Sgt. Stubby: An Unlikely Hero's reviews
Media reviews
Variety
"The film is sufficiently intelligent and entertaining to engage most grown-ups and, no kidding, fascinate history buffs."
New York Times
This may be the first cartoon in history designed for this particular overlap of audiences: military buffs and the very, very young.
The Washington Post
"Given its pedigree, Sgt. Stubby takes fewer liberties than some fact-based war movies. Bolstered by an irresistible protagonist, the tear-jerking script by Lanni and Mike Stokey makes up for shortcomings in animation."
The Hollywood Reporter
"Stubby hardly shies away from the tough realities of what was known as the War to End All Wars, and it feels both proficiently documented and generally credible, even if it?s hard to believe that a dog did everything you see happening on screen."
The A.V. Club
Though little about the technical skill of Sgt. Stubby: An American Hero brings to mind Spielberg, it?s hard not to think of "War Horse."
