Homeward Bound II – Lost in San Francisco
Description
Your favorite trio of talking animals is back in this
action-packed Disney adventure that’ll have the whole family bursting with
excitement and laughter! Michael J. Fox, Sally Field, and Ralph Waite supply
the voices of Chance, the American bulldog; Sassy, the Himalayan cat; and
Shadow, the golden retriever — and Sinbad speaks for their newfound canine
friend, Riley — in this critically acclaimed sequel to Disney’s now-classic
HOMEWARD BOUND: THE INCREDIBLE JOURNEY. When the pets accidentally get
separated from their vacationing owners, Chance, Shadow, and Sassy navigate
the mean streets of San Francisco, trying to find their home across the Golden
Gate Bridge. But the road is blocked by a series of hazards, both man and
beast. It’s another incredible journey for three very brave, very lovable
pets, in a thrilling, funny adventure that’s ‘bound to please’ (New York Post)
the entire family!|The movie, shot entirely on location in and around
Vancouver, British Columbia, and San Francisco, features an animal cast of 40
canine and 10 feline performers. Four dogs were actually used to portray
Chance and Shadow, though the lead roles went to hounds Petey and
Clovis.|Chance gets a girlfriend, Delilah, in this sequel to HOMEWARD BOUND,
and a tune in honor of his romance, “Dog On A Date.”|Movie critic Roger Ebert
quipped Chance “seems to have learned the English language from old Jughead
comic books, and says things like, ‘Dogs rule, cats drool’ and ‘OK, pal —
you’re toast!’ “|Six different Himalayan cats were used to portray Sassy.
This movie follows the unwritten law of sequels: bring back the
same characters and put them in similar jeopardy with slightly tweaked
circumstances. Instead of a cross-country journey, this time the pet trio must
get from the San Francisco airport across the Golden Gate Bridge to their
suburban home. Michael J. Fox and Sally Field return as the voices of Chance
the bulldog and Sassy the cat, with Ralph Waite replacing the late Don Ameche
as the elderly golden retriever. Their journey features dogfights, house
fires, an epic battle with a pair of petnappers, and a love affair for Chance
with a stray from the other side of the bridge (Carla Gugino). Sinbad voices
another dog who guides them through the mean streets of the city by the bay,
and Robert Hays stars as the father, but, frankly, that hardly matters. What
does is the animals’ banter, and they’re funny. (Ages 3 and up) –Kimberly
