Red Dog The Movie

Went to the pictures ( shows how long it has been ) They call them the movies now, to see Red Dog. God I don't know how they stand the bloody smell of all that popcorn when you enter the foyer. They also fill the front section up with video games and the noise is a little overpowering.

I found the movie interesting without giving a WOW factor. The first part of the story was little corney I thought and the actors portrayed in a Paul Hogan sort of way. Story line was good with ample times for those who are inclined to have a cry. ( Not me I'm a bloke ).

Well that's done for another 40 years. Oh asked for seniors discount and got in for half price, see getting older does have its advantages.


Cheers Bob

As I said a good flick and only strayed enough to make a good yarn.

Ran true to the book apart from the ending that was tweaked just a little to make it have more of the Aaaaw factor - if you looked at their ending logically in line with what Red Dog was doing throughout the film it was nonsensical but most wouldn't probably pick up on that point so what the heck - one should never spoil a good movie with truth. :lol: :lol: It still rated a 9.5 out of 10 in my book
