Go To

1* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: Ted's hypothermia-induced dream, which features talking dogs, his mother baking cookies, [[MsFanservice Barb in a bikini]]...and Music/MichaelBolton, for whatever reason.
2* {{Narm}}: The dogs and their human expressions throughout the film. Especially so as the film was ''not'' about talking dogs as the trailers suggested, this only happening in a single dream sequence.
3* SpecialEffectsFailure: PlayedForLaughs during Ted's nightmare where the wailing baby clearly has Creator/CubaGoodingJr's face on it.
4* TearJerker:
5** Go on. Try not to cry as Amelia and Barb stare out into the Alaskan wilderness, waiting for Ted to return, as the reporter does a voiceover about the lantern that won't come down until the last racer is safely home....... ouch.
6** Extinguishing the Arctic Flame...
7** The brief argument Ted and Barb have about Lucy "pawning off" her kid. Despite knowing she put him up for adoption, Barb starts chastising him for badmouthing who, to her, was a great friend, but Ted, embittered for never having any contact with her, doesn't back down. This moment shows how some people, no matter how greatly they can be viewed by most people, can still end up in the bad books of a few others, or vice versa.
8** Ted removing Demon’s sore tooth and then the dog running up in to Ted’s arms to lick him (his way of apologizing to Ted for antagonizing him and for removing the tooth) while Ted pets and snuggles him in return DEFINITELY invoked a lot of watery eyes.
9** [[spoiler:Thunder Jack]] admitting that he did love Lucy, but how she and him were independent spirits and couldn't ever be together.
10* UnintentionalUncannyValley: For some, the human-like expressions of the dogs is sure to be creepy.
