We love this movie. My 4 year old especially loves this movie. We watched it over and over again, and I never get tired of seeing it. My son loves this movie so much that he is "Iron Will" He acts out the entire movie. He uses his wagon as the sled, puts his snow pants and boots on, has a bag he packs for his trip across Canada and US. He has even changed our dogs name to Gus (the lead dog in the movie) and tried to hook her up to his wagon to pull his sled, but no go!
It is a great "feel good" movie. It is about the courage and determination a 17 year old faces running a 500 mile dog sled race alone, before televsions and high-tech equipment - just shear will! It truly is an amazing movie.
There are a few scenes involving death and dying that I thought my 2 and 4 years old would have a problem with, but it didn't seem to bother either of them. I highly recommend this movie. |
