Snoopy, everybody's favorite pet beagle, goes off to visit an old friend from his past. Charlie Brown isn't the same person without him while he's away. He's distraught over his departure. We learn about Snoopy's origins and wonder whether he comes home to Charlie Brown or to his first owner. The film was made in the early seventies and is true Charles Schulz's vision.

I am a huge fan of Snoopy and the Peanuts Gang, I grew up with their specials and reading their comics.I was very young when I first saw Snoopy Come Home. I still recall all the emotions I felt when I watch it.Normally when you watch a film with Charlie Brown, Linus, Snoopy and all the Peanut gang you would expect to be given humor throughout however this time you get more. Snoopy Come Home really pulls at your heart and your soul for it emotional story and gives you a better appreciate for all those you love.The film does a superb job at getting to your emotions. This is one of the few films that made me cry it just really that powerful yet the film also has the humor we all know the gang for. Even now I still use the quotes "Go directly to jail Do not pass go do not collect 200 dollars Good Grief" and "Are you ready for a shock? He wasn't ready for a shock". I still cry when I see Snoopy's Farewell Party it is one of the most emotional scenes in any film it just really gets to you deep also listen to the song "It changes" that song really is a powerful tone. The animation in the film is very well done and it is a different shade that we are not normally to see with Peanut films The voice acting is very good as well. The music in the film is really powerful it helps tell the story of the film every piece of music tells the story it is one of the most powerful scores you can ever heard in a animation film it is that powerful. Snoopy Comes Home is one of those films that really gets at your heart and it will make you cry rather you're a child or adult the film just gets your emotions I give Snoopy Come Home an 10 out of 10

I love Snoopy, and I love all things Peanuts. After watching this movie for the first time in many years, I'm left wondering what happened to all the magic this time around. I have to assume that Schulz, Melendez, and everyone else involved were just going through a really rough time, because there's just no other way to account for the bad taste this movie leaves in my mouth.This being Peanuts, of course there's some good stuff. The beach and library scenes (especially Snoopy's reaction to 'The Bunnies') are small masterpieces. Snoopy and Woodstock's road trip is full of wonder, especially their adventures in sneaking into the hospital; the bit with the gurney and the elevator is great fun. Snoopy's farewell party and Charlie Brown's sad lamentation are truly heart-wrenching. And nobody proclaims "No Dogs Allowed" better than Thurl Ravenscroft (he of "You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch" fame).But Snoopy's mean-spirited encounters with Linus and Lucy early on, and his bitter feuding with Charlie Brown, are all really out of place. Sure, Snoopy is always independent and even a bit snotty sometimes, but he's never cruel. Neither are Linus or Charlie Brown, for that matter (Lucy's another story, but that's why we love her). Throw in Lila's shameless manipulation of Snoopy's feelings, and the ultimate lack of joy in Snoopy's return at the end, and you've got one cold movie.
