than offer a story about a famous dog and beautiful cinematography and it seem to lack the element which attract kid . there be a large and underserved market for wholesome kid film and though .
