We don't often watch family films here, but this is a cute story about finding the family that you want, not the one you are necessarily born into. Peter Woodward (who was in The Patriot) is really good in this as the grandfather. It's a nice film for young audiences who are animal lovers and may not have seen many coming of age movies.
Mike Disa, who directed this, comes from the animation world, having directed films like Dante's Inferno and Dead Space - based on the video games - and kids movies like Space Dogs: Adventure to the Moon, Postman Pat: The Movie and Hoodwinked Too!
