Rating: 5 stars
Summary: An execllent, real life, movie that the family can watch
Review: I have been to Edinburgh Scotland, the scenes in the film can be easily seen today. The streets and castle are still the same. The story of Bobby is alive and well, if you take a bus tour of the city, the driver will point out the grave and monument of Bobby and his master. This is a good movie for all ages.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great movie
Review: I watched this movie as a child and thought it was one of the sweetest Disney ever made. The tale of a little dog who comes to his master's grave no matter who tries to stop him. In the end the whole village of Greyfriar loves him and adopts him as their own. I loved watching the battle of wills between the restaurant owner and the graveyard caretaker who each thought the "wee dog" should be his. But Bobby belonged only to his dead master in the graveyard. After Bobby died he was buried in the graveyard alongside his master, a rare honor for a little dog.

The only reason I gave the video 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the mono soundtrack. I stronly prefer stereo and would really like to see this movie released on DVD or even VCD.

Summary: among disney's best animal films
Review: Originally released in 1961, Greyfriars Bobby is a very tender and beautifull film. It really is right up there with old yeller, and other disney classics. Set in Scotland, the sets are lavish, the production values strong. Performances by Donald Crisp and Laurence Naismith are involving. I saw it recently for the first time in 30 years, since it was broadcast on the disneyland tv show many years ago. I was as equally captivated by it as I was when I was a boy. It isnt overly sentimental as some may think, but it is quite touching. A real classic.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Forget me not
Review: This film has to rate among the classic's of tear-jerkers,even the hardest heart would summit to this movie, The story of a dog's love for his master, even in grief he was there at the end and there is a message for us all there, but the whole film was so real and Donald Crisp played the perfect part, but like it was in real life this movie hit home the value of real love never has the tears flowed over a movie like this, children and adults will love this, It has everything a policeman as hard as nails, the children and adults who were motionless at Bobby's devotion and courage to defy all,and to show his love even in death.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: TENDER, SIMPLE AND ENDEARING
Review: THIS TALE OF A FAITHFUL DOG AND IT'S SHEPHERD MASTER IS ONE THAT HAS BEEN BEAUTIFULLY HANDLED BY DISNEY. IT BRINGS TEARS AND LAUGHTER BUT MOST OF ALL IT SHOWS HOW THE SIMPLE LOVE OF A FAITHFUL ANIMAL CAN BRING PEOPLE TOGETHER, EVEN IN THE MOST DIFICULT CIRCUMSTANCES. ENJOY, THEY DON'T MAKE THEM LIKE THIS ANYMORE
