Review of Togo (2019) by Bshu89 — 13 Aug 2021
Togo is without a doubt a surprise hit, in my opinion. When it comes to dog centric films, I tend to not watch them because let’s just be honest - most of them are sad. Beautiful, but sad. Togo may look like just another Disney dog movie, but it is so much more. This film blew me away from start to finish. And one really interesting fact about this film is it IS based on a true story. I even fact checked the movie after and was floored to find how truly faithful this movie is to the real events.
If you grew up with the animated film Balto, I can’t recommend the watch more, it takes the story of a dog mushing adventure that we loved as kids but made for the whole family - and especially us adults. Willem Dafoe again proves his worth as an actor, giving a beautiful performance and Julianne Nicholson was a brilliant cast to back his character up. Give it a watch - you don’t be disappointed.
