    As a person who dislikes dog related films, I loved this.

    Togo is the first win for Disney+ (in terms of movies) Togo is a legitimately great film and such a surprise. It is filled with a lot of heart and backed up by a great performance from Dafoe.

    Willem Dafoe is really great here. Delivering one of his better movies. His relationship with the dogs is done in such a really nice and heartfelt way. That's what makes it better than most dog films. It's a really enjoyable film and by the end it is really touching. That's thanks to them using a brilliant music choice of "in the nature of daylight" as well as the bond and development you get between the Dafoe and Togo.

    I don't really have any major flaws with it. I think it's a great story especially for not being familiar with the true story. The visual effects aren't always top notch but that's understandable due to being a disney original and a not a cinema film.

    Overall it's a really solid film, and genuinely the best dog film, we might have ever had, it might not be overly sad but it has heart and thats more than I can ask for coming from a dog film.

    He is not a sled dog, he's the lead dog

    So let me guess if you have ever been a pet owner, I'm sorry, a dog owner and watch this movie you will probably cry like in every 10 minutes, maybe five

    Amazing story!

    What an amazing film/story of this remarkable dog named Togo. I watched this film with my 11 year old daughter and we were both struggling to keep the tears 😭 from falling. At the end my daughter was crying cause it was so touching. A REAL movie to watch!

    Willem Dafoe and a bunch of adorable sled dogs star in this heartwarming, action packed new movie based on a true story... The sequences involving Togo as a mischievous pup are pure magic.

    Excellent movie

    Great story and a true story to commemorate the real hero dog Togo. I wonder if they will change the statue in New York to reflect the dog that saved the day. Well worth watching

    • Trivia
      Unfortunately, the original serum package only contained enough serum for 30 doses and there were already 28 cases of children and adults stricken with Diptheria, and new cases were coming in. A week later, on the 8th of February, nine of the original mushers together with twelve others had to do the entire relay all over again. Neither Balto, Kaasen, Seppala nor Togo was involved in the second run. The second relay took 36 hours more to complete.
    • Goofs
      In the film, Togo and Balto both have blue eyes, and so do many other huskies in the film. Some huskies also have heterochromia. The real Togo had brown eyes, as did the real Balto, and the Siberian Husky didn't develop its blue eyes until around the 1940s.

      Leonhard Seppala: Come, my pups!

      Leonhard Seppala: Are we to fear ice now?

      Leonhard Seppala: He, which hath no stomach in this fight, let him depart.

      Leonhard Seppala: His passport shall be made, we would not die in that dog's company!

      Leonhard Seppala: Old dogs forget, but he who would remember with advantages what feats he did that day.

      Leonhard Seppala: Then shall our names, familiar in his mouth as household words-Seppala, the driver.

      Leonhard Seppala: Sally, Molly, and Reverend Togo, great Togo in lead!
