UnowPriceless hyped garbage

Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

latinotoons A wonderfully scripted film: engaging, entertaining deadpan, and not the least bit disrespectful, it exhibits the inherent contradictions in war and empire-building--wait, we don't call it that anymore...Brad Pitt is a charismatic powerhouse in his role as the Glennimal.

someguymarcus With such a great cast, I expected a great movie. Well, have I been wrong.The movie concept was unique, that's for sure. Following a general during operations in Afghanistan could make for a great movie, if properly performed. Unfortunately, War Machine failed to do so. Little to no emotion was used. Every single one of the characters had a very, very curious personality, turning the movie into a freak show right away. At the 5-minute mark I assumed the movie to be a comedy. Yet, after not seeing a single comical seen for thirty minutes, I was confused as to what the purpose of the movie was. For a movie about a war, there was little to no action. General McMaho is portrayed as a quirky, freaky type of person, while at the same time acting as a true hero. It was obvious that the director wanted the viewer to have some mixed feelings, but what he got are confused ones.In short| A waste of budget, of talent and of my time.

abdullahkesgin-296-834167 don't believe all those negative commentsthey have gone to their theatre to see a "war" movie, but this is not shallow head rambo they wanted. this is self questioning which we all need to embrace, we the people of the worldone of the best performances of Brad Pitt BUT Tilda Swinton and Ben Kingsley were unbelievable good. it was İmpossible to tell they were actors. both Tilda and Ben were there to save the soul of the movie, they didn't act, they were living the events that were being told. Tilda 's was one of the best performances (if not the best) in her carrier. overall a surprisingly honest movie to teach us how to question our decisions. the scene chaplin prayed blewed my mind. as it courageously showed how israel's politics became America's religionafter the movie people were saying there happened nothing, no action, no gore, no explosion. they missed all the point. DECİSİONS, FEELİNGS, QUESTİONİNG happened as they should be.a must see movie for the ones who hasn't lost their thinking ability

dbrayshaw Gen. Glen McMahon (Brad Pitt) is a lifer who is sent to Afghanistan to fix the problem. Those who put him in that position want him to do nothing more than to get American soldiers out of that brutal environment, to save lives, and get them home.But because Glen is an extremely gung-ho conservative patriot who still believes American intervention is able to provide for these Afghani poor-- foreigners who really don't want any part of US intervention, barbarity, interference and imperialism, nor the promise of household conveniences -- he insists the country can be fixed, and that he's the man to do it. How? By insisting a coalition of govts. send an additional 40,000 soldiers to help him gain control of the least populated area of that nation, a location void of substance and consequence. Prior generals sent there to bring peace failed, to Glen's mind, and he knows exactly where to start to rid the country of insurgents.At first it doesn't look like the General will be getting his increased number of troops, but when it comes to light by an interview the General gives to an American TV magazine, that he has had only one short conversation with the President after four years, President Obama concedes, allowing more American soldiers entry into Afghanistan. He's also promised a face-to-face conversation with the President, but instead is made to pose for pictures to make it appear he's had talks with him. It's all a farce.None of this would have taken place in the first place if the entire political system was not fraught with the most intense incompetence. The President is good at only one thing: putting patches on problems at any cost, without regard for any true vision or purpose. It's all about maintaining power and money to him.There is nothing supportive about any cogs in this broken network of pretentious, flawed and profoundly unqualified managers. They will turn on one another in a blink and don't care who is thrown under the bus just as long as they stay in power.
