Synopsis:
Walt Disney studios had previously adapted Sheila Burnford's classic animal-adventure novel The Incredible Journey in 1963, and the story proves just as durable in this popular 1993 version, in which the heroic trio of animals are given voices provided by Don Ameche, Michael J. Fox, and Sally Field. They don't actually speak (like the clever critters in Babe), but we hear their "voices" as the lost household pets--Shadow the golden retriever, Chance the bulldog, and Sassy the cat--survive a harrowing series of adventures as they struggle to find their way home.
Perfect entertainment for kids, this frequently clever movie offers an abundance of wildlife and beautiful location scenery, and the vocal performances by Ameche, Fox, and Field are surprisingly effective. A hit with parents and children alike, the film was followed by a sequel in 1996.
Only a heartless cynic would not be moved by the delightful HOMEWARD BOUND. A revisiting of an earlier Disney classic, this family film offers us Michael J. Fox, Don Ameche and Sally Field as the voices of the intrepid trio who venture out on a journey to go home, and the adventures they encounter.
Robert Hays and Kim Griest are the parents, and Jean Smart has a nice turn as a friend who offers to babysit the animals when the family moves to San Francisco. The photography is beautiful and the animals are delightful; the vocal stars do a great job in elicting the characters of their respective pets. Field is especially fine as the fussy feline. Overall, a wonderful film for the whole family.
