[usr 4.4]
This film review for the movie Balto goes into how the film is a fantastic animated film. Thus the following is just to discuss how well it plays out. The characters in the film are all well written and makes us care for the characters. Therefore, we cannot feel anything but joy whenever they do. We as the audience get to see how the characters react to the situations they find themselves in, especially dire ones. It is hard for an animation to make us feel sympathy for characters sometimes, but this film is an exception.
First of all, the main characters of the film are sled dogs, so that is different already. Next we see the effect that a prejudiced opinion has on the titular character. He is a dog who is willing to do whatever he can to help others. This can be seen with his facial expressions and the expressions of those around him. Following his run in with prejudice because of his being a half wolf mutt, he proves himself for a long distance journey that can save lives. Therefore we feel nothing but excitement by the time you hear his howl near the end of the film.
In Conclusion for this Film Review for the Movie Balto
Throughout the film, Balto is cast aside for sled runs, even though he is just as good as the other dogs. His following actions throughout the rest of the film make everyone see how great he is. Eventually he helps in a huge way saving the lives of children in a small town by delivering medicine. As a matter of fact, this film is based off a true story, which means this dog is responsible for saving many lives. Hopefully this fact alone makes the film worth watching if you haven’t seen it already.
