Title: Cute Family Fun
Review: The lighter side of Cuba Gooding Jr. is played to perfection in this little family gem. Nowhere near a great movie, but extremely entertaining, especially if you have little ones around. A successful African-American dentist(Gooding), finds out he was adopted, and leaves Miami to collect an inheritance after the death of his birth mother in small town Alaska; a shack and a pack of sled dogs. He also meets and falls in love with Barb, played by the stunningly beautiful Joanna Bacalso who show's him the ropes of sledding. That's when much of the laughter begins.Fine supporting cast, including a very grumpy James Coburn in one of his last screen performances, and Nichelle Nichols of TV's Star Trek, playing Cuba's adopted mom; still gorgeous beyond her years. And no, the dogs don't talk throughout the film, only during one dream sequence. A fact that disappointed many viewers. A real family film to get everyone together over.
