Add a CommentEnjoyable based on a true story
Such a wonderful tale of a dog's devotion to his master. A little sad at the end but well worth watching.
Throughout the first half of this film, I wondered why so many people thought it was great...I wasn't very impressed. Then the plot turns and Hachi melts your heart. I still cannot believe how much I cried throughout the 2nd half. Very very sweet story, what makes it so compelling is that it is based on a true story. More info found here (spoiler alert): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hachiko
One of the few movies that actually made me really cry!
Great movie!!
