00:00:00.620 --> 00:00:04.360
Is Megan Leavey more of a feel-good tale or military drama?

00:00:07.180 --> 00:00:08.220
[explosion]

00:00:08.540 --> 00:00:11.400
Actually, it strikes a great balance of both.

00:00:11.440 --> 00:00:13.860
"You can't let your life fall apart over some dog."

00:00:13.860 --> 00:00:15.160
"That dog saved my life."

00:00:15.500 --> 00:00:20.180
This inspiring, fact-based story follows a
young Marine who forms an unbreakable bond

00:00:20.180 --> 00:00:21.640
with her bomb-sniffing dog.

00:00:21.640 --> 00:00:22.500
"Found something."

00:00:22.560 --> 00:00:23.760
"Good boy."

00:00:23.800 --> 00:00:29.480
War is central to this movie, so expect several tense scenes of combat, including explosions,

00:00:29.480 --> 00:00:31.760
injuries, and one sad death.

00:00:33.040 --> 00:00:37.580
There's also some swearing, the worst of it being the S-word and one F-bomb -- plus a

00:00:37.580 --> 00:00:40.930
fair bit of social drinking, sometimes to
excess.

00:00:40.930 --> 00:00:45.780
Iffy stuff aside, this drama serves up lots
of brave, disciplined characters and a strong

00:00:45.780 --> 00:00:48.880
message about the power of teamwork and communication.

00:00:48.880 --> 00:00:50.400
"Baby, all you got to do is fight."

00:00:51.240 --> 00:00:52.300
"And you know how to fight."

00:00:52.540 --> 00:00:58.800
