FBI agent Carol Blue was unwilling to take local help in the case of the kidnapping of little Zoe Hendricks, but ex-cop Chris Milos' private investigation bureau proves just too good. His dog handler, Brenna Shaw, and her Alsatian, Brie, find the kidnapper holding Zoe and dropping the kid in the water on purpose so he can escape. They soon conclude it's not a ransom case but more personal, are contacted under the Biblical name Gideon 'judge', and get caught up in his macabre, vindictive games and gruesome logic…
After reading other reviews, I do want to say that I understand the training was unrealistic BUT this was a thriller presented by Animal Planet. It wasn't a documentary on real life search and rescue dog handling, it was fictional. If I had been looking for knowledge on how search and rescue dogs were trained then I would have looked for educational videos such as a documentary. Though I wasn't, which is why I don't think the lack of precise knowledge in this movie is awful.
Now as for what I actually thought of the movie. I think the story line kept you on the edge without making it too action packed cheesy. I actually enjoyed each character. Brenna and Blue both needed to come out of their shell it seemed, I felt their acting appeared a little forced in the beginning. But AFTER only a couple scenes with them their characters really took off. I liked that most of the main characters were included rather equally. It gave it the "teamwork" type atmosphere to the case. I honestly would watch it again and would watch a sequel if there was ever one.
