[A] compelling metaphor for a woman finding independence and empowerment, it dramatizes a primal emotional relationship that proves heartbreaking and triumphant.

An uplifting story about companionship, devotion, and the lifelong friendship that develops from a mutual respect between a human and her animal.

Rex is war lite, but as a film about trust, it hits the mark, staying just the right side of schmaltz.

If you're looking for a good cry, Megan Leavey gets the job done, I suppose. But it's a bit like a wet kiss from a puppy.

Entertainment Weekly
3.5 stars out of 4 -- Based on a true story, MEGAN LEAVEY is that rare breed: a war movie that actually shows something new about war, a sub-culture within a familiar sub-culture, the world of the military's K-9 units.

This film is good for dog lovers and for anyone who knows anyone in the military.
