I wanted to give this film a chance. First, the acting is far from memorable. The screenplay is childish and silly in parts. It completely misses the essence of the book which was graphic and heart wrenching. Re-written to the point it only vaguely resembles the book. There's a reason it's not been made into an major film. Almost the entire novel, 90%, takes place within White Fang's mind. How a wolf sees the world; unable to understand human speech and human behavior. His life is pain, bitterness and above all, hate. Not Disney material so they chuck 70% of London's plot out the window. In the book Salvation came only at the end with Weedon Scott, a major character absent in the movie. I get it. "Jack" replaces several characters; three, I think. Anyway... could be mildly entertaining for a family movie night. The kids might like it but probably won't ever ask to watch it again. I'm
Review of White Fang
White Fang
(I) (1991)
Mildly interesting. Falls far short of the novel.
