Video Review – Warfare is an almost perfect “Anti-War” film

March 31, 2025 by EJ Moreno

EJ Moreno with a video review of Warfare…

You have no idea what to expect when you see a studio like A24 and a filmmaker like Alex Garland attached to a war film. Thankfully, Warfare surprises you with a brutal look at a dangerous mission overseas, all told from the memory of those included.

Ray Mendoza leads that charge, stepping into a co-director position to bring this personal story to life. Join critic EJ Moreno for his thoughts on the film and the minor tweaks it needed to become a bona fide modern war classic.

Check out the review below, and be sure to follow us on YouTube for more reviews, exclusive interviews, and other video content…

Warfare comes from filmmakers Ray Mendoza and Alex Garland. It stars D’Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai, Will Poulter, Joseph Quinn, Charles Melton, Cosmo Jarvis, Kit Connor, Noah Centineo, Taylor John Smith, Michael Gandolfini, Finn Bennett, Henry Zaga, Adain Bradley, Alex Brockdorff, Evan Holtzman, Aaron Mackenzie, Joe Macaulay, Laurie Duncan, Jake Lampert, Aaron Deakins, Heider Ali, Sima Pollitt, Nathan Altai, Aso Sherabayani, Amira Dutton, and Inbal Amram.

Warfare embeds audiences with a platoon of American Navy SEALs in the home of an Iraqi family, overwatching the movement of US forces through insurgent territory. A visceral, boots-on-the-ground story of modern warfare told like never before: in real time and based on the memory of the people who lived it.
