Leavening the Jack London adventure staple with striking CGI animal effects, this engaging effort follows the odyssey of Buck, the sturdy mutt stolen from his home in 1890s California and shipped to the Yukon for service as a sled dog during the Klondike Gold Rush. Rescued from an abusive owner by elderly prospector John Thornton (Harrison Ford), the two forge a bond that will be tried by unforgiving fate. Dan Stevens, Omar Sy, Karen Gillan, Bradley Whitford also star. 100 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English. Two-disc set.

Walter Matthau is absolutely outstanding in this role with George Burns as his old partner who can't stand each other, but they have the utmost respect for each other. Burns won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor and Matthau "lost" Best Actor to Jack Nicholson for his role in One Who Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.
Also this is based on a play by Neil Simon who also wrote The Odd Couple.

2 out of 5Mailed it in the box the product comes in...
By Aliengare
from Florida
The product itself is good (it gets 5 stars); however, I always keep my boxes for any photography equipment I purchase.
BB shipped my item utilizing the box that the product comes in. Which I didnt like (all the shipping stickers and so on and so forth all attached to the now dented box).
It’s like buying a camera and mailing it in the box the camera actually comes in...
Soooo, No, i don’t like the business end of this order, but the product itself (what comes in the box) is great

1 out of 5Great Build Quality but Missing Piece
By Tyler
from Jacksonville, FL, USA
I'm a huge fan of Manfrotto products because I think they always have a sturdy build quality. This particular tripod is very sturdy and stable, but also very lightweight at the same time. The reason I am giving it a 1 star review though is because when I purchased the tripod, it did not come with the 3-way head to actually mount the camera to. It was completely missing the quick release plate with the threaded bolt to attach the camera to, so I can't actually use the tripod. Very disappointed in the fact that I did not receive all the pieces with it. Unfortunately I cannot return it either since I did not open it until after the return period had passed.

By mbcontorchick

Howard Rollins, Jr. was excellent in this movie. He plays an African American officer sent to the South to investigate a murder of an African American soldier. Excellent acting by well known actors. Terrible waste that Howard Rollins ended up killing himself later in life. He was a great actor!!

1 out of 5good lens Bad customer service
By Diana
In deed is a good lens but unfortunately it only worked two times, after that the auto focus system just stopped. I used this lens for my brother's wedding which was a fiasco. Best buy didn't want to be responsable for the defective lens sending me straight to Nikon company. Sending my lens I have to pay $35 to cover insurance and shipping to be fix a lens that originally bought brand new. I'm still waiting for repair mmm I'm just wondering who should be responsable to pay insurance and shipping cost because if something happens to the lens ongoing to Nikon. They won't pay nothing if is not insuranced for a third party. That makes me feel frustrated and think twice before buying Nikon product next time. All this happened in a time lapse of 45 days Since I bought the lens.

You are always on the edge of your seat watching this histotical event. Although it was impossible to recreate the actual happenings this film attempts to present things the way they actually occurred. It is shameful for our country to act this way. This film is great!

This tense and terrifying romantic thriller delivers Inchscreams aplentyInch (Variety) and Incha corker of a climaxInch (Rolling Stone)! Julia Roberts stars as Laura, a young woman who thinks she's found the man of her dreams in Martin (Patrick Bergin). But after they are married, Laura discovers the InchrealInch Martin compulsive, controlling and dangerously violent. She escapes by faking her own death and relocating to a small Midwestern town. But even with a new identity, Laura lives in fear, stalked by the memory of Martin's brutality; a memory that comes to life with a vengeance when he discovers that she is still alive!

I especially loved Julia Roberts when she left her abusive husband. He didn't treat her right. I myself had to do the same thing in my life, so I can relate to her situation. I loved when she shot that man in the end. I was like good for you Julia.

I'll sum up this review on this note after watching this phenomenal, incredibly well directed and produced art form.
Kudos to the All Star Cast, Director and Producers!
I was moved, touch and overrun with emotion to confirm what I know already about why authoritative abuse is still evident and wide spread in modern day society, with no end in site!
My hope is that this movie will break the frozen mentality of those who say, "things are so much better and there is no need to change anything".
I strongly encourage everyone from all ethnicities to watch this movie and maybe then society will become more focus and less tolerant of acceptance.
Maybe this excellent movie will serve as a precursor to invoke change!
