It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

I began watching this movie with middle high expectation especially towards the characters. And it didn't disappoint! Balto is an outcast among his fellow dogs in this village because he is part wolf. He constantly mocked by this Husky called Steele who is full of himself. The humans in the village shun him claiming he is dangerous, but this little girl named Rosy is kind to him. Rosy and other children is later stricken by diphtheria and need medicine which is being delivered by sledge. And from that time on the excitement begins. Kevin Bacon, Bob Hoskins and Jim Cummings do great jobs as Balto, Boris and Steele, respectively. Some of the characters also have some clever lines here and there. One of my favorites are when a scared Boris say he "almost had people bumps". But the peak of the movie was the emotional impact the diphtheria- struck village had on me. It was really touching. I won't say more, it would ruin the experience. The animation is neat, not spectacular, but it has some good scenes and some longer passages with good coloring and backgrounds. Aside from that it is the average traditional animation. The only minor problem is Steele's co-dogs who have this mildly annoyingly formulated of talking. It is not throughout the movie, so it is just nitpicking.Balto is a great family movie and is overall highly recommendable.

Balto is a character that never came out of my heart, the film is based on real history and even have altered the original story and the character still looks perfect, shows that even with difficulties Balto has a good heart and cares about people, the feeling is amazing to know that my hero actually existed, the animation is beautiful the songs are amazing and it's a good movie for kids, but I still love him, many characters in this movie are fun and some beautiful estates, like Jenna, she's a beautiful Husky, the love between the two is very great, this movie shows many life lessons, Balto is worthy of being my character and everyone's favorite movie

I love Balto as shows.I give balto all 3 shows a 9 or 10 we watch balto a lot in my house. My husband and I think it would be great if something happened to balto not dead missing and Boris is telling his kids how he met balto how he got separated from his mom who his dad is and his kids have to go find him that would be great. Have balto hurt and can't get home have his kids come together where ever they are even aloo, Kodiak, and what ever the others name is have it where they have to find their father and get him home, maybe they have to go through some things to get there. But first have all the children there and Boris telling them how balto came to be with him and learn all about their father and what they learned will help them find balto. The show could show aloo out in the wild with the wolf pack and all of a sudden have a vision of something happening to her father. Then she goes home and gathers up her brothers and sisters to help her in finding her father and bringing him back home safely. It may be something that happened to him while he was out in the plane with Duke or some other way he gets injured and cannot make it back home. I am not submitting this to have it posted I am submitting it to be able to have another balto cartoon or movie to watch. The first three are great and one that explains how balto ended up in Nome Alaska would just tie everything together.

i love this movie to death, its an amazing story with a great plot and good characters. i would recommend this movie to anyone who loves dogs and/or wolves. overall, 10 out of 10. while the original movie was great the two other movies, Balto wolf quest and Balto Wings Of Change where no where near as good as the original. i won't say that there bad, there just a let down compared to the original. the story is heart warming and nice, in fact, ever since i saw the movie i couldn't get enough. i first saw it last summer and was instantly hooked, mostly because i love talking dogs. while the movies are meant for young children, if you love cute stories and cute characters, this is the movie for you.
