Buffalo Kids

Orphaned siblings Tom and Mary travel to New York to reunite with their Uncle Niall. When their uncle doesn't show up to fetch them from the harbour, they decide to journey to him. A Stray dog befriends them at the harbour, and they decide to look after it until they get to their uncle, and name it Sparky.

With no money for the train, they manage to sneak onto the train with a group of orphans. Among them is Nick, a young disabled boy who is wheelchair bound and unable to speak. Despite his disability, Mary decides to be his friend.

Also on board, are bandits, with the leader serving as the film's main antagonist. When Tom, Mary and Nick get off the train while it is being refueled and the train leaves without them, their amazing adventure begins. Mary's optimism is uplifting and inspirational. And Sparky was so cute!

'Buffalo Kids' is absolutely beautiful with stunning animation, and characters I cared about. There's action, danger, humour, drama and even a bit of suspense in the mix. It might not always be entirely believable, but also keep in mind the film is set in the 19th Century when life was very different. It definitely is a lot of fun, and very entertaining. It is the perfect film for the entire family. This was really special, and I loved every minute.
