"It’s too bad the film doesn’t provide a better sense of what makes the Belgian Malinois so uniquely suited to the battlefield..."

Variety"Despite the overplaying, Max gets its job done..."

The Washington Post
The Washington Post"Yakin opts for bullets, explosions and blood vengeance when handcuffs and perp walks would do the job. Not that "Max" has any clear or coherent sense of mission."
—
The New York Times
The New York Times"Far too gung-ho about playing up the pup’s heroism and self-sacrifice to give it much time to develop."
—
The Dissolve
The Dissolve"A genial if somewhat old-fashioned tale that's too clunky to transcend its genre(s) but effective enough within its own limited emotional range."
—
Screen Daily
Screen Daily"The screenplay muddles its emotional core with a clunky cross between old-fashioned Hardy Boys mystery and a far-fetched weapons-trafficking subplot."
