But Tatum had the much tougher job, trying to dis<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>ear into the skin of a battle-scarred ex-U.S. Army Ranger tasked with transporting Lulu across the Western United States while co-directing the project (with screenwriter and longtime producing partner Reid Carolin) at the same time.<\/p>\n<p>Like John Travolta and Sylvester Stallone before him, Tatum is not an actor of particularly wide range, but he knows what his audience wants, and in \u201cDog,\u201d he gives them more than they bargained for. That shouldn\u2019t come as much of a surprise to those won over by \u201cMagic Mike,\u201d the popular 2012 meat parade that Tatum and Carolin hatched together, tapping directly into the movie star\u2019s strengths: \u201cDog\u201d is a lowbrow but by no means lazy crowd-pleaser, one where the fun that Tatum and company took in making it translates directly to the pleasure we take in watching.<\/p>\n<p>On the surface, it looks like a familiar enough road movie: Back from Afghanistan, making submarine sandwiches for minimum wage somewhere in the Pacific Northwest, Jackson Briggs (Tatum) wants to redeploy, but a brain injury makes that impossible. Instead, he accepts the domestic assignment \u2014 a thankless errand, really \u2014 of transporting Lulu all the way to Arizona for the funeral of Jackson\u2019s old Ranger buddy Riley Rodriguez (Eric Urbiztondo), who helped train her. But this is no easy cross-country <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/trip-and-travel\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"10\" title=\"Trip &amp; Travel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">trip<\/a>, since both Briggs and Lulu are dealing with some pretty serious trauma from their time in the service, and it doesn\u2019t take much to trigger either of them.<\/p>\n<p>What results is closer to \u201cFirst Blood\u201d (the original Rambo movie) than \u201cTurner and Hooch,\u201d as Carolin\u2019s script confronts the impact of PTSD on Army veterans, human and canine alike. It\u2019s hardly a new subject, but it is an important one, and the team certainly could have bypassed it altogether and gone for a cuddlier approach. Instead, Tatum and Carolin use this easy-sell bonding exercise to focus on how those who serve the country are left to deal with the lingering wounds, both physical and psychological, on their own. As for the dogs who served alongside \u2014 now here\u2019s the part no one wants to hear \u2014 sometimes the damage is so great, there\u2019s no choice but to put them down.<\/p>\n<p>Briggs knows when he collects Lulu that their mission is a performative one: Rodriguez was uniquely bonded to the animal, and now his family expects to see this legendary \u201chero dog\u201d at his funeral. They don\u2019t want to be reminded that Lulu, like their son\/brother\/beloved, came back broken. (Rodriguez drove himself into a tree at 120 mph, Briggs learns, slow to accept what that must mean.) And they certainly don\u2019t want to learn that once Rodriguez is buried, the Army intends to euthanize the dog. That\u2019s an even bigger bummer for audiences, since, like Briggs, we spend an hour and a half falling in love with her. But if you think that Tatum (who gave Lulu the same name as his own recently deceased pooch) plans to follow this horse all the way to the glue factory, you\u2019ve underestimated his instincts as an entertainer.<\/p>\n<p>That self-awareness is clear from the opening scene, in which Tatum awakens, sweaty and shirtless, on the floor of his cabin, panting like a dog. Sure, Briggs\u2019 night terrors tell us something about the character, but mostly, they reassure us that Tatum \u2014 whose broad back, bulging pecs and discreetly flexed triceps are both his \u201cinstrument\u201d and his selling point \u2014 hasn\u2019t abandoned his hunk status, or else gotten too serious to deny audiences a show. Where once this industry was defined by great thespians, its top tier is now crowded with ex-soap stars and underwear models, in whose company Tatum is still right at home. (Funnily enough, Tatum\u2019s cutesy talking-to-dogs voice sounds a lot like Mark Wahlberg\u2019s singsongy talking-to-people voice.) Charisma comes easy to Tatum, and though Briggs is dealing with brain damage, there\u2019s more going on upstairs than there was for Jenko in \u201c21 Jump Street.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The least convincing aspect of \u201cDog,\u201d then, is the dog. Lulu is introduced like a deadly weapon with fur, and though her counterparts (Zuza mostly) rip the stuffing out of car seats and chase down a kaftan-wearing doctor in a San Francisco hotel, it\u2019s hard to believe that this particular \u201cMaligator\u201d is an actual threat. Instead, we\u2019re watching a trio of trained dogs play a trained dog, and they\/she seem to be doing precisely what they\u2019re told, even when said behavior catches Briggs by surprise \u2014 say, interrupting an \u201cepic\u201d threesome or bolting into the woods to locate an illegal pot farm.<\/p>\n<p>Animals may not be people, but they do have a complex psychology, and it\u2019s gratifying to see what could have been a one-dimensional buddy movie doing its best to convey the interior emotions of both parties. Turns out Tatum isn\u2019t half bad behind the camera either, even if it\u2019s tough to know how he and Carolin split the responsibility. They\u2019re easy to underestimate, but between this and \u201cMagic Mike,\u201d the pair have proven awfully savvy with their pet projects.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-tags \/\/ a-children-icon-bullet lrv-u-font-family-primary u-letter-spacing-012 lrv-u-line-height-large lrv-u-color-brand-primary\">\n<h2 id=\"optional-screen-reader\" class=\"lrv-a-screen-reader-only\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"optional_screen_reader\"><\/span>\n        optional screen reader  <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<nav class=\"o-nav  o-nav lrv-u-border-b-1 u-border-color-brand-secondary-40 lrv-u-border-t-1 lrv-u-text-align-center lrv-u-padding-b-025 u-padding-t-050@desktop u-padding-t-050@tablet u-padding-t-050@mobile-max lrv-u-margin-t-2 lrv-u-margin-b-2\" data-dropdown=\"\">\n<h4 id=\"\" class=\"o-nav__title lrv-u-color-black lrv-u-font-family-secondary o-nav__title a-content-ignore u-line-height-140 u-letter-spacing-0002\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Read_More_About\"><\/span>Read More About:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<\/nav>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p><script type=\"text\/plain\" class=\"optanon-category-C0004\">\n  !function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n    if (f.fbq) return;\n    n = f.fbq = function() {\n      n.callMethod ?\n          n.callMethod.apply(n, arguments) : n.queue.push(arguments);\n    };\n    if (!f._fbq) f._fbq = n;\n    n.push = n;\n    n.loaded = !0;\n    n.version = '2.0';\n    n.queue = [];\n    t = b.createElement(e);\n    t.async = !0;\n    t.src = v;\n    s = b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n    s.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s);\n  }(window, document, 'script',\n      'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n  fbq('init', '586935388485447');\n  fbq('init', '315552255725686');\n  fbq('track', 'PageView');\n<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
