War for the Pla...
Very Good 83 Points 2017

War is Hell — an equation that the concluding episode of Planet of the Apes hammers home relentlessly. Both sides of the war for Earth, aka the Planet of the Apes, have understandable reasons to kill The Other.

Their war is most assuredly hell, a legitimate, even perfectly justifiable hell…

War Machine
Very Good 17 Points 2017

Brad Pitt stars in this unique combination of wartime comedy and drama. Although the critics panned the film, I loved the comedic look at Obama’s wartime politics and hope that a charismatic general can solve a failed foreign policy. This isn’t just a political comedy thank goodness. Pitt was gr…

War, Inc.
OK 17 Points 2007

A mostly ineffective satire on the commercialization of war, this movie follows the tabasco drinking Brand Hauser’s (John Cusack) journey to the fictional Turaqistan to assasinate “Omar Sharif” while under cover as a trade show producer. The film has lots of chuckle producing over the top moment…

Warrior
Great 84 Points 2011

MMA gets its 15 minutes of movie fame in Warrior, reason enough for mixed-martial arts fans to revere it. For the rest of us? Reason to avoid it. Most movie fans in Silicon Valley apparently fall in the latter camp, judging from the near empty Camera 7 theater on opening night.

Pity, beca…

OK 71 Points 2011

Half tortured romance, half wild circus tale, Water for Elephants half succeeds as a movie. A pair of unmemorable leads and a bumpy story drag it down. Some accomplished acting, a charismatic elephant named Rosie and the debauched magic of the circus make it worth watching.

We Are Marshall
Really Great 66 Points 2006

Arguably the best football movie ever, We Are Marshall is about much more than sports. Don’t shy away because 75 people – including dozens of collegiate football players – died in the horrific plane crash that forms its centerpiece. The movie is about what led up to the tragedy and mostly abo…

We Were Soldiers
Good 83 Points 2002

Admirable and interesting, this retelling of the first major battle of the Vietnam War nonetheless can’t escape the overall drag of that war’s outcome, and in fact the similar outcome of the Battle of Ia Drang depicted in the movie.

Still, the …
