This movie was a hit with my 7 and 8 year olds. They especially enjoyed the slapstick humor and of course the rude humor of "toots." The movie has a nice moral ending and even though it's based in the middle of WWI it didn't have a lot of violence. It showed how Rin Tin Tin was used as a helper to the wounded, and it touched on the importance of training a dog. There was one scene that was probably the scariest, where a child is almost sold into slavery, however Rin Tin Tin makes trouble for the bad guys and things turn out ok. As far a language goes, the worst thing that is said is, "What the Heck?" I completely recommend this movie. I hope you get to enjoy laughing with your kids as I did.

A heart-warming story filled with realistic World War I scenes in France sets the tone for discovering the true story of the most popular dog star in Hollywood, along with Lassie. Tyler Jensen plays the role of Lee Duncan, the American pilot who found the young German Shepard. Rin Tin Tin survived a bombing at the dog kennel in a very touching moment; Duncan's work to save him while a war progresses really tears at the heart. Jensen's ability to express happiness alongside of emotional pain shines remarkable; it's not an easy feat. He is one of the better young actors for this genre. The professional French critics wouldn't like it, seeing that it reflects happiness and love. This film, however, inspires and uplifts a viewer unless so crusty of soul that love of a dog and it's partner doesn't move you.

Glad to know the story behind the dog. Now would like a sequel about the Hollywood years

So many snarky, negative comments about this movie. C'mon, this was not intended to be a contender for Cannes or Sundance. It's a family-friendly movie for young children in particular ... before they move on from that stage of laughter and fun over things that can be silly and corny to older kids and adults. I watched it because I love German Shepherds.

This is a cute retelling of the classic Rin Tin Tin story. Adults beware, there are several corny scenes, but my younger children loved it! Considering it is a movie set in the midst of WW1, I think they did a great job sheltering younger audiences from the horrors of war while telling the endearing true story of Rin Tin Tin.Our dog enjoyed it, too!

Thoroughly enjoyable, Finding Rin Tin Tin served a small story in a big helping. Big movie production qualities showed throughout the film set in World War I. Perhaps best of all, this tale brings a forgotten story to the forefront. From the time Rinty was found and saved by Lee Duncun (played convincingly by Tyler Jensen) to where he becomes the best-loved dog ever in Hollywood (sorry, Lassie), one is captured by his daring-do in times of peril and the warmth of his personality.

This movie is lightly based on the true story of Rin Tin Tin. Some facts were changed, but it does give one a good idea of the history of Rin Tin Tin. And if you want to know factual history, read Susan Orlean's book, "Rin Tin Tin: The Life and the Legend." This is a pleasant family film and I liked it very much.

This is superb story coupled with comical moments about America's first loved canine star. Recommend this film for all ages.

This is a good film if viewed in the context of a movie designed for children. The staged backdrops and the caricture-like characters would be more believable to children than to most adults.The story line is fine, with the small exception that Rin Tin Tin seems to have been born excellently-trained and extraordinarily intelligent. I can accept the extraordinarily intelligent part.Any assumption that this movie accurately depicts the real origin of Rin Tin Tin could lead the viewer to serious disappointment.

Good movie.

what a nice family movie!
