FEEDBACK:
A moving movie for the whole family. A great starting point to talk to children about pets, death and loyalty.The real star of this movie is Hachi and I love how the director
showed scenes from the dog’s point of view. Richard Gere wasn’t too bad
himself here, just being his classic self while the others made an
adequate supporting cast.This one’s a really nice, heartwarming film that shows us the value of family loyalty and life-long friendship. Everyone can learn something from Hachi. This movie really made me cry.Dog-lovers might want to prepare some tissues when watching this.
