Muzzle

I must say that I absolutely loved this movie.

It was very heartbreaking and as a canine lover, just shows the true love between a dog and their human.

I love the interactions between the dog and owner and how it just shows that there are no bad animals, just bad owners.

I think it sends a very good message to the public. And should be embraced and shared. My dog watched it with me and she got very sad.

Don't know why some bad reviews.

An absolute wonderful heartfelt caring movie. I cannot fault it at all.

I will encourage anyone who loves animals to take the time and watch this gem. You will never be the same.

I feel like you have to have some sort of connection to dogs at the very least to comprehend the reason behind plot. Bonus if you're LE or a MWD Handler. These dogs are technically equipment, but they're so much more. They're a lifeline. Jake (Aaron Eckhart) has a military background and an LE job with a very expensive piece of equipment for a partner, multiple actually. (Ace and Sox/Socks) Right off from the start you get an insight to how he leans on this dog; he has full blown conversations while on patrol. (Any *loving* dog parent can tell you, we all have full blown convos with our dog. Sometimes even talking back to ourselves as the dog. LOL)

The fact the dogs in this story line were taken and turned into weapons for the bad (versus the greater good) is the heartbreaking part. The dogs are mere pawns. Jake is having none of it.

I don't quite grasp the negative reviews of this film. Was it a blockbuster? No. Did it keep my attention? Absolutely. (Which is no easy feat.) This is worth a rewatch down the line as well.

Overall, great movie. Not a 10, but great nonetheless.

Had I heard about this 2023 crime thriller titled "Muzzle" from writers Carlyle Eubank and John Stalberg Jr. Prior to sitting down to watch it? No. But I figured that the movie might be worth a shot, since it had Aaron Eckhart and Stephen Lang on the cast list. Plus, the fact that it was a movie that I hadn't already seen, also helped to make me sit down to watch it.

The storyline in "Muzzle", as written by Carlyle Eubank and John Stalberg Jr., was a pretty straightforward one. Ultimately then the movie came off as being a rather generic crime thriller. So the writers didn't really manage to accomplish a whole lot with the script and storyline. A shame, because there certainly was potential for something here.

The acting performances in "Muzzle" were good, and Aaron Eckhart does carry the movie well enough in the leading role. It wasn't a movie that boasted a whole lot of familiar faces on the cast list. In fact, I was only familiar with Aaron Eckhart and Stephen Lang.

For a crime thriller, then the movie was not particularly interesting or thrilling. And that made for a somewhat bland and mediocre viewing experience. And while I did manage to finish the movie, I can honestly say that I was only mildly entertained. This is hardly a movie that warrants more than a single viewing.

My rating of director John Stalberg Jr.'s 2023 crime thriller "Muzzle" lands on a bland five out of ten stars.

I have never reviewed a film before, but felt compelled to do so after giving this a watch.

I saw the previews and was excited to sit down and watch...unfortunately, the best part of the movie was the trailer. Eckhart did his best with what he had to work with, but it there were so many forced scenes it was distracting. Beyond that, while the story is pretty linear, scene to scene seems to leave out a lot of information in regards to character development and development of friendships when seemingly there was none.

This is definitely a watch it once film. In the hands of a capable director and producer this could have been excellent.

Ignore the bad reviews. This is a very good movie with good acting. Aaron Eckhart plays the role perfectly. It shows the horrible conditions in Los Angeles and the vast homeless and drug use.

This is definitely one of the best K-9 / military dog movies out there. It shows how dangerous their job is and how good they are at it, especially with the fetanayl crisis that China is importing into the USA now.

This is just a straight-forward movie, without all of the nonsense hollywood is trying to feed down our throats nowadays. There have been few movies this year better than this one. I highly recommend.
