The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

We love this movie and still use quotes Years later. Unfortunately, outside of our little family- no one actually "gets" what we are referring to. If I find this movie, I am buying a copy for each member of my family. So, we can show it to others when they ask. It will be a great find, it I can locate it. Our family has a vivid imagination and the idea of puppies that can talk, has always been a wish. We think the colors and the excitement of discovery and adventure is a great theme. Being Irish we always think there is Magic just out of sight, so the Fluppy Dogs hold real appeal. There is no one that can make movies like the Disney group. I just do not see why this would not be re-released.

I cannot believe after years of searching for this film I have finally found some information about it!! I remember my mum taped this film for me when I was about 3 or 4 and I loved it (although I can't remember what happened now and didn't help the fact that I've been calling it the Fluffies all this time as that's how I pronounced Fluppies apparently!) and it unfortunately got taped over :( i cannot find a copy anywhere and I am gutted! If anyone does find a copy please share!! I remember watching it when I was about 3 or 4 and 23 odd years later I would still happily sit down and watch it! Awesome film Disney needs to re release!!

I would really like a copy of this for my future children... I used to watch this when I was young , but its probably been 15 years...all I can remember is colorful scenes of crystals and out of this world flowers... Uniquely Magical it is I cannot believe that it isn't recognized for that. I wish Disney would release it on DVD I wish there was somewhere to at least watch it again. This is the only child's movie that has really stuck with me even if it was only that one scene, I remember watching it and knowing that I would never forget it. I feel bad for the others also that seem to be in the same situation. If anyone knows of a place to obtain a copy or to view it if they could please share it with the rest of us I think everyone would really appreciate it, it would be even better if Disney re-released this to DVD so the legacy wouldn't disappear with the 80's generation.

I totally loved this movie, it's just so cute I don't know how anyone could not think the same. I would also like to own this movie so if anyone knows a place to get ahold of it please post it. My favorite part of this movie is when they're in the mansion and the boy scratches the dogs head and then all of the other animals get out of their cages, it's just too adorable!!!!
