Um Pestinha na Fazenda

Smitty is the exception to all the movies from the 2010s decade that try to be with emotional references to animals!!! A "boy and his dog" addition to your digital purchase streaming library!

This is an Underated movie that was simple and thoughtful for the whole family. A good example of what a good wholesome movies supposed to look like. It was trying to think of a reason to deduct a star but couldn't.

Even though I am not big fan of dogs but the only good thing in this movie was the Dog.

"Smitty" is the typical kind of movie that fits perfectly in the general formula of movies. It is a family movie that combines the elements of tales about animals and coming-of-age themes. It is a movie that plays it safe but still manages to provide viewers with a pleasant experience and a lesson to learn.

Brandon Tyler Russell plays Ben, a 13-year-old teenager who under certain circumstances has to move in with his grandfather whom he has never met before in his life. In the countryside, amid a small town, farms and beautiful landscapes, among a number of interesting characters, Ben begins to learn about the past of the relationship between his grandfather and his mother, and comes to understand people and himself better.

He later meets his dog, adopted from a lost or abandoned animal shelter, and also Smitty, a mid-aged store-owner who befriends him and whose guitar appeals to him. Relationships between characters are clearly shown, and storytelling techniques are simple but effective. Its simplicity along with the plot pull the audience into the feelings in the tale, which include family relationships, human-animal relationships, growing up and a taste of life in the farms.

Overall, it is a great film for a whole family to sit down and watch on a weekend. The story is simple, moving and carries certain messages.

One of the most heartwarming, feel-good movies. It's so good because of the positive spirit in the movie. It's also one of the most underrated movies. Teaches you a lot of life-lessons. Commendable direction. The film ends with a beautiful message. A must watch for drama fans.
