Reviews
★★★★★ Together, Garland's virtuosity and Mendoza's first-hand experience create a masterful technical achievement that is, more important, emotionally harrowing.
Elegant and brutal at once.
As a visceral exercise, “Warfare” is an impressive piece of work. Skillfully directed and written with the authenticity of Mendoza’s memories.
“Warfare” is a viscerally impressive work. Your body feels it.
