If you loved the book or the original adaptation, then these The Call of The Wild movie quotes will certainly peak your interest!
With The Call of The Wild being released on digital and Disney Movies Anywhere, I thought it was the perfect time to share my favorite quotes from the film.
Unlike other films, many of the quotes are straight from the narrator – which can actually be very appealing. The Call of the Wild follows a dog on his journey through abuse, hard work, and absolute adventure.
This film may appeal to many audiences but viewer discretion should be advised, as there are very sensitive scenes. I recommend reading Week99er's The Call of the Wild Movie Review if you're considering watching the film with children.

Adapted from the beloved literary classic, THE CALL OF THE WILD vividly brings to the screen the story of Buck, a big-hearted dog whose blissful domestic life is turned upside down when he is suddenly uprooted from his California home and transplanted to the exotic wilds of the Yukon during the Gold Rush of the 1890s. As the newest rookie on a mail delivery dog sled team–and later its leader–Buck experiences the adventure of a lifetime, ultimately finding his true place in the world and becoming his own master.
As a live-action/animation hybrid, THE CALL OF THE WILD employs cutting edge visual effects and animation technology in order to render the animals in the film as fully photorealistic–and emotionally authentic–characters.
