Intense. Visceral. Unflinching. All the adjectives you've heard about this film are true. Far from your typical Hollywood "recruitment" war film, 'Warfare' is a sobering, heart-pounding look at the effects of modern, well, warfare. The first act is almost eerily quiet, serving as a stark counterpoint to the chaotic battle set to begin. Once it starts, though, there is no pause in what unfolds in the largely real-time depiction. Ray Mendoza and Alex Garland have created a truly incredible movie based on the memories of the soldiers who were present for this battle. This film deserves to be seen on the biggest screen—and loudest theater—you can find.
