Watch Bingo For Free

So much average

Don't listen to the negative reviews

Absolutely Fantastic

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

In this complicated world, troubled by reality shows and drama, Bingo is a sure remedy. Cindy Williams, best known s Shirley Feeney from her popular spin off of Happy Days plays the young boy's mom and she was the movie's star, perhaps the only well-known person in the film and not a major movie actor. The young boy, Chuckie is the voice of reason in his dysfunctional family with rather cold and negligent parents, such as his harsh, contemptible father, a struggling NFL Player and a mean older brother. Being born in 1944 and the movie being released 47 years later, David Rasche looked simply too old to be in the NFL. Bingo is very sharp and intelligent and his capabilities seem far-fetched but might be conceivable. The dog saves Chuckie's life after being knocked out in the stream and the two spend a night or two in the forest and then return home and skateboard, play video games, do math homework and go fishing all the while hiding the dog from his family. Chuckie's father gets inconveniently traded from Denver to Green Bay and Chuckie's attempts to sneak Bingo in the car fail and he chases after them in the car, only to be too slow. The Journey to find Chuckie is a real hoot, he encounters some really flaky and dysfunctional characters that largely parodied the Heartland. He rescues all the dogs from a cruel roadside restaurant Chuckie's family stopped at for lunch and drives the cruel owners in a cage in the truck and makes them crash into the joint. Then he meets the two comic villains that fit a classic movie stereotype; Lennie, is the big and tall guy who is more warmhearted and inept, as well as environmental, while the shorter of the two, Eli, is more sinister and villainous, but the two are a great comic duo whom Bingo first encounters in a motor home where the do held a quirky family with mom, dad and two eccentric girls hostage. Bingo gets them arrested and even the dog gets summoned to court! Bingo gets out of jail and somehow the villains break loose and after more misadventures Bingo finally makes it to Green Bay where a wacky local restaurant hires him as an assistant dishwasher and the villains capture Bingo and Chuckie finds him again before a lot of chaos. The movie shows the amazing instinct and capabilities of man's Best friend. However, this is in no way just for kids. Some of the content made it seem on the edge for a family film. There is a lot of bad language and a couple inappropriate moments and the climax is pretty dramatic and tense for a lighthearted comedy. I saw this movie several times on video when i was little after it was a new movie and maybe when I was a little older. The movie truly cheers me up when I could use a smile.

I've loved this movie since I was 6 years old. I found it pretty amazing that one dog walked a long journey from Colorado to Wisconsin and did not get hit by a car. He did have several mishaps along the way of finding Chuckie and his family. The saddest part of the movie is in the scene when Bingo has to jump through that ring of fire during the circus show and seeing the fire reminds him of when he was a puppy and the pet store he was born in caught on fire and his mother was lying halfway out of a cage dead. And the next scene in Bingo's recollection where he was sitting in front of his mother's memorial fountain that read: "TAFFY- Beloved Mother" made it even more sad.I almost cried.The rest of the movie was very funny. I thought it was really cool during that hospital scene in the last 10 minutes of the film where every single person bingo met on his journey came together to visit him and wish him well. I'm 20 and I STILL love this movie

I've noticed from some of the reviews here and from remarks made by a number of my friends who have seen this movie that far too many people seem to be judging this movie as a children's film. Strange as it may seem this film isn't a kids film, nor is it a documentary, it's not a sickly-sweet boy loves dog movie either, this has got to be one of the most scathing satires ever made. The film lumps together elements borrowed from "Lassie", "Rin Tin Tin", "The littlest Hobo", "Skippy the bush kangaroo" and many more and then gleefully turns them all on their head in a brilliant parody. Unfortunately too many people see only a kids film and judge it on that basis when in reality it is a movie aimed at adults poking fun at the films those self same adults enjoyed as children. My only criticism is that the movie seems to have missed its intended target. Either the director and screen writers misjudged their audience or the audience are misjudging the film. What a pity as this movie is a pure gem.

The language and obscene gestures used through out the movie, do not make this one suitable for children under the age of 13.It starts when the main character meets Bingo with delightful screams of "HOLY SH__!" and screaming matches calling each other "Chicken SH__!" as well as the Parents bickering like 10 year-olds and giving each other the finger when they turn their backs.Some of the humor is suitable for young adults and adults but small children should not see this one.As an adult I found the language offensive and it did not add to the movie's value one bit.
