Disclaimer: don’t let this movie motivate you to get a Malinois without doing your research first.

I am glad all the Malinois owners in the comments have taken it upon themselves to educate. Please don't get a Malinois unless you are ready to be the owner the Mal needs you to be.

I medically retired from the army 8 years ago and have TBI from bomb blasts. As part my niece's 16th birthday date, she chose this film. I had not heard of it and was caught completely unprepared for it's moments of realism. The struggle to stay in the army and failing, the fight to get back to physical health, even some of the defiant dialogue felt straight out of my own experience. Very nearly threw up during the first scene of the film because that is how I still occasionally wake up. Unsure if the writers or actors conducted research into TBI and veterans who have it, but the end product hit very close to home. I have an 85lb rescue Doberman that was unbelievably difficult to live with in the beginning. Now we have been together 6 years and he has literally saved my life twice. Wonderful film, thank you to everyone involved in making it.

I feel like Channing Tatum is a lot smarter and deeper than people give him credit for and this movie is a testament to that. He co-directed this movie as well as playing the lead and I’m glad that he got this chance to show everyone that he’s more than just a heartthrob.

I’m definitely gonna cry in this on the one, my dog was the same way and all he needed was patience, dedication and love and now he’s the happiness obedient dog to me.

It’s good to see Channing Tatum in a film again, look forward to this.

My husband in the photo here with me is my belated husband he served in the army and the first time i saw this trailer on tv i fell in love i not been to a movie in 3 years but my heart wants me to see this one thank you i watch this again and cried

I’m a dog walker and I worked with this Malinois and it took me a MONTH just to gain his trust to be next to him. He’s such a good boy. Before his owners got him he was abused in his previous home. He gets scared of people coming behind him and men too. But takes lots of work to go into training with them. I absolutely love Atticus. I’m seeing this movie already have tickets for next Thursday.

Please do NOT get a Malinois unless you have experience working with them. These are working dogs, not labradoodles.

Same goes for the German shepherd, I can see alot people mixing them up who dont have experience with dogs. Please do your research people before getting a German shepherd or Belgian Malinois, they need alot of work and patience. These are the best dogs in the world, theres a reason why cops and the army use them. It kills me when I see these in my local area for sale at the age of 1 -3 years old or up for adoption.

This was so much better than I expected! Possibly Channing Tatum’s best performance yet. There was enough mixture of emotion, comedy, action, and break throughs. Loved it! ❤️

I cried at the end of the movie, it reminded me of my old dog and there was a moment that really hit home for me near the end.

Took my dog on a cross country fairwell tour of the US. We drove the lower 48 contiguous states plus DC, in one trip. We drove 15,060 miles. We met some amazing people, saw and smelled new things. Doc was hyper like the movie dog in his younger years, but during the trip he was a sweet old man. Miss you so much Doc. Love you. RIP. 🐕 💔 😢 ❤️❤️❤️

As an owner of a basset hound can I please say don’t get one unless you’re prepared to spend hours watching it sleep on the sofa, lounge on the bed , get bored half way around a walk and need to be carried , or sit in front of the fridge waiting for you to open it. These dogs are hard work!!

Being a guy living with my buddy, I found this movie to be outstanding. Salute to the soldiers separated from their buddies...awesome movie

Just saw this movie and is so much more than I was expecting: good story, funny moments but so emotional. Channing was great! Really good movie. Thank you for your service!

This movie is a treat for animal lovers and our eyes (Channing Tatum ) 😍🥵

After Cow, Pig and Lamb, we bring to you our new masterpiece: Dog.

I love the scene of Lulu snatching the water bottle. Makes me laugh every time.

Why are 80% of the comments from people who tell me not to buy a malinois? I wasn't going to buy one... Can't we just appreciate the fact that this seems to be a movie with a touching story and no super heroes, feminism, minorities or other mainstream BS ... I wish they'd make more of these.

I rescued a similar dog 3 years ago. She hates everyone but me and a few others she tolerates after much training. We’ll be watching this one together.

So glad to see him back in action! Wasn’t even mad he took time off for his daughter ❤️

Usually don't watch movies for reasons. Watched this four times and was moved each time. Worth the watch!

