Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaWhen the pandemic hit, and production was halted for nine months, Channing Tatum and the trainers got ample time to work with each dog to get them ready for the movie. The result was a powerful bonding experience and ended with three of the trainers deciding to adopt the dogs they worked with.
- GoofsWhen Briggs is leaving Los Angeles, the highway sign has distances in kilometers not miles.
- Quotes
Jackson Briggs: That's MY unicorn!
- Crazy creditsAt the very end of the credits, the standard legal statement "This motion picture is protected by the copyright laws of the United States of America"...etc. appears. The last sentence is "Our love for dogs is real".

Featured review
A Journey of Searching & Healing....
7/10
This film officially releases on Friday, but my local Cineplex had an early showing that I took advantage of.
I must say that this film actually exceeded my expectations. This trailer didn't come across as very emotional, but it turned out to be quite the opposite. There were a lot of offsetting funny and serious parts throughout with just enough emotional tension to finish the film off as expected.
I liked Channing Tatum here because he was able to express those funny and serious tones with his interactions coming mainly between himself and the dog, Lulu. The few interactions he had with people were spot on. Some military humour was thrown in there that not everyone found tasteful, but I found hilarious.
Although it had a military vibe to it. I don't think one would have to support the military to enjoy this one. If you care about dogs, and especially dogs finding their place in one's life and vice-versa, then I would definitely recommend giving this one a try.
I thought it was longer, but 90 minutes was perfect timing for the film. Although some of the fluff pieces felt just that. Fluff. I would've liked to have seen more silent, emotional moments such as flashbacks to show background to the trauma, but overall the film had good pacing and the story was told in its structured setting.
Overall, truly a good film that I came out of emotionally touched and happy to have seen. Good acting by Channing Tatum and the story was relatable and enjoyable.
Until next time.... Enjoy the show!
