    Tearjerker from beginning to end

    If you are a dog (or cat) lover, this movie is for you. It made me laugh, smile and even cry. I would watch it with your furry companion, and believe me you would want to watch it with them till the end

    Never get tired of this gem

    I absolutely love Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey always delightful experience! So much cuteness packed into a dangerous and wonderful exploration so much greatness for an animal film! I even get goosebumps at some of it. The cast is perfect for it too.

    Very Nice Family Movie

    Robert Hays and Kim Griest play normal human beings while Sally Field, Michael J. Fox and Ameche are voices of animals. All of them combined to make a nice family movie here, and a pretty successful one at the box office.

    There are many funny lines given to Fox to read as the main character, the dog. Field also has a good lines as the cat while Ameche plays it straight as the mature Golden Retriever.

    The only somewhat-bothersome character is the 13-year-old boy who is impatient and pouty at times, but he gets out that after awhile.

    The scenery is nice, too, with photographers doing a fine job capturing the beauty of California's Sierra mountain range.

    All in all, a very nice movie and highly-recommended for one of those 'family nights.'

    One of my favourite animal movies ever!

    I was very young when I first watched this movie, and I love it just as much today as I did then. The main idea of "Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey" is three pets, Shadow, a wise old golden retriever, Chance, a goofy, fun-loving American bulldog puppy, and Sassy, a hilarious Himalayan cat who are left in the care of their owners' friend that lives hundreds of miles away on a farm. After several days, the pets begin to worry. Thinking that their owners must be in some kind of trouble, they set out on their adventure home.Along the way they encounter many unexpected surprises but their determination and love for their owners helps them in finding their way. For me, this was an unforgettable story of love, courage and devotion that will inspire everyone who watches it. A must see for animal lovers! I give it a 10!

    For the whole family

    Two dogs named Chance (voice by Michael J. Fox) and Shadow (voice by Don Ameche) and a cat named Sassy (voice by Sally Field) are left behind when the family that owns them goes on vacation. They are not sure what happened and therefore they have to find the family. An incredible journey is what is next.

    This is a movie for all ages but especially kids will love this. The animals, the beautiful nature, some nice and funny moments, a good heart and a happy ending, everything what a movie for the whole family needs. Of course the story is simple and some events are quite impossible, but with movies like this you are not suppose to ask too many questions and you must not be too critical.

    Storyline

    • Trivia
      When Shadow falls into a pit and injures his leg, the dog never actually fell into the pit. When he stepped on the boards, they broke, but there was a platform immediately below. Then a fake dog was dropped into the pit and these scenes were edited together. Shadow tries to get out but the pit is large and deep and muddy and he keeps slipping back into the pit because he cannot get a good grip. To accomplish this scene, a special pit was dug which was about three to four feet deep. For the sliding back and forth, one trainer was at the top of the pit calling the dog. Another trainer was at the bottom telling the dog to stay. When he did, he would naturally start sliding downward. The dog could actually walk out on his own at any time and did so several times during the filming. When Shadow does appear at the end of the film to be reunited with Peter, Shadow runs with a limp. This was accomplished by putting part of a round wooden bead between the dog's toes. The bead did not hurt him in any way, but gave him a peculiar sensation, causing him to walk with a limp.

      The marks on Chance's face from getting hit by the porcupine change in nearly every shot, and at one point disappear all together, but are back in the next shot.
    • Quotes

      Shadow: [after Sassy is lost in the river] I shouldn't have made her come.

      Chance: It's not your fault, she wanted to come.

      Shadow: But it's my responsibility. I had a responsibility to Sassy - to love her and protect her - the same as I have to you... and to Peter. And the same as you have to Jamie.

      Chance: But we didn't ask for this job.

      Shadow: We didn't have to. It's built in. Has been ever since the dawn of time... when a few wild dogs took it upon themselves to watch over man, to bark when he's in danger, to run and play with him when he's happy, to nuzzle him when he's lonely. That's why they call us man's best friend.

      Chance: [narrating] Looking at him that night, he seemed so wise... and ancient, like the first dog who ever walked the earth. I just hope that one day, I can be like him.

    • Alternate versions
      Some additional scenes not included on the video release but aired on TV include:
      • A scene where Peter and Jamie wash off Chance after he eats the wedding cake but before he tricks Sassy on the seesaw.
      • A scene in which Kate takes the animals for a ride in the truck.
      • A scene with the kids playing Nintendo when Bob realizes he's been invited to a welcome BBQ on the same day they were supposed to go to Kate's to visit Shadow, Chance, and Sassy.
      • An extended scene of Quentin rescuing Sassy and taking her back to his cabin.
      • The scene where Frank greets Kate upon her return home was extended to show Kate discovering the missing part of her note, calling an animal shelter, and speculating to Frank that the animals left to head home to Fresno before calling a park ranger.
      • A scene where Quentin is playing the saxophone during the evening and then Sassy tying up Quentin's goat when he left his cabin.
      • After seeing the Fresno skyline and before hitting a rail yard, the animals stop at a dumpster where Sassy tries to find food but comes up empty.
