Eight Below
Eight Below ★★½ 2006 (PG)
Disney goes to the dogs with appropriately tail-wagging results. Jerry (Walker), a guide at the U.S. National Science Research Base in Antarctica, is deeply devoted to his eight beautiful sled dogs. Ambitious scientist McClaren (Greenwood) gets them involved in a risky mission that results in evacuation for the humans—but not the dogs—due to early winter storms. While the dogs scavenge to survive, Jerry tries to organize a rescue trip to save his best friends. Shot in Canada, Norway, and Greenland. 120m/C DVD, Blu-ray Disc .
