I love the dog, but that's where the love ends. The concept is silly and goes against basic survival skills. The main character who is a blind war vet from an Afghanistan road side bomb is lost in the wilderness after his chartered boat goes off course and crashes after the captain has a medical issue. Apparently the war vet forgot basic survival skills and decides to abandon the boat and to start walking blindly with the dog - who is not a seeing eye dog and the duo attempts to walk the rest of the way home.
Then his two bratty children decide they can find their lost blind father in the forest faster than search and rescue can, so they go looking for him.
The blind man wastes his flares by shooting at a cat he can't even see. When he finally hears an aircraft he has no flares because he wasted them.
All in all, this movie was a great example of what NOT to do if you become lost in the wilderness.
It's a family movie and that's fine, but don't make movies that portray characters as being beyond stupid. I think a war vet would know, stay with the crashed boat which was out in the open for the fastest rescue.
This movie was so bad I stopped watching at the half way point.
