Surprisingly unsentimental tale of a marine dog handler, Megan Leavey and her dog, Rex, in Iraq. Although based on a true story, there's a certain amount of dramatic license. But this aside, it's told in an unflashy way and takes its time to build so that when the action kicks in, it feels suitably shocking and earned.Mara is convincing as the lead and despite the UK title, it's more her film than the dog's.
Verdict: Woman's best friend
