Product Description
Product Description
The movie that catapulted Benji into international stardom. The #3 movie of the year in its original release. A unique motion picture all told from the heart and soul of a dog.
Benji is the gripping story of a vagabond dog struggling to communicate something he s seen to humans. Humans who need to know but cannot grasp the concept that a dog could possibly help. A story of frustration and persistence, of love and suspense. And the first time ever that a dog has actually acted on the screen. Expressed emotion. And done it so very well that we, the audience, completely understand everything Benji is thinking and doing, every turn and twist, without a word of dialog being spoken.

I want to spend most of my time reviewing this new restored release, but the movie itself is very good for family entertainment. It's a fun, classic movie following a dog's life. A large part of it just follows the dog as he does his daily rounds and how he finds a lady friend and then it leads to him eventually saving the day! It's pretty slow by today's standards and younger kids will probably enjoy it more. It's pretty clean with no bad language and light violence. There is one point where a dog is kicked, but it cuts away right before the actual kick and the dog is ok later. Two kids are kidnapped and yelled at some, but they aren't hurt. The bad guys use guns to threaten and the cops use guns to arrest the bad guys. A gun being shot is show in a flashback, but nobody is shown shot. It's a very clean movie that's great for family entertainment.
It's obvious this is a movie from the 70's, but it's the best I've ever seen it. There is some grain throughout. I wouldn't call it light grain and I wouldn't call it medium grain--somewhere between the two. There's a speck of film damage here and there but you really have to be watching for it to notice. It looks really great. It was a budget release at the time and you can tell the cameras/camera work are less than amazing, but for what it is it looks great.
The sound is nothing amazing, but it lets you hear what people are saying and the music sounds pretty good. All the music is 100% 70's so if you like that style, you'll like the soundtrack.
But overall, it kept the interest of my 3 girls (ages 3-8). Some of it was a little drawn out and repetitive, but the story changes a little each repetition. I think it has a very good lesson about not giving up when you're doing the right thing. It's cute, it's simple, it's good for all ages. We're not going to watch it every week, but I'm glad we've got it and I'll pull it out again on a rainy day this summer! :) I do suggest it. I see that the "For the Love of Benji" restoration is coming out in April 2018, so I'll be picking that one up next.
PS: The other blu-ray version is from a previous distributor and is not Widescreen or High Definition.
My only main, and major gripe with this release, is it's not the theatrical release. It's the one that was cropped down to pan and scan 4:3 aspect ratio for old school television. It would have been awesome to have been able to enjoy the actual theatrical aspect ratio this great movie was shot it. There are so many wonderful reactive details that were happening near the edges of the frame that we're being deprived of in this 4:3 version. That's the only reason I rated it 4 stars instead of 5.
The music is to die for! Very moving, and well scored with multiple genres to please a wide audience.
The story script is just so much fun. Captivating, tear-jerking at times, even a tad frightning to the point of puttig you on the edge of your seat, yet there's nothing that would gross anyone out, nothing that would disturb or upset anyone. It's fun, and family friendly, and I'd really love to see a return to this kind of story telling. It's long past time for a return to quality entertainment of this type.
At least this version is available, which I suppose is better than nothing. AUTHOR: Please give us the full theatrical aspect ratio release.

A movie for the whole family only comments I have to say is the film is too incredible at times that is unbelievable but then again is a doggy hero and it feels like a tv special rather than a movie even though I watch the BLURAY MOVIE.
