“White Fang” (*** out of four) was a sharp and lean animated remake of Jack London’s classic about the title half-breed wolf who searches for his father who has gone missing during the Gold Rush and is taken in by a crooked owner (voice of Paul Giamatti) and then by a kindly marshall and his wife (Nick Offerman and Rashida Jones). First-rate animation is beautifully stylized and drawn and is matched by an intelligent script by Serge Frydman and and Phillipe Lioret. Fine fare for kids and fans of Jack London’s book or the 1991 original with Ethan Hawke.
