    I was actually expecting this to be better I was actually a bit dissappointed with this film because I thought this would of been pretty good but it wasn't.

    If you avoid from seeing this then you are not really missing anything.
    Lots of this can be improved with this film her...( read more)e are some examples.

    1.They can of made the plot more interesting
    2.They could improve the acting a bit more.
    3.They could of showed more love in this film because this film was kind of a love story.
    4.They could improve the ending a bit more because I didn't really know until they showed the casts at the end that it was the end of the film.
    5.They could of made the begining a bit more interesting.
    6.They could of had more visual affects in this film or more good twists.
    7.They could of improved the picture of the film.
    8.They could of made the film a bit funnier in to more of a comedy so it will be nicer to watch.
    9.The film was a bit too long so they could of shortened the film.
    10.They could of add more deeper voices from the actors and more amotions from the actors/actresses.

    Hello, I have not seen Lassie yet, but do intend to watch the movie either on the big sceen or on my dvd at home.
    All animal movies are good to view, lassie was a very well trained actor, I was told Lassie was really a laddie.
    I look forward to either buying or viewing the movie on the cinema then I will send you my rating. Cheers movie buff
