 "Fantastic soundtrack, great movie, very compelling."This movie is very compelling. It was well directed and written. Dudley Moore adds a very interesting element with his narration. I would be interested in seeing the original Japaneese version of this movie. I thought the best part of this movie was the soundtrack. I would almost be willing to sell some minor organs to find out what the songs were, and who wrote them. I know most if not all of them are classical pieces. The main theme song is "Of Foreign Lands and People" by Robert Schumann. This movie also contains "Appalachian Spring" by Arron Copland. I have heard it also has Chopin, Debussy, and others. Unfortunatley no soundtrack was ever released for this movie. Too bad. I may never know what some of those songs were.  "Heartwarming/dispel rumors"This movie continues to delight me each and every time I see it. It's a wonderful movie for all ages with universal themes. The cinematography is excellent (filmed entirely in Japan over the course of 4 years), the storyline melts your heart, and Dudley Moore's narration couldn't be more perfect. (...) Bottom line: this movie will not disappoint you. Rent it, buy it, and you'll agree that it was more than worth your time and money.  "Kitten Snuff Film"A deeply troubling film that shows animals, at the very least, in obvious physical distress, and, in all probability, in the midsts of horrific death. According to the American Human Society, it is rumored that as many as 27 cats were killed in the production of this picture in Japan. These are not computer generated special effects; it just wasn't possible to do that in 1986 when this movie was made. The scenes are also just too realistic to have been created any other way. "Excellent For Cat Lovers"I used to love Milo and Otis as a kid. It was one of my favourite videos along with Prancer. The film is moving and very cute. I have always loved cats so the film for me was wonderful. I got to see the cutest kittens and cats while still enjoying a moving story. It is a film you can watch again and again and still enjoy. "So So So Cute!"The Adventures of Milo and Otis is an adorable story about a curious yellow tabby named Milo and his courageous pug puppy pal, Otis, and all the adventures they have after Milo is swept down a river from the farm where they were born. I first watched the Japanese version of this movie as a little girl, and it's remained one of my favorites over the years. A wonderful film for children and adults alike, The Adventures of Milo and Otis has a magical quality that will enchant everyone who watches it! |
