Superstar John Travolta (Pulp Fiction, Get Shorty, Broken Arrow) delivers an electrifying performance as a small-time hood battling the mob - and his own inner demons - in this gritty, gripping emotional thriller. Forced into double-crossing his ruthless mobster brother-in-law in Chicago, down-and-out hustler and struggling single father Bobby Allen (Travolta) escapes to California with his young daughter and her newfound best friend: a huge, fiercely loyal Doberman she rescued from the dogfight arena. Hunted down and cornered by the infuriated mafia thugs, Bobby now has two choices. Cut and run - or make a desperate last-stand fight for his family, his honor and his life.

Customer Reviews

captivatiing and heart wrenching
This movie just shows the dedication that dogs have for people they love. They will go to extreme lenghts to protect the people that they love and who have shown them love. Unconditonal love is what we get from our pets, this movie will have you rooting for the dog and praying for the people he loves. It doesn't start out very fast paced but once you get involved you can't leave the screen til you find out what happens. Dobies are our dog of choice so this was especially meaningful to us. The little girl befriends this dog and in turn he becomes her hero and protector. Wonderful story, I love to watch it over and over again!!!! Other recommendations would be "The Doberman Gang" "Those Amazing Dobermans" and the "Daring Dobermans".

A Beautiful Story for Any Age
This movie was a complete surprise to me. It's beautifully and realistically filmed, with highly credible acting by everyone, including the beautiful dobie..I've never seen a movie that gave me a better sense of perspective from the dog's view. I feel fortunate to have a copy of it and find it's a wonderful 'pick me up' on a blue day..The movie conveys a powerful message of hope under seemingly hopeless circumstances. I would recommend "Eyes of an Angel" to everyone.

Very Moving
I saw this movie several years ago on HBO, but have never been able to find it to purchase. Fantastic story, but the best character in the story is the Dobe. As one who has had at least two for the last 20 years, they are that loyal. They look mean, but for "their people" they are big softies, and they will get to you. Early Travolta, but good.
