No tail to wag here

Sgt Stubby is a stilted animated feature, based on a true story, that falls between two stools. It won’t appeal to the younger brigade because of its subject matter - World War I - and it won’t attract adult viewers.

With World War I looming, Robert Conroy (voice by Logan Lerman), a young Army private, adopts a stray, stump-tailed terrier. Conroy names his new friend Stubby.

French soldier Gaston Baptiste (Gérard Depardieu) befriends the duo and accompanies them along their epic journey through harsh conditions and incredible acts of courage.
