Many pointed out similarities between both films. ‘The dog breaking out of the glass window’ and ‘the puppy causing trouble inside the owner’s place’– are the scenes that caught netizens’ attention.
Here’s the video:
Different genres
Just because there is a dog and a puppy mentioned in the film, it doesn’t make films the same. Togo is about a man and his relationship with the dogs and sledding, whereas, 777 Charlie is more about a man with boring energy and how a dog brings a meaningful life to him, both are totally different. There are plenty of movies in Hollywood with the same plot.
Togo is a story set in the winter of 1925 of champion dogsled trainer Leonhard Seppala and his lead sled dog, Togo. Jointly, they undertake an adventure across the dangerous terrain of Alaska to transport medicine to a small town.
This is how netizens reacted:
777charlie's shooting had already begun before the release of Togo
