HEART OF THE BEAST
The film
After a harrowing plane crash, Special Forces veteran James Belmont and his combat dog, Odin, find themselves stranded deep in the Alaskan wilderness. Together, they are forced into a brutal fight for survival against the elements.
A lot of times movies with a dog as one of the main characters can be cheesy, but this completely works. Gritty and grounded, just a solid survival movie. Odin’s a great movie dog.
