This Movie is a Great Family Movie for Family Nights

There's an older movie that Homeward Bound was based on. It is called "The Incredible Journey." Some people say that movie is better, and maybe it is. I definitely intend to find out. I've seen some movies on Youtube, maybe it will be there. If it is, I'll definitely watch it. The first Homeward Bound movie definitely had some touching moments. The most touching moment that gripped my heart was a scene at the end when the pets were almost home. These animals were excellent actors. The way they acted on the movie fit really well with their voice overs. The characters were wonderful in these movies. "Sassy" the beautiful Himalayan cat, was a hilarious character in this movie, basically because of her sarcastic wit. She can also be very kind when she wants to be. Especially in the scene where the dog named Chance gets smacked in the face by the tail of a porcupine. (Ouch!) Sassy tries to get the Porcupine needles out of her friend with her teeth, but doesn't succeed because they are in too deep. Or when a young child was lost and scared, Sassy and the dogs kept the child warm until her parents found her. "Shadow" is the name of the older dog. He's a Golden Retriever and he's very wise, and very loving, both with his animal friends, and his human friends. "Chance" is an American Bulldog with a lot of energy and an insatiable curiosity about things that he never knew existed. His curiosity gets him into trouble, like when he wanted to sniff the porcupine. He also almost got in trouble with a huge bear, but ran away from it quickly enough to save himself. In this film, there is a family that is combined by marriage. After the wedding, the family goes on a trip and they decide to leave the animals on a ranch with a friend of theirs. Shadow, the older dog, gets panicky because his family doesn't come back for him and the other two when he thinks they should, so he starts on a long journey back home and the other two follow him because they don't want to be left there. Along the way back home they meet with new adventures. They run into wild animals, and Sassy even survives a great big waterfall. This is a great movie to watch if you have a certain night where you spend time with your family. This movie has a lot of special moments. There are moments where you'll smile, as well as moments where you'll cry, because of the very touching, emotional aspects of it. ________________________________________________________________________________________ Homeward Bound 2 wasn't as good as the first one in my opinion. I liked it, but I think the first one had a better story, and it gripped my heart more. This one is a little similar to the first one. The pets get lost again, but instead of being lost in nature, they get lost in a big city and they have to find their way home again, like in the first one. Along the way, they meet other dogs. Some of the dogs are friendly, and some are mean. The friendly ones try to help them find their way home and the mean ones want to eat Sassy. All the while, Shadow and Chance try to protect Sassy. There are other things that happen to them along the way. It's been a while since I've seen this one so I don't really remember everything. They do make it home eventually, like they did in the first one. Homeward bound 2 is a good adventure story, but it's a different kind of adventure than it's predecessor. I didn't see Homeward Bound 2 in theaters, but I bought this 2-in-1 movie DVD a while back. I've actually seen the first one a lot more times than the second one because we used to have the VHS version of the first when I was a kid. Both are good movies. The first one, though, was excellent.

Family fun on movie night for the kids and some nostalgia for the parents
