Well Deserved Praise

The greatest movie ever made..!

Excellent, Without a doubt!!

It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

This is an excellent movie for adults and children. It is about real life, which children need to see now more than ever. Preventing children from learning what nature does - is a disservice to say the least. Without real world knowledge, children grow up with a backwards mind, thinking the world owes them a living, everything can be a utopia, nothing can ever die, mankind is responsible for everything bad, big government is best, on and on foolishness like that. This movie just shows how nature is more powerful and mighty than man can ever be. Man is not the enemy here. As some would have you think. So don't be brainwashed like the left. People need to return to common sense and logic of years ago. Stories like Old Yeller and such teach children correctly. So throw away modern books and movies that lie constantly to your kids. Buy old movies and books for real life accuracy. And monitor what your kids are taught by the public schools. Many of them if not all are indoctrinating your beloved kids into mindless puppets of the government. Stay away from Scholastic publishing too. Over the years they have also been hijacked by the sick ideologues of progressive liberals. This is a great movie for all. Beautiful music that will give you more compassion in your heart than you would ever need. A loving picture with substance that touches your very soul. Conservatives will love this movie the most, because of their good hearts. Just make sure you bring tissues.

I saw this movie as a child, and it really moved me. I would love to be able to show it to my children, but I can't find it anywhere. This is a shame; as I recall, it was incredible. I still remember one of the songs and all the emotions, the joys and sorrows, associated with this fox family.The movie follows a fox family through several seasons, depicting the realities of living on this hear earth, holding nothing back. It's on par with the book, Where the Red Fern Grows, only the good and the bad are intermixed, and overall the movie ends on a positive note. Life, after all, goes on.

I saw this movie when I was little - It was called "Glacier Fox". I was totally traumatized by it! It follows a cute little fox family around. The beginning was great and I remember becoming very attached to the little foxes. I also remember my mother carrying me out of the theater while I was in hysterics. I won't tell you what happened, but let's just say it doesn't end well for all of the foxes. I was used to Disney type nature films where the animals don't REALLY die. Oh man. This movie made me cry for hours. It was a good movie...I think - I was really little and truth be told -all I remember is being happy for the foxes and then seeing one of them die. Rent it if you can, but don't show your kids!

I watched this movie when I was almost quite a kid, and, naturally, was moved to tears by this story of a fox family. The fantastic scenery at Hokkaidô, the excellent storytelling and last not least the wonderful soundtrack provide a rare intimacy with the protagonists. I am still searching for some copy of the gorgeous soundtrack. To German viewers it might be useful to know that the DEFA-dubbing is the only one worth listening to. I taped both (DEFA and BR) but I keep viewing the first one only.
