Dog attempts and mostly does a solid job walking a perilous line, being honest about and sympathetic to the concerns and inside jokes of veterans without licking boots or justifying endless war. Read full review

While “Dog” is often funny, it’s not a comedy. Though it’s often sad, it’s not a tragedy either. Instead, it’s a sensitive, engaging, realistic look at what happens when a soldier’s toughest battle starts when they come home. Read full review

The beauty of a film such as Dog is that it is one of many, omnipresent in its ordinariness and commonplace in its undertaking – a brain holiday, if you will. It’s another notch in the filmography of a crowd-pleasing A-lister, another run-of-the-mill movie to emote with when we can’t feel much else. Read full review

Dog is a bumpy, unpredictable ride because that’s what our heroes are on, but it’s all delivered with a gentle touch and authentic feeling that assure us that Briggs and Lulu are heading in the right direction. Read full review

Ultimately it does work, but “Dog” is a movie that is trying to do quite a bit, and perhaps bites off a little more than it can reasonably handle in 90 minutes. Read full review

More predictable than shaggy, Dog is more interesting than the standard man-mutt buddy movie but still never really pulls the heartstrings. What it lacks in urgency and emotion, Tatum more than makes up for in movie-star wattage. Read full review

The tonal imbalance and the mismanaged themes make for an extremely uncomfortable watch. However, Dog might find an audience, one that is not so bothered by the lack of depth, and who will tolerate the surface-level insight into the issues it barely touches upon. Read full review

Movie isn’t perfect but all the important parts are. As someone that loves dogs, well all animals, and has been through some very hard times in life, this really hit home. Very emotional.

Channing Tatum does an if not extraordinary, quite presentable job on his first assignment as an actor-director. The idea of the road trip and that of the difficult coexistence with a dog is nothing new under the sun but it makes the price of the ticket well deserved.

A trying watch in that its final act is simply too potent for you to ignore how much it shoulders the averageness of the 80 minutes that preceded it. The contrast therein is simply too lopsided to be forgiven. Further, there's not much in "Dog" that you'll find yourself surprised by. All theA trying watch in that its final act is simply too potent for you to ignore how much it shoulders the averageness of the 80 minutes that preceded it. The contrast therein is simply too lopsided to be forgiven. Further, there's not much in "Dog" that you'll find yourself surprised by. All the road trip tropes are accounted for and with the addition of the titular element — and her deceased, servicemember owner, to boot — the emotional manipulation is not exactly being applied in an oblique manner here. Imagine, if you will, a blend between "Rain Man" and "Turner & Hooch." That's basically what this is. Still, those last 20 minutes or so are just so damn effective. Yes, yes, they play on tried and true human tendencies, but I'll be damned if I don't feel revived by the idea of a happy dog. It's nothing to write home about as a film, sure, but the pathos within is undeniable when utilized.… Expand

An extremely dull and uneventful hour and twenty minutes before some okay dog payoff scenes.
