It has all the conflict of a good night&rsquo;s sleep and at times is so slow you may wish to fast forward, but if you have the patience to endure, the full effect is heart rending. You will remember HACHI.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe movie opens with an Akita puppy being shipped from Japan to the United States. The puppy arrives in a crate at a commuter train station in a Northeastern US suburb. The dog crate falls off a cart and the puppy escapes, only to be found by Professor Parker Wilson (played by Richard Gere). The professor tries to find the puppy a home but winds up getting attached and keeping the dog.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe remarkable thing about this dog is that it learns to accompany his master to the commuter train station each morning, returns home, then comes back to the station just in time to meet his master. Much of the movie is a love story between a dog and his owner. The professor tries unsuccessfully to train Hachi to fetch a ball, but they both get blasted by a skunk. But, this is not some Beethoveen-the-dog style comedy. It can get a bit tiresome as the love between dog and master grows.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tWhat makes this movie worth seeing is the very long last act by the dog. Don&rsquo;t look for a daring rescue. Don&rsquo;t put down your money hoping for cute antics. Be prepared to see a dog show a city the meaning of loyalty.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tHACHI is based on a true story from the 1920&rsquo;s in Japan. It was made into a popular Japanese movie in 1987. This version ships the Akita puppy to the US and Americanizes the setting. What rings true about it is the loyalty possible in a dog.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\treview provided by: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.movieguide.org\/reviews\/hachi.html\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.movieguide.org\/reviews\/hachi.html<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NLDF Dinner and Movie 9\/6\/13 September 6th everyone is welcome!
