The Legend of Lobo

Not enough there for a good film. <em>'The Legend of Lobo'</em> features some cute animals and interesting situations, but with its 67 minute run time and lack of any substantial characters it's hard to get into it in film terms; like <em>'Nikki, Wild Dog of the North'</em>, it is too close to a documentary; though, to be fair, this is better than that. The usual animal welfare concerns appear, but it does seem improved; at least compared to the aforementioned production from 1961. Rex Allen makes for a satisfactory narrator, at least. The music is decent, too. As noted, there are adorable shots of animals but there simply isn't enough to make it a film worth watching in my eyes.
