Co-director and star Channing Tatum does a nice job with "Dog". It is a great looking movie filled with nice performances. The story does take a few unexpected turns but it never loses focus. The movie has a nice pace and packs more emotion than one might expect. Also, the dog is great. "Dog" is a well done, emotional movie. Honorable mention: the soundtrack. (I saw "Dog" at Regal, Westbury, NY.)