We had a Belgian Malinios we adopted from the pound. He was about 1 1/2 yrs old. All ears and paws. My husband took him to a trainer once a week for a few months. He was the sweetest, most well-behaved dog I've ever had. After my husband passed, then I was the Alpha dog. It broke my heart when he died.

I lost my malinois last month …. After 13 years together and 8 years in service . HE WAS MY HERO . He saves my live two times . :(. I miss him every day

Don't go get one of these dogs after a movie without true commitment for long walks,daily exercise,training and a yard. I hate how many of them is sold and let down after a hit movie,not just them,any breed. Remember it's alive with needs and emotions, not a thing.

I just saw the movie and it was great! And not only showed the dedication of service dogs but the emotional toll of PTSD on humans and animals. I really enjoyed this movie and the storyline. I hope others will check it out. 🥰

This guys right here makes the most amazing movies ever. The lost city and this movie…. God…. Work of art, literally!

Worked with a former K9 handler in the military whose dog was blown up by IED. My friend was so wrecked emotionally he had to change jobs. God bless all our little good boys and girls

Thank you for all those who help rescue and / or have rescued animals🌸❣️

As someone who has experience with GSD & MaliGators, they are extreme high energy and they always need to be with you when you go to the bathroom, garage, shower, or lay on the couch. These are what we call Velcro dogs.

One of the few movies worth a trip to the theater. Right left or center I think we can all agree a D.O.G is one of our best gifts from G.O.D. Can’t wait to see a movie worth the time and money to see.

This movie looks awesome. The only problem I have with it is. People are going to run out and buy Belgian Shepard and then the shelters are going to be filled with them.

This year we have Pig, Lamb and now Dog. Maybe adding Cats too that was released back in 2019. Is the Animal Cinematic Universe (ACU) has just begun??? 😂

“Oh my god, I can see.” 😂😂😂 Also, the bit where the dog lies down on the pavement and refuses to budge… OMG. Brought back so many memories. My golden was the queen of this. And if you pulled on her harness, she’d put her two front paws through quick as a flash and she’d be free. Except she luckily never took off. I quickly learned to start walking in the opposite direction and she’d scramble to her feet. I’d walk quickly and then make a loop. That technique worked on every big dog I ever worked with except for one mastiff mix. When that 90-lb. boy refused to move, you weren’t going nowhere. 😂

This movie literally saved my life this is the realest most genuine thing I think I have ever said on social media lulu you’ve saved more lives than we can ever give you credit for we don’t deserve this inhumane species they only make us better

I bet you that the dog will be a kind of 'Marley', and in some point in the movie we all will cry. Anyways, my tears are ready.

Dog people: *sees title* Dog people: *inquisitive head tilt*

Just saw this movie and enjoyed it tremendously. Channing does a great job, and is in every single scene. Wasn't expecting that much, but was surprised by his excellent performance.

This is filmed near where I live and about a year ago I passed by the filming of this movie on the coast of north California and asked one of the guys on set and he said it was this movie! So stoked to see it

I cried watching this trailer and don't know why,I love dogs I guess that's why 😢never had more love from anything in life not even my parents,dogs love is unconditional 💯

This comments section, with dog owners who know what dogs really need, is fantastic. Thank you all.

This was one of the only movies that i ever cried to. I love it so much

Watched this movie last night with my husband. He got a kick out of me bawling my eyes out towards the end.. Military and animal movies always get me. Thank you to our men, women, and service animal for all they do and sacarfice I love and respect you all for what you given us all! An amazing movie a must see 👏♥️🙏

As someone with 2 mals, don't let a movie make you think you just hop into mal ownership with no experience. If you happen to end up with one, don't listen to the shock jockeys and "Cesar milans" who tell you your puppy needs an e collar or prong collar. It's exhausting at first but a well trained mal who's received positive reinforcement will be your best buddy. Click, treat, repeat- it's that simple.

It really shows how much drive and energy a Belgian Malinois has. They are amazinggg dogs but on my opinion they aren't for everyone. They need their physical, mental needs to be met just like every dog. This movie looks great ❤️❤️❤️

This story is wonderful. Overall this movie was well worth my time. The actors are awesome. There is a thread running through this story. That thread isn't what breed the dog is but the loyalty dogs overall give their owners as a gift. Once again, two main characters are fabulous actors.

