Warfare Ratings & Reviews
- COCO14 mars 2025One of the most intense movies I’ve watched all year. A visceral 90-minute war drama that drops you behind enemy lines in the middle of the gory action. The silence throughout the first 15-minutes alone is enough to build up some dramatic tension that kept me at the edge of my seat throughout. It’s incredibly immersive and raw with its approach. There’s no score but the sound design is absolutely insane, watch it in the loudest theater possible.
- Chris C11 april 2025Intense. 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.
- RipLinesMan20 april 2025Warfare and Event Horizon (1997) both begin with missions — controlled, tactical, professional — and end with men undone by the environments that devour them. One is grounded in the chaos of 2006 Ramadi, the other drifts in the black void of space. But both ask the same question: what happens when the mission becomes survival, and survival isn’t guaranteed? Warfare unfolds in real time, as a Navy SEAL team takes over a building and finds themselves pinned down and cut off. Will Poulter brings raw tension as Erik, the Officer in Charge losing grip by the minute. Joseph Quinn gives Sam a layered weariness, quietly powerful in the film’s most harrowing moments. Cosmo Jarvis as Elliott Miller is visceral and vulnerable — the kind of performance that says everything with almost no dialogue. Charles Melton, Michael Gandolfini, and Finn Bennett add weight and realism to a cast that feels as battered and bruised as the setting demands. In Event Horizon, Laurence Fishburne’s Captain Miller is a man built for order — a leader who watches his training dissolve into fear. Sam Neill’s Dr. Weir descends into madness with elegance, becoming something more dangerous than the ship itself. Kathleen Quinlan’s Peters, Jason Isaacs’ D.J., and Richard T. Jones’ Cooper each face their own reckoning as reality fractures around them. It’s not the void that breaks them — it’s what they brought with them. Both films hinge on the collapse of structure. Orders become pleas. Extraction becomes fantasy. And what remains is silence, injury, and the unsettling knowledge that not everyone who lives gets out clean. Warfare ends with a dust-covered retreat. Event Horizon ends in psychological ruin. But both leave the same imprint: something happened to these men that no report could ever explain.
- Mikey Smith5 maj 2025The craziest, purest, and most raw war movie I’ve ever seen. No big story, no main character just a bunch of dudes fighting together to stay alive. I really loved this approach. It took the Hollywood emotional and cliche war movie tropes and threw them out the window. It’s all about the soldiers in that building for an hour and a half. The sound design, set design, and wardrobe was all outstanding. It all felt lived in and authentic. The acting was phenomenal. Nothing too flashy, just I don’t know, it felt real! Also almost sh*t my pants when that IED went off. Great film. 4/5.
- BarfEater8 april 2026Not a bad movie, fairly predictable and the action sequences are pretty outlandish, but enjoyable nonetheless.
- Steven Parker6 april 2026Kept me engaged all the way through the 90 min runtime, one of the better war films!
- ahwoo17 april 2025I don't think this film was made to be enjoyed but 'experienced'...
- Berlin.8 maj 2025Best modern day war film ive seen.
- Oʂɯαʅԃσ Rσყҽƚƚ7 maj 2025Went into this expecting a military movie like those that get rolled out on Netflix periodically, however this is a huge step above. The fact it's a true story too also adds so much to the events shown. The filmmakers go out to put you in the middle of the action. It's a very intense movie that does an amazing job of making you feel the tension in the situation. Performances keep you locked in but the real star of the show is the sound. From the gunfire to explosions you feel every hit. The 'Show of force' they use NEEDS to be heard to be believed.
- DavidBunnyDad23 mars 2026Very well-shot and engaging war film. Really puts you in there with the unit, even if the moral allegiances are tricky in a war in which we were arguably not the good guys.
- Shoel Palli8 mars 2026Outstanding and hard hitting
- Aaron Embry7 maj 2025Made my butt feel so good🦍🥀💔
- brian.ho9322 februari 2026People say it's the most accurate depiction of war, but I disagree. It's an accurate depiction of a battle, but there are many films with a lot more to say about war. Not a big Alex Garland fan and this didn't change my mind. Better suited as a short film, but there's no market for that.
- royalcopter10 februari 2026I get that it's an account of something real. But there is no plot or point or context. It feels like you're watching a really long scene in a movie and missing 95% of the rest of the movie. Like you walked in to the theater missing the beginning because you were late and passed out before the end.
- Bobu2 februari 2026Raw. Not epic, raw.
