Max does for war movies what Lassie did for…. kids stuck down a well.
Following an incident out in Iraqistan, or something, Max is suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder, and things take a turn for the worse when his owner, Kyle Wincott (Robbie Amell), is killed in the war.
Max is due to be put down because he has trouble listening to anyone else. Until… he meets Justin (Josh Wiggins), Kyle’s brother. Justin adopts, and saves, Max. Then, both of their lives would never be the same again. Awwwww!
Yes, it’s all-American tosh, and on top of this, the geek boy gets the hot girl, Carmen (Mia Xitlali). And I won’t be rushing to see this film – also starring
Thomas Haden Church, Lauren Graham and Luke Kleintank – when it’s released in the UK on August 7th.
