Slant Magazine -
The film’s avoidance of cruel Gold Rush realities is more than made up for by its spirited kineticism and by its deepening of the man-dog bond that forms the heart of London’s story.

Variety -
For all the wholesome cheesiness of much of the film, you’d have to have a pretty hard heart not to be touched by it.

The Guardian -
The result is a bit corny, a bit cheesy and you might feel self-conscious going, “Aww …” at creatures that are not real dogs but laptop fabrications. But it’s a robust and old-fashioned entertainment with some real storytelling bite.

Washington Post -
Stands out for its earnest effort to entertain without commenting on itself or the modern world.

The Hollywood Reporter -
The results are visually disorienting, to say the least. Although Notary and the special effects team do as good a job as technology allows, the expressive Buck never quite looks real. And you keep expecting him and the rest of the animals to burst into song.
