This film really made me sad. I was so sad for the dog , he really suffered for 10 hole years just for he’s owner . In every day he was waiting for his owner, but after 10 years he finally was free.

I like the way you ended your comment!

1. The difference between “hole” and “whole”
2. he’s owner = his owner

I drowned in my own tears while watching this movie. I have to admit that I never cried this hard over a movie in my whole entire life. It was really beautiful and Hachi was really cute. Also, I admired professor’s personality and his love for Hachi and animals.

[Dr. Mohammad Hossein Hariri Asl]

Well-written and flawless!
I was also so dramatically touched by the movie that I could not watch it more than twice for fear that I would burst into tears again.

[PARNIAN HUSH]

It was really heart touching. The love between Hachi and professor was so remarkable and special. The way that they completed each other and never letting the other one alone. It was so sad how Hachi waited for nine years at the same spot. I loved him. I really hope they finally have gotten together somewhere.
