So, 'Son of Lassie' is this intriguing sequel to the original, diving into a mix of action and adventure set against the backdrop of World War II in Norway. You've got Laddie, the titular pup, who’s got some big shoes to fill. The film captures a particular tone – a blend of bravery and the bond between human and dog, which is quite touching. The practical effects used for the stunts, especially Laddie’s daring escapades, really stand out for the time. The pacing ebbs and flows, keeping you engaged without rushing. The performances, especially from the dog actors, convey a lot of emotion. It's distinct for its wartime themes woven into a family-friendly narrative, not always easy to balance but they pull it off reasonably well.
