While “War” may be a duly formulaic feel-gooder at heart, it also soft-pedals the more potentially heavy-handed emotional beats to pleasing effect. Read full review

The kind of movie the world needs right now: inspirational, feel-good and with family being the core value that drives it.

This film was fun and clean. Finally, Hollywood is making something that's not about itself and features some true American virtue and bravery.
