“The Call of The Wild is a solid, incredibly well made movie. Buck is an extremely likeable protagonist who goes on a compelling journey of self discovery. Despite being a dog and not having a word of dialogue, Buck is an incredibly interesting, three dimensional character with a well developed arc. The CGI used to bring him to life is amazing. While it doesnu0026#39;t always look natural, Bucku0026#39;s CGI model is so expressive and can cause the viewer to experience a variety of different emotions, despite not even being there. Harrison Ford also does well as the elderly, depressed John Thornton, carrying a great deal of tragedy and mystery about his past throughout the movie. The movie also features stunning cinematography, with several beautiful shots and camera angles. Itu0026#39;s a true joy to look at. However, there are a few problems with the movie. For starters, John Thornton narrates a lot throughout the movie, despite not being present for, and therefore having no way of knowing about, the events that heu0026#39;s describing. Another issue is Dan Stevensu0026#39; character; Hal. Hal is an entirely unnecessary, one dimensional antagonist, who just doesnu0026#39;t work with the story this movie is trying to tell. His presence also completely derails John Thorntonu0026#39;s resolution. However, despite these problems, I still recommend The Call Of The Wild. Itu0026#39;s a fantastic movie, with an incredible protagonist and stunningly beautiful visuals that you shouldnu0026#39;t miss.”
