Warfare, Alex Garland's follow-up to last year Civil War, team him with Iraq war veteran Ray Mendoza, his military advisor on Civil War, to tell the story of a f**ked up Navy Seals mission in 2006's Ramadi, Iraq. It's the grittiest battle of that war and this is a small vignette of an isolated team stuck in the chaos. The film plays in real time !
Tough, gritty, realistic, treated as a documentary, Warfare is a standalone piece of cinema, on the footsteps of Black Hawk Down and The Hurt Locker. Also it had 1/3 of their budgets.
No music on 90 minutes of carnage and chaos, just an end credits song by Low ("Dancing and Blood", from 2018. Fantastic sound design from Glenn Freemantle (Oscar for Gravity).
To be played Loud !!!!
4 out of 5, 8 out of 10 !!!
