      I prefer the story of the loyal dog Hachiko

      Originally, the tasting party said that it was very touching and asked everyone to prepare tissues, which aroused my great expectation. I thought it would be a good movie like the story of Hachiko. I cried several times. When the heroine Megan wanted to retire and adopt Rex, but when Rex was asked to continue serving, Megan did not ask to continue to serve together. Since Rex is regarded as a partner and family, then he will accompany him on the battlefield! Although I also know that this is...

      A bond that transcends love

      Text/Dream Book of Poetry

      The American theme rendering with the Iraq war as the background, although "War Dog Rex" is full of routines, the director has not made any breakthroughs and innovations in this biographical film, but from the perspective of young women. Cut in, the friendship between people and dogs brewed in the bland and restrained emotions, the precious simplicity and purity, has become the heart-warming core of the film.

      Based on the real experience of American...

      love Ta love her

      Only true stories and true emotions can resonate from the bottom of your heart.

      the plot is good

      Adapted from real events, the film tells the story of the heroine and her comrade-in-arms, the search dog Rex. The storyline is actually quite simple. The heroine becomes a special female soldier and contacts the dog and gets out of the predicament in her heart, but this process does not Not deliberately sensational, but the process of people and dogs from unfamiliar vigilance to familiarity and dependence. As a war dog, Kes and the heroine went from mutual confrontation to mutual trust. In...

      touching

      The female protagonist's infectious power is very powerful. Every time he frowns, sad and wants to cry, I can't help but cry The meaning is a little less, but it is very touching. The most important thing is that at the end of the film, the heroine adjusts her attitude with the help of her father and faces the difficulties in life positively. Although he does everything he can, nothing can ensure the successful adoption of Rex. But she still did it. The power of gathering moved the country....

      It tells the touching story of persistent female soldiers and EOD dogs in battlefield EOD and adoption after the war. It is very real and simple. It revealed the huge impact of the aftermath of the war on people, as well as on EOD dogs, many of which had to be euthanized. At present, only the US military service is really facing death threats. Other countries should be much better, and the aftermath of the war will be much...

      In fact, it was Rex that rekindled Megan's hopeless life, and the bond was not only between dogs and people, but also between people and dogs. The filming is flat and straightforward, and the look is average, but the true story is touching. 2019.3.26...

    Evaluation action

    "Megan Leavey" is a film directed by a female director. The film vividly demonstrates the female-led purpose of the creative team. The film seriously lacks the tension that a narrative film should have. The first 25 minutes of the film kicks off, showing the dull military life through montage shots, and it narrates the plot very plainly. The fundamental reason is the script of the film. The script of the film makes the plot and story...
