 "Best children's movie!"A touching story about a curious cat(Milo) and a pug-nosed puppy (otis) being best friends with each other. They are separated apart and they miss each other. Milo got carried away by a raging river. If you have a child. Please buy this film for them. It is the best! "Delightful!"This is a cute little story about a friendship between an adorable cat (Milo) and dog (Otis). Dudley Moore is superb in his narration of the animal antics and precarious situations. Very entertaining and educational for children.  "The truth about cats and dogs"The first time I watched this movie I found it very difficult to understand. I couldn't follow the plot at all... then I realized that I had rented the Japanese version featuring the talented Shigeru Tsuyuguchi as the narrator. After some research, I discovered that an American version of this movie was available with narration by the late, great Dudley Moore. While Dudley Moore's narration is charming and informative, I found the movie to be terribly misleading. Cats and dogs do not like each other - never have, never will. When the adorable dog (Otis) and the mischievous kitty (Milo) are separated after their day of carefree, reckless abandon, the two "friends" are sent on reluctant, yet incredible journey to find each other. A cat in search of a lost dog? A dog in search of a lost cat? Forgive me while I scoff in disbelief. It's movies like "The Adventures of Milo and Otis" that give children ideas about how to rebel against society. Milo tells us that it's okay to jump on a raft and get swept down a set of treacherous rapids. Otis tells us that it's okay to confront ferocious grizzly bears, and that a cute little wag of the tail will make everything alright. The creators of this movie should be ashamed of themselves... teaching children lessons like this. Getting lost in the wilderness is not a "fun adventure", it's often a terrifying and lonely experience. I expected a little more common sense from a children's movie... "The best movie with cute animals!"It took four years to make this movie, but it is really good. I love kittens and puppies. Milo and otis meet each other after they are born. They become best friends. Then one day, Milo was swept away by a raging river and Otis tried to rescue Milo, but Milo stayed in the box he was in that swept him away from his home. That is when Otis starts the huge journey looking for his best pal, Milo. This movie was made in Japan. My advice is buy this movie. It will touch your heart! "too cute for tv"this is the best movie ever made. it is great, and there is never a dull moment. i can't give any less then 5 stars. then i would be lying. the animals are so adorable. i've only seen it once but it is still my favorite movie. it is a great story of animals and adventure, that makes you want to watch it over and over, until you can't take it anymore! it's so good! it is truly to cute for tv. |
