If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
They should be making more films like these perfect for the whole family to watch. Great movie!, was watching it with my nephews and nieces and they all loved it. Im still trying to find some more films like these.They should be making more films like these perfect for the whole family to watch.

Normally when i see a movie after I've read the book, i'm usually disappointed because my imagination is usually bigger than what they can put on the screen with time limitations and budgets - but not this movie. The minute i started watching this movie i was hooked. I haven't read the book in years, but I've read the book at least two or three times, and this movie brought back some great memories, and certain parts of the movie was almost exactly like i imagined (especially the coon contest).Set in the Ozarks in the 1930's, this movie shows what kids did before computers, cell phones and video games. It also shows that life is very fragile, with Rubin Pritchard dying by simply trying to break up a dog fight and falling on his hatchet. But overall this is a feel good movie for the whole family, even though both dogs die in the end - it ends nicely with a nice montage of Billy Coleman and his dogs, and knowing that Dan and Lil' Ann will live for eternity through the book, this movie and where the red fern grows.
Where the Red Fern grows is a heart warming movie, this movie reminds me of my childhood. I miss the days when i ran wild and free and kept in touch with nature, i didn't need a cell phone, TV or internet to be entertained. Billy had a innocent up bringing he is persistent and a hard worker. The Coleman family were respectful and had good morals. Billy got a pair of dogs which he loved and also teaching him responsibility, he spent most of his time with his dogs hunting racoon's, keeping him busy and out of trouble. This movie taught me material things don't always make u happy and also to be grateful for my family and for the things I have
this is a great movie but when old Dan died and then little Anne died why did they move they should have stayed in the Ozark mountains where the dogs were. When they died i cried and cried. If you are reading this and have not seen the movie yet i have something to tell you. Get a box of Kleenex's right beside you and believe me it is a really sad movie. I have watched this movie a lot of times and every time i still cry i even cry when i think about it because i have three dogs my self and one of them is a hound. When he grew up he should have gone back to the Ozark mountains to see there grave. This movie really is a heart warming movie so make sure you have that box of Kleenex's by you because you will need them.NOTE:Listen to every word they say and make sure you look at how cute Little Anne and Big Dan.
