    Very loveable family tale of the friendship between a pug nosed puppy and a curious ginger kitten. Ultimately cutesy and more amusing than funny, but still enjoyable mostly thanks to Dudley Moores thoughtful narration. Perhaps a little dated since 1986 and the techniques of the J...( read more)apanese creators must come into question since cats don't swim and dogs don't fly (but both happen on screen). So if the idea of watching a pair of ridiculously cute creatures doesn't make you completely nauseous, track this one down.

    Nothing like watching cute animals getting killed on screen by Japanese for American kicks. Still, first movie I ever cried in. I soothed myself by saying it was movie tricks, but upon re-watching they totally just freaking slaughtered lots and lots of puppies and kitties.

    Had a picture book of this movie in 1st grade and I read it over and over again. I loved the story back then, don't know how much it'd do for me now.

    Good film, but not something you'd want to repeat.

    Cleverly filmed family movie, enjoyable, certainly cute. Dudley Moore's narration can is very enthusiastic but also can sometimes be a bit irritating. It's hard not to like a film with adorable puppies and kittens.

    This movie made me cry buckets as a kid. And, okay, as a grown-up. It's a little alarming what they did to animals to make this movie, but I find I have to ignore that.

    Milo and Otis was a slightly above average film, some parts were fairly boring but the movie carried you through to the end.
