Not as flag-wavingly cheesy as it might have been - but that doesn't make it a good film.

Top critics, in their words
Rotten
Max is an absurdly violent PG-rated movie in which kids and dogs are repeatedly in peril.

Yakin doesn't condescend to his audience, and infuses his plot with a surprisingly ambitious and revealing commentary about the experience of war.
Manori Ravindran, Globe and Mail
Rotten
It's like they invited the Coen brothers - or maybe Quentin Tarantino - to script a few scenes of a "Dora the Explorer" episode.

Yakin executes the touching material with the expected serviceability.
