I grew up in the mid to late 80's with,'The Dog Who Stopped The War,' playing in the Christmas-time and the film means a lot to me. I bought it on DVD the first chance I got in the early 2000's. When I first heard they were doing an animated version of the film I figured it would be botched like most legacy properties are today. I skipped watching it and mainly forgot about it. On a whim I gave it a watch the other day and I must say I was genuinely amazed at what a great job they did in updating the story from both an animation and a generational standpoint. For the most part, it reminded me of growing up with TDWSTW and how much I loved that film as a young kid while bringing it's own take on the story. Highly recommended for anyone with kids, especially during the holidays. The original is still the best but this one holds it's own.