Saw this last night. It's a fantastic movie. Any animal lover will cry but the ending is awesome.

Very wholesome. Tatum is my favorite actor

I run a German Shepherd and Belgian Malinois rescue - I've had 2 working Malinois. They are NOT family dogs unless you have immense experience AND a lifestyle that makes the dog the center (not a part) of your world. The number one reason we get Mals in our rescue is that people were unaware what they were getting in to. I now live with 2 Pitbulls and they are a piece of cake in comparison.

I love my malinois. Best dog ever! My family revolves around our dog. She has taught me so much from training her. Never had a dog like this before.

Saw this movie today and it was great!👍 Especially if you're a Veteran and a dog lover!!

Wow it's nice to see Tatum back! It's been awhile since his last film. I'm hoping they would make a 3rd sequel to Jump Street. I always loved watching 21 Jump Street part 1 & 2. This should be a good down to earth movie DOG.

Man they really called in their top creatives to title this film didn’t they

Ive got this kind of dog before but after 8 years he died of cancer. Strong, rough but very sweet dog

Definitely for fans of either Channing Tatum and/or dogs, this movie was very much an American road trip movie full of humour and adventure. It had a simple and endearing linear story of basically a damaged and traumatised dog and man who healed together. With that said the movie explored some deeper and more challenging themes in quite a nuanced way, I have seen many a Channing Tatum movie and here he did a fine job and really stepped up to the plate, I must say he always delivers! I must say that Channing must have spent the two years of lockdown locked in the gym and totally looks the part of an army ranger fresh from fighting the Taliban! Overall this was a very funny movie that gently established a relationship between man and man's best friend. The music was good, the cinematography great, the script compelling and the ending a joy.

Dog's act, exactly the way they are taught. Discipline and consistency is what correlates. Just like every other sentient being.

So I cried during the trailer 😩🥲 hopefully I’m not the only one lol.💁🏾‍♀️ I will most definitely be seeing this movie.🐶🍿🥰

I adopted a Malinois a year ago and she is so sweet. VERY PROTECTIVE but very sweet. When this movie is available on the tv I want to watch it with her and get her reaction🤣🤣 I just came back from watching it in the theater

Definitely cried, beautiful movie. Great performances.

My late father & I had a Malinois for almost 10 years. I named him Zeus. He was about 2 years old when we got him from the pound & had been shockingly mistreated! All he wanted was hugs, love & reassurance. Zeus was as intelligent a dog as we’d ever owned. Among those being a German Shepherd & an Australian Border Collie.

Looks like a beautiful film. Channing Tatum and Bill Burr, YES PLEASE!

This movie is actually based off elements of his experience with his dying dog.

Just watch this earlier and all I wanna do after the movie is go home and hug my puppers. This is a must watch movie

I legit was thinking this movie was another one of those talking dog movies, or ones that talk in their mind

I'm used to only seeing action movies in theaters but this actually looks really good

Just watched this. I laughed and I cried, i jumped with the dog when the shots were fired. I still wake up on the floor and dodge thunder. Those brave dogs feel everything we do!!

Rolling Stones's "Beast of burden" as the main soundtrack is definitely the right choice here!👍 It adds a cool vibe to this trailer 😎 and makes you want to watch this movie a bit more!

“Never give up on something that you can’t go a day without thinking about.”

The alternate tagline for the film on Blu Ray/DVD version: A man and his dog run through the physical training of real life as one seeks and the other fetches meaning in the quiet glow of the truest companionship they both will ever know.

Love when trailers show the entire movie and the best parts of it. It saves me a ton of money in the long run.

I once trained a basically wild husky. Felt so bad one time I did get bit. Thankfully he still got adopted. Sometimes you just gotta realize dogs are more scared of you then you are of them. They just need someone with love and patience.

I’m excited. This movie is what we all need.

I'll definitely be checking this film out!

