Based on Wilson Rawls's 1961 novel of the same name, Where the Red Fern Grows is the touching story of a 12-year-old, Ozark mountain boy (Joseph Ashton) who wants a dog so badly he performs odd jobs for months and saves enough to get two hunting hounds. Just as he hoped, the dogs usher in a period of golden adventure and happiness. Moreover, the pets prove profitable at awards shows and courageous while fending off danger from wild animals. No story about a farm boy and his best four-legged pals is complete, however, without sacrifice and ensuing wisdom; Where the Red Fern Grows has plenty of both. This 2003 feature is co-directed by the original 1974 film's producer and screenwriter, Lyman Dayton, and while it is both efficient and emotionally effective, one might have expected this second go-round to be a bit more deeply felt. Supporting performances by Dabney Coleman and Kris Kristofferson are commendable, while Dave Matthews (yes, that Dave Matthews) has a sweet presence as the hero's kind father. --Tom Keogh

I showed this movie to my 4th graders after reading the book to them. They were a little disappointed with the movie. It left out some crucial scenes that lead the reader/watcher to make a connection to Billy and so the movie is not as meaningful as the book.

This version of Where The Red Fern Grows is much more like the book than the older version. It shows more of the hard work and determined effort that went into getting the dogs. The whole family loves it, it was a tear jerker too, because we recently lost our Little Ann.

Billy Coleman, a ten-year-old boy, wanted a pair of hunting dogs. Following his grandfather's advice, Billy worked hard and saved until he had enough money to buy them. The movie does not really show you that it took Billy two years to earn this money. Once he gets the dogs, Billy patiently trains them to hunt and they become the best in the state. Being best, however, is not always enough as love given and returned form the basis of true caring and courage. The hunting dogs, Old Dan and Little Ann ... Read More

I think the biggest problem with this movie is the casting. The actress who plays the supposed mother living in the middle of nowhere looks like a model, and has very odd and awkward expressions. The gentleman who plays the father acts poorly, the young man who plays the lead character feels much older than he is supposed to be, and plays the part a bit too goody goody for believability. The only part well played in the movie is the part played by Dabney Coleman. This movie feels like a cheap made ... Read More
