Title: High hopes fizzled
Product review: A true story (although the real one took place in Japan, not Connecticut), so many people recommended this to me, that I had high hopes.But how much cute play time between a man and dog can a moviegoer endure? The rest of the move - dialog between husband and wife, the clumsy son-in-law, the fact that absolutely EVERYONE in town knows EVERYONE.The handsome Gere and three beautiful dogs (puppy, main star and elder animal) can't rescue this movie from the bottom of the heap.Hachi might have waited nine years for his owner to return. But you'll not want to be returning to this rendition very often.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
