Slow but a very cute story. I enjoyed the well-developed lesson in the story.

Because of Winn-Dixie was my favorite book as a child. The movie is very well done and stays true to the book. Still love it as an adult.

I never read the book, but I’m sure this is a case where it is better. Robb as Opal is the highlight bringing joy to an otherwise dull film.

Hasn’t aged the best but still harmless and sweet. Peak Dakota fanning stardom where she was in everything. Just doesn’t stand out

Feel-good movie for those who like smiling dogs, but mostly boring.
