Editorial Reviews

An unabashedly sentimental coming-of-age story, My Dog Skip lovingly depicts life in a small Mississippi town, as seen through the eyes of a sensitive young boy. Wide-eyed Frankie Muniz (of the hit Fox sitcom "Malcolm in the Middle") plays Willie, a socially awkward, athletically challenged youth whose doting mom (Diane Lane) gives him a puppy over the objections of his disciplinarian dad (Kevin Bacon). With the faithful "Skipper" for a constant companion, Willie tackles the challenges posed by adolescence and grows into an assured young man. Based on an autobiographical novella by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Willie Morris, My Dog Skip re-creates World War II-era Mississippi with painstaking accuracy, confronting with admirable objectivity such issues as racial segregation and the plight of returning veterans. Director Jay Russell doesn't shy away from scenes of high drama, but he infuses the film with warmth and humor, guaranteeing a memorable viewing experience for the whole family. Ed Hulse, Barnes & Noble

When Life Followed an Easier Paceby BrandywinePA

July 19, 2009: Wonderful movie in an era in which Trains had names, Neighbors were with you for a lifetime and the moral compass was uncluttered with the complexity of modern life. I watch it frequently and long for a nation that we have long ago lost-- and the simplicity and innocence of a love between boy and dog, family and friends.

Definitely an eye watering movie!!!by Anonymous

October 19, 2005: My Dog Skip is a FANTASTIC movie for EVERYBODY!!! Showing the relationship between a boy who's only friend enters the War he soon finds a new friend. A DOG he got for his birthday. His dog grows onto him and soon gets him some friends. None that compare to Skip though. "Skip helped me turn from a boy to a man." A great tagline from the movie. Shows what a true relationship a person can have with their pets.
