Intense but uneven historical drama showcases teamwork.

Common Sense Media
Although earnest to a fault and certainly fulfilling its goal of being family-friendly entertainment, The Great Alaskan Race ultimately proves less exciting and not nearly as adorable as Balto, the 1995 animated film inspired by the same events.

Hollywood Reporter
Unfortunately, it turns out that very least is still too much to ask for from this handsome but hokey drama, which barely seems to notice its canine players amid a focus on one-dimensional humans.

The historic serum run combined dogs, sports and life-or-death stakes, a seemingly perfect setup for cinematic adaptation that "The Great Alaskan Race" fumbles.

It is certainly not a bad movie, but it is not particularly memorable either.

Rating: 2/4 --
Historically accurate, if "whitewashed," and dramatically lacking account of the famous sled dog rescue of Nome, Alaska from a diptheria epidemic.

Too often, "The Great Alaskan Race" is as much a slog as anything the sled dogs have to navigate.

Product Description:
Writer and director Brian Presley's family-friendly drama is based on the heroic 1925 serum run to Nome, Alaska. A group of intrepid mushers and their trusted pack of sled dogs race against time and across 700 miles of treacherous terrain to deliver a batch of life-saving diphtheria antitoxins to the dying children of an isolated dock town.
