The true life story of a young marine corporal whose unique discipline and bond with her military combat dog saved many lives during their deployment in Iraq. When she is assigned to clean up the K9 unit after a disciplinary hearing, Leavey identifies with a particularly aggressive dog, Rex, and is given the chance to train him. Over the course of their service, Megan and Rex completed more than 100 missions until an IED explosion injures them, putting their fate in jeopardy. (Bleecker Street Media)

I was expecting maybe Nicholas Winton to make an appearance at the end. Otherwise, despite the effort and fairly capable direction and dramaturgy, Megan Leavey was a losing war beforehand because the problem is the premise. The very heroine doesn't have that many film-worthy situations or relationships behind her, and she herself isn't particularly interesting. The only theme here is the role of the army dog-handlers and bringing out their abilities. But a simple heroic/biographical method based on one person isn't enough for that, and the film can't do any better.

When Kate Mara and her dog got to Iraq, I totally thought that they made a re-make of The Hurt Locker, only with a female lead and a dog instead of a pyrotechnic. But they cut it off at the most action-packed moment and the whole story returns back to the USA, which isn’t entirely detrimental. Even then, there was something to watch.

A well-presented story about love for a dog. It's not unnecessarily melodramatic, and it doesn't aim to manipulate you needlessly, although you might wonder if it's emotionally exaggerated in places in terms of how the main character behaves. But then you realize that it is possible to love someone other than just another person. Kate Mara is very pleasant here.
