    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The box office failure of this and the equally expensive Saanko esitellä: Joe Black (1998) led to the resignation of then Universal head Casey Silver.
    • Goofs
      The dog listed as the Pit Bull is actually a Bull Terrier. Pit Bulls look quite different, without the distinctive sloping muzzle of the Bull Terrier.
    • Quotes

      Babe: You're very kind, but...

      The Pitbull: No, no, I'm anything but kind. In fact, I have a professional obligation to be malicious.

      Babe: Then you should change jobs.

    • Crazy credits
      One of the singing mice thanks the audience for staying through the credits.
    • Alternate versions
      The scene where Ferdinand lands at the Gun Club is removed from some TV showings. The film cuts from him landing in daylight to his perching, out of breath, on top of a tall building after dark.

    This pig should've stayed at home...

    Talk about a major disappointment! First time George Miller has ever made a dog. From Road Warrior and Dead Calm to Lorenzo's Oil and the original Babe, this guy has turned everything to gold. Nothing lasts forever. The only thing this film managed to show is that animals can be as ugly as humans. Gene Siskel actually picked this as one of the 10 best films of the year.Thumps down...
