Reviewer notes
Not recommended**A Soulless, Toothless Film** With The Call of the Wild, Disney takes a legendary novel and turns it into a bland, watered-down version where everything feels fake—from the CGI dog to the lead actor who looks like he regrets his career choices. This is a film that wants to talk about primal instincts but doesn’t have a shred of authenticity.…
Not recommendedW.C. Fields said you should never work with children or animals. Thanks to CGI technology, you don’t have to anymore – at least not with animals. Buck, the main dog in The Call of the Wild, appears to be a cross between Beethoven and Roger Rabbit.…

RecommendedTrusted family reviewersIf you enjoy reading my Spoiler-Free reviews, please follow my blog @ https://www.msbreviews.com I couldn't catch The Call of the Wild when it premiered. Therefore, I didn't remember a single thing about it when I went to watch it yesterday at an empty screening (yei). Once again, I stayed away from trailers, but a few images popped up at the time. The CGI dog didn't look good at all.…
