From Academy Award®-nominated director Lasse Hallström (2000, The Cider House Rules) comes HACHI: A DOG’S TALE, a film based on one of the most treasured and heartwarming true stories ever told. Golden Globe winner Richard Gere (2002, Best Actor in a Musical or Comedy, Chicago) stars as Professor Parker Wilson, a distinguished scholar who discovers a lost Akita puppy on his way home from work. Despite initial objections from Wilson’s wife, Cate (Academy Award® nominee Joan Allen – 2000, Best Actress, The Contender), Hachi endears himself into the Wilson family and grows to be Parker's loyal companion. As their bond grows deeper, a beautiful relationship unfolds embodying the true spirit of family and loyalty, while inspiring the hearts of an entire town.

Hachi: A Dog's Tale (Blu-ray Disc, 2010)
Forget about MARLEY AND ME. HACHI is a more emotional, honest, and altogether more poignant movie about the relationship between a man who adopts a young Akita pup and the bond that develops that between them. It is sad, but in a good way, and even though it has a G rating, it's a more powerful movie than MARLEY AND ME, which had some objectionable adult content and a melodramatic, saccharine script. HACHI is superior to it in terms of its filmmaking and central story, a credit to director Lasse Hallstrom (CHOCOLAT) who has made some wonderful movies and adds yet another to his resume here. Richard Gere is sensitive and wonderful, the Rhode Island location shooting and the low-key script all combine to create a fabulous film suitable for all ages. Don't miss it -- and be prepared not only to have some kleenexes on-hand, but also to do some research into the "real" Hachi once it's over, as this is based on a legendary true story that happened in Japan in the 1920s. Outstanding!Read full review

A touching story of love and loyalty
A heart warming and heart breaking story of canine loyalty and the effect it has on all the people who witness it. And the story is all the more moving because it is based on a true story. Richard Gere finds a lost puppy and brings him home. Over the next few years the dog becomes an important part of the family, walking Gere to the train station each morning, and meeting him each evening. When Gere suddenly dies, Hachi waits for the rest of his life. The story of Hachi's loyalty soon spreads and he is made the subject of a newspaper article. It would have been very easy to go overboard with sentimentality on a story like this. Instead, the director let's the story unfold on its own. He makes no attempt to make Hachi more than what he is: a loyal and loving dog who sacrifices his home and comfort to wait for his master who never returns. The people in the story are realistic and fully human, each viewing the life of Hachi from their own place in the tale. Hachi serves as a reminder of, and living connection to their lost friend. Richard Gere is funny and charming, Joan Allen is warm and loving. Their relationship to each other reflected in their relationship to Hachi. WARNING: The end of this movie will make all but the most heartless dog-hater cry. Not a movie for children due to it's slow pace and sad ending, but a beautiful tale lovingly told.Read full review

My Hachi Blu-ray Review
this movie based on adaptation of true story happened in Japan, story about the dog Hachiko, which the statue at the shibuya station, a story about an akita dog, that a dog can be really loyal to the master, and wait every 5 pm in front of the station to wait the master to arrived home from work, even the master has passed away, the dog keep come at the same time for 9 years Pro: + if you love dog, you will love this story Cons: - PQ and AQ not excellent but okay - the story kind of jumping, i'd like if the movie tell more about hachi when its still a puppie Bottom Line: if you purchase this to see and test capability of your home theater you may try to get other tittle, if you love dog get this one, but still i prefer marley and me, but this have a plus point because based on true storyRead full review

Terrific Movie
This is based on a true story that happened in Japan in the 1920s. If you have a dog in your family and if you consider him/her to be a faithful companion you should see this movie. It is a story that is unbelievable until you see it. It was filmed in Rhode Island and now they have built a statue of Hachi at the railroad station in Woonsocket. Makes you want to love your dog even more.
