I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
Now THIS is the kind of movie that Disney should be producing... Something with a positive message that doesn't necessarily further the interests of the Military Entertainment Complex. The idea of "skin-ship" (the "sharing of feelings through physical contact") is EXACTLY the kind of message kids need these days, especially when electronics and "virtual reality" have all but made contact between people (much less people and animals other than house pets) a rarity. (Of course, such contact entails risk, as I found out this past summer. I went to a shelter- which WASN'T a "no-kill" facility- and adopted a pair of kittens. Unfortunately, there were far more cats there than we could possibly afford to adopt- and three days is the "limit" there-, including playful triplets and, sadly, an older cat who was sent to the shelter by a dying man in the hopes that she would be adopted. As if THAT weren't heartbreaking enough, a neighborhood cat gave birth to more than half a dozen kittens- on my back porch or under the house- who proceeded to succumb, one by one, to the relentless HEAT here. I called every single "cat-friendly" organization in town to try to get help, but none of them- not ONE- could (or WOULD) do a thing. So I spent every morning finding and bagging these small, dehydrated bodies... until they were all gone. Contact entails risk, but I think I've come to understand at least one thing: it's only LOVE that makes Life worth living.)
Quill, is a story about a dog's life who seems to born to be a guide dog. The movie shows the process of being a guide dog from a puppy to an adult dog, it has lots of touching moments thats connects with the characters of the story.I had read the book before watching this film, the story really touched me and the movie was a well adapted from the book itself, i cried a lot while i was watching it.The trustworthy bonding between human and dogs are very presented in this film.Overall, it's a very worth watching film whether you read the book or not, but of cause, if you are a dogs lover, i'll say go for it then.. ;)
This is an emotional movie, very heartwarming. A true life story cycle of a guide dog. I've seen it and it warms you up directly for animal lovers and indirectly for non animal lovers. Overall, a good cinematography but more can be add on. They should make more films like this, where they can show us how it looks like in the eyes of these superb creatures created by god for a purpose. Directorship is of this film is good and the director emphasize on balancing the act of both animals and humans in this film. At least, I know now how an animal feels when things like this happens. It just warms your heart when watching this film. In words, its a good movie to watch with your girlfriend who will definitely hold your hand whilst watching this movie.
I saw this movie in the airplane, on my way back from Japan. The movie has a very beautiful music and a nice atmosphere, I want to see it again. Quill is a Japanese version of a Lassie. It made me think really about different matters, I never thought how guide dogs are trained. More interesting, the movie has a pretty nice main character, the blind guy who is refusing to accept that he needs a guide dog. The movie feels very nicely Japanese. Accepting the change is the main topic of the movie, how Quill, the guide dog, finds friends but eventually has to part from them. Eventually, isn't that what happens to all of us?
