Fords stupid libtard mouth helped tank this movie.
Yup
Maybe they can make it up in China!
What the hell is it about, exactly? I heard the “This Land” commie song in the preview. Put me off tremendously.
Wasn’t Jack London a socialist?
“Sorry Harrison, you lost me when you got political.”
Yep, these people are idiots. I made a mental note to skip the next Indiana Jones movie.
Always assume artistes are until proven otherwise.
That was at best a $10 to $15 Million Dollar picture.
A nature film for the Blade Runner crowd.
A shame, because "Call Of The Wild" is one of my favorite all time books and I've read it at least a dozen times since I was 10 years old. ("White Fang" ranks up pretty high as well.)
Dogs were CGI rendered and that didn't bother me too much, except I was a little disappointed that Buck was rendered as sort of a Saint Benard. In my mind, Buck will always be a husky breed. Rendering of Spitz was much better.
Movie didn't really follow the book as much as I liked. Spoiler alerts: The Indians (Native Americans) at the end were completely eliminated in the movie. Also, François was portrayed by a woman (Cara Gee) and Perrault by a black man (Omar Sy). Now I think both Cara and Omar did an excellent job in the movie but the Hollywood political correctness to cast a woman and a black man in place of a couple of salty, swarthy French Canadians just rubs me the wrong way.
As for Harrison Ford, I didn't even recognize him in the role of John Thornton. Unfortunately, Harrison did a poor job as Thornton was the best character in the book.
Overall, I think the movie is worth seeing but wait for it to show up on Netflix. Not worth paying a theater price.
Hairy Son crashes again.
BOL and this time without his plane.
My wife and I saw it...we enjoyed it. No dope, no sex, no nudity, no horror. a nice family movie.
Compared to the crap playing.
Ford blew it when he went political
Oh well...
He should have starred in CALL OF THE WRONG RUNWAY.
Bwahahahahahaha!
I have no respect for Harrison Ford. He’s a climate hypocrite and infected with TDS.
Togo was wonderful, and Willem Dafoe’s chemistry with the pup who played Togo was wonderful. Great, exciting film.
The scenes with the river ice cracking got me every time.
I might go see CoTW at the dollar theater, but HF can FOAD for his comments.
The sooner Hollywood is just a distant memory of how it turned to crap and died, the better.
I miss the Duke.
Read the book. Much better than a movie. White Fang is another great book.
Harrison Ford called President Trump a “son of a bitch” on late night TV a week or two ago, so Ford can go eff himself as far as I’m concerned.
I’m glad his crappy movie bombed at the box office.
