Warfare

  • Title: Warfare
  • IMDb: link

Crafted from the memories of the soldiers who lived through events, Warfare documents a Navy SEAL platoon deployed at night into a two-story home in the Anbar Province. Narratively weak, the film doesn’t attempt to put events of the film into any historical context, nor does it offer any explanation as to why this location is of any strategic importance. Instead we’re thrown into the situation with the (mostly interchangeable and underdeveloped) soldiers who live through the lulls and extreme action that make up modern warfare as they attempt to survive and escape a situation that quickly grows untenable.
