    I blieve you should do more movies like that, I mean, when I saw it I learned that it doesnt matter what you have to fight for what you want, and I learned to appreciate the humbleness more than what I used to do.

    I was flippin through HBO yesterday and it just happened to be on. I had never seen this movie before and decided to give it a try. Jeremy "Nello" is such a cutie and a great actor!! This movie made me cry, which is rare for me.

    I LOVE IT! i know it's technically not the greatest and yes, it lacks sizzle etc.. but it's a kid's/family movie- gimme a break! i'm a 19 yr old male, art major, so for me it was inspirational and just hit the sweet spot... something about it..

  1. If you've been longing to see the worst family entertainment of 1966, A Dog of Flanders may be the movie for you.
  2. Somehow the elements do not add up to by anything especially memorable.
  3. There are times when watching this film is like a near-death experience.