This movie is so surprisingly good. I cried and laughed and haven’t felt I’ve watched a good movie like that in a long time. Even if you have no military connection if you have a heart this movie should hit you.

We don't do hugs 😂

🤣🤣🤣 "oh my god i can see" what a miracle 🤣

this is gonna be the " best feel-good movie of the year "

I loved this film! Cried so much at the ending!

I can’t watching this movie because I’m still sad for my dog of 11 years old passed away last year. Her name is Ladybug. She’s half German Shepherd half boxer. I really miss my dog so much. This movie make me remind my dog 😭

The biggest thing with these dogs is that they are highly social and that they need that social interaction for their intellect. I have a Malinois, he was a handful as a puppy. He would run through the house and then lay down in the floor so that I couldn't move him. He'd jump and pull the washing off the clothes line and run around the section with me chasing him. He'd pull the grates of the drains and the fence pales off. He slipped his collar while chained (so I could move cars through the open gate, he's only chained for a few minutes when absolutely needed). He ran out the open gate and down the road, with me running after him. He got distracted at a building site, so I was able to catch him, but with no collar I had to carry him, 40 kg of solid muscle, back up the street. I tried puppy school, but he was kicked out on his first day. Then I had an idea, I got a foxy puppy. Suddenly all of the extreme behaviors disappeared. He was still high energy, but now he had a constant friend for the long days when I was at work. Now he was not lonely. He still got kicked out of puppy school 2 more times - but no more clothes being ripped, no more fence pales being pulled off. He had a friend for the long and lonely days. I'd say they are active but more importantly they are very social (more so than my old rottie who seemed fine while I was at work) - the extreme behaviors were due to loneliness during the day - so make sure you have a solution for that.

The best dog breed is a rescue breed . Get one and be blessed with love and companionship for life . Seriously if you commit to a dog ( any dog ) it will commit to you with everything it had .

This movie was so emotional and heartwarming ❤️😢

Anyone else ♥love ♥dogs?

This was such a heartwarming movie. I had no idea! Go see it in the theater if you haven’t already 🍿

I’ve had GSD’s my whole life, recently just rescued a GSD and have worked with Mali’s in the military. I’m really happy to see people In The comments advising people not to get one if your not prepared to put in the work. They are super high drive and energy. Given the right training and commitment you’ll have an amazing dog one of the best but if you don’t you will end up with a nightmare of a dog one of the worst. I’m worried so many people will see this movie and go and get a Mali without knowing truly what they’re taking on. I foresee a lot of mali’s being unnecessarily being put in dog shelters or euthanised as a result of this movie 😞😞. If you don’t have the to time to train them as in proper obdience training you’ll be better off with a Lab or golden retriever, beautiful dogs and far more laid back. That being said I’ll be going to watch this movie opening weekend ☺️

Absolutely the best movie I've seen for a long,long time. I laughed, cried and a few other emotions. Tatam was fantastic and the dogs who played Lulu deserve a mention ( ZUZA , BRITTA and LANA 5. A great big THANK YOU to all the dogs and soldiers who put their lives on the line for wars that should never be. Come home safe. 🤗👍

this film was amazing, saw it on a sneak showing for valentine’s day, it stole our hearts, smile and my girlfriend’s tears

Imagine loving something so much that it upsets you this much to say goodbye .

The only love story I’ll be watching in February 🙂🤣🙏❤️

Directed by Reid Carolin and Channing Tatum, both on their directorial debuts. Nice work!

I have a Malinois and love her, but I completely understand the scene where Channing Tatum calls the dog a demon. Most people should NOT own a Malinois.

This is going to be BEAUTIFUL !!!!!

The best line i heard “Oh my g-god i can see”

Can we just give the dog some credit? That dog is a great actor too! 🤣

It's like a dodo story only filmed cinematically I'm gonna love it 😍

I feel the tears already

It's on prime video for anyone wanting to watch be aware it made me cry

‘Dog’ is a road trip (not exactly a ‘comedy road trip’) with a canine twist. Great acting, as always, from Channing Tatum and what a movie star Lulu is. This excellent movie is sensitive, thoughtful and inspiring. Thank you.

Channing with a dog! Ayyyy, Im falling inlove again and again
