REALLY BAD, BAD, BAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This movie is BAD!!!! I HATED IT! A poor dog is ALWAYS dieing in this flim! And SO many dogs that were suffering didn't get to a good home! And poor Buck(The star/dog-German Shepherd)
Buck had to suffer in almost THE WHOLE MOVIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WHAT makes Jack London(The Writer) think that people wiil want to read or watch abused and dieing dogs????!!!!!!!! And at the end Buck's owner dies and Buck is left living with the wolves. Sure he's got a family. BUT he still could get shot and killed!
This movie is NOT good for little kids! SAVE YOUR MONEY!!!

there is another version that is fabulous
this charleton heston version is not the only version of this
famed novel in movie form.

some years ago, the 'family' channel' aired "call of the wild" starring rutger hauer. i dont know if it was made for tv or what but it was outstanding--superb!!--one of the finest animal movies of all times. moved one to tears and the dob used to portray "buck" was superb.

i just cant say enough about the movie--i have an old copy and watch if all the time. it so sooooo moving
ive never seen a rendition of a jack london movie this good--its riple better than ethan hawke in white fang and i love that movie too.

it would rate a 12 on a scale of 1-10. the music to the rutger hauer version alone was worth the movie--incredible--

if anyone knows where one can get copy this tv movie better
share it bc these people on here watching the heston version
are missing out one of the greatest animal movie versions ever.
the hauer version is stunning photography, incredible hautning music scoree and simply oustanding performances.

One other good line
From Winthrop Harrison "winharrison" review:

"Still, this dull film contains one classic Chuck Heston line - words he was born to speak: "Mister, if you touch that dog again I'm gonna shoot ya!" Yippee!"

There is one other great Heston line in this film. With Buck growling at a malevolent frenchman, Heston says, with rifle in hand, "My dog don't like the way you smell."

There. Now you don't have to watch the movie!
