Vuk - Il cucciolo di volpe

The screenplay of this animated movie had been based on the classic novel by István Fekete, of the same title (freely, but not aggressively). The story starts with a tragedy in the fox-family, which leaves Vuk the little fox as an orphan, all alone in the woods (I wouldn't call this a spoiler... Right after the film boosts off, hell breaks loose). Despite the fact you haven't get to know his family too much, this scene surely gonna bring tears to your eyes... for the first time in this movie. For its a story about LIFE itself, with all its tragedies and joys. We follow Vuk from this moment till the time himself becomes a father too. Through this period, we watch him as he explores the world around him, learns to hunt, to move like a shadow, meets new friends and foes, falls in love, and eventually: grows up. We see as the many events in of the story changes the motivation in the way he lives his life, and we get the chance to watch this character advancing WITHOUT being forced to struggle trough several morals of the fable, and several annoying cliché's you might get used to in cartoons. Simply: wonderful!:)

In case of movies that were commented by a lot of users, it might work, but to give 5.8 for this movie when out of 40 votes (at present) only 3 was below seven, and 42% voted this movie 10, it is really not working. This movie is simply great, beautiful, moving, I loved it with my all heart as a child and cried together with the other kids in the kindergarten...I don't repeat the story, but this is really a uniquely nice movie and it is really a shame that it seems to be some 5.8 crap only because of this weighted rating.

I remember watching this when I was a kid. The English version is called The Little Fox and the main character is called Vick instead of Vuk. My cousin and I always would argue over who got to have the VHS at their house because we had to share it. It's a great movie for kids, especially if they like animals. I don't recall any stupid or annoying songs in this movie so that's a major plus if you have kids. You won't be listening to something like "let it go" for 10 hours a day for the next year, which isn't even a bad song until it grates on your nerves for so long. It's also nice to have that classic animation style rather than everything being forcibly represented in CGI.

Lovely animated film, we loved it as children! It includes both some really sad moments (including the death of sympathetic characters - a topic rarely treated in children's films), but also some funny ones, like the hilarious scene where the two geese get drunk or the scenes that feature the two stupid dogs. It is a nice, moving, often funny, sometimes serious story both children and adults can well relate to. I would recommend it to anyone interested in "non-Disney" animated movies.

It's funny how I stumbled on this movie. It all began with a fan fiction character I created named "Roka Embers" which is a Hungarian name. I got curious and typed that name on you tube. I found some old Hungarian cartoons including this title. I watched it in Hungarian, and then found an English version.

I love the movie! It is one of the few animated movies that you really just fall in love with. The comic relief mixed in with the more serious and idealogical aspects make this a classic I won't soon forget. I would recommend this movie to anyone looking for an old cartoon to watch. I was surprised to actually find the English version. But a good fellow on you tube has a collection of obscure movies and he had some other foreign and domestic films that are rarely seen. But all in all, this is one great movie.
