I would probably have liked it a little more. But I know the original story and I live with Japanese dogs and they don't act like that. But movies have to be more dramatic than reality, I suppose.

If you liked Hachi, you'd probably love Tale Of Mari And The Three Puppies

I'm pretty sure it can be found on Veoh and maybe even YouTube by now. It's in Japanese with English subtitles.
