Plots(1)
Max, a precision-trained military dog, serves on the front lines in Afghanistan until he loses his handler, U.S. Marine Kyle Wincott (Robbie Amell), in the line of duty. Traumatized, Max is sent stateside, where the only human he can connect with is Kyle's brother, Justin (Josh Wiggins). The pair strikes up an unlikely friendship as they unravel a mystery that may deliver more excitement - and danger - than they bargained for. (Roadshow Entertainment)

An inoffensive American family movie with a dog, where the dog has the final word with God being just below him, and with a bit of American patriotism and military pride thrown in the mix.

Agreement with the opinion that this is a film that is greatly harmed by being made as a family film and not as a gritty drama, which it deserves much more. However, it manages reasonably well due to its pleasant characters, and when you finish watching the film, you won't feel like you've seen something so bad.
