On the surface, Dog is a Turner &amp; Hooch rip-off about an army ranger who has to escort his dead friend\u2019s dog across the country to be put down. However, the number of layers Tatum manages to fold in are incredible. There\u2019s comedy, and a surprisingly clear-eyed take on mental health in the military.
