Geez guys. Let's lighten up on Han Solo.

Not everything in life has to be a political line in the sand. If you won't see a movie because of something Ford said, then you shouldn't see any movie because they all run through Hollywood in some form or fashion.

We went to see it last night.

Not nearly as rough as the book. After the first 10 minutes the CGI didnt bother me.

The girls liked it.

Overall its a good movie and deserves that PG rating. Good to watch without your grumpy old man glasses on.

Ford called Trump a SOB on live tv, he should be ashamed of himself.

Always like HF until I found out he was anti-gun. Now he is anti Trump.

Saw it last night. CG was lame in my opinion. But it is a good movie for kids to see. Wait for it to come out on video.


Old enough to know better, but dumb enough to still try.

Not for adults unless you are with a woman who loves dogs expressing emotions akin to humans. I would have walked out after 30 minutes if I wasn't with my wife who thought it was "cute".

Exactly, another chance to humanize animals.

Just like the original book and authors intent.

My boys are wanting to watch it, but the previews with a real person and an animated dog just looked weird to me. But I'm sure the wife will take the kids and I'll be drug along

Just go with it man. When they asked what I thought I told them it was good. Was nice to see my wife and girls get into a movie about a different more wild time

We saw it last week. It did not follow the book very closely from many aspects. Also several of the scenes were very, very non consistent with Alaska such as pheasants , large trap set by the front door that sprang when cleaning out the cabin, wild boar etc. etc. To me it demonstrates the amount of lack of reality that they feel they can get away with today in the modern world. I enjoyed London's stories. Many of his short stories are very good as well.
