Lets start with what we were all nervous for, Jonah Hill - my god, does he nail this role. Humor, intelligence, and cunning all rolled into one. He drives this movie and gives every viewer something different. I took my partner, and she also enjoyed the movie, especially his performance.

This is a rags to riches 'true story' with some humor intertwined and Jonah Hills signature 'laugh' saw me laughing aloud multiple times.

I don't want to post spoilers, and I don't want to ruin your experience - hell that is what movies are for, watching and making your own informed decision. Just don't let some of these bad reviews deter you.… Expand

Fantastic movie which once again shows us how out of touch Hollywood critics are with film goers alike.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Synopsis: Two friends in their early 20s (Jonah Hill and Miles Teller) living in Miami Beach during the Iraq War exploit a little-known government initiative that allows small businesses to bid on U.S. Military contracts. Starting small, they begin raking in big money and are living the high life. But the pair gets in over their heads when they land a 300 million dollar deal to arm the Afghan Military—a deal that puts them in business with some very shady people, not the least of which turns out to be the U.S. Government.… Expand

I enjoy the movie very much. It is funny. The plot is really interesting. The filming style with narrator remind of fight club.
I would recommend this movie.
And I don't know and don't care why the 'professional' reviewers don't like it.

Актерский состав порадовал меня с трейлера, хорошая игра хороших актеров.
Не стоит идти на фильм если вы хотите посмотреть комедию, на фильм стоит идти ради отличнейшего сюжета!
Кино от создателей "Мальчишник в вегасе 1,2,3", этот фильм похож на мальчишник в вегасе, но мне он показался немного серьезней.

It was very entertaining. There's a lot of bro humor. Not something you would take the kids to, but definitely for teenagers 16 or older. Not something to take your date to.

It starred Tina Fey and the previews looked hilarious. This film has the same MO: the advance ads make it look like a rollicking comedy (after all, director Todd Phillips created the "Hangover" series), but the reality of the movie is much more somber. Jonah Hill and Miles Teller plays friends who end up as arms dealers to the US military. It starts out with some lighthearted fun (and Hill's arrogant asides), but as it progresses, the seriousness of their situation develops into a personal and political drama. As a result, this becomes an interesting true story about the foilables of our military system with a compelling performance by Teller.… Expand

The film is brash, infuriating, occasionally insane, and blissfully irreverent. And when coupled with the knowledge that all of this actually happened (for the most part), it makes the film that much more watchable in the end.… Expand

Ten years ago a similar film was made with Nicolas Cage in the lead called 'Lord of War'. This was based on the two youngsters who got into arm dealing, but many events were fictionalised. War is a business and these two made lots of profit out of it. So it all begins when financially struggling David clueless about raising his unborn child. At a right time he meets his old friend Efraim and decides to partner with him to supply arms to the US army abroad in a small scale. But when they saw a big opportunity, they decided to give it a try. From the obstacles, they go the extra mile to achieve it. But not knowing how serious the consequences are, finally they step into a dangerous turf and from there, what follows is revealed in the remaining parts.

This is really amazing film. Obviously a slow start, but like after 10-15 minutes later it gets better and better. For these actors, this is something big and they have done it excellently. Jonah Hill was simply unbelievable. Kind of good, as well as negative, totally unpredictable character. Mile Teller was superb, he narrated the story with the opening scene, gun pointed at him, the flashback begins. While the story keeps developing, it only gets crazy and crazier. Nearly two long was never been an issue, because of the good pace, as well as for the off beast storyline.

Lately I have been seeing lots of Ana de Armas, quite a coincident to watch some many films of someone in a short time. Anyway, her role in this was small, but she was decent. From the director of 'Hangover' trilogy, I think one of his best films it is. If you like the American Dream themes like 'Pain & Gain' and 'Wolf of Wall Street' about making dollars in a fast way risking everything, you would enjoy it as well. Like those two, it was also a comedy, despite inspired by the real. One of the film posters imitates the 'Scareface', but there's a strong reason for that, so you should watch it. Definitely worth a watch, so I suggest it!

Those actors alone make this a worthwhile watch. The plot of the film is interesting and will drag you out like other war comedies this year, but it is all seen before and done better. Guys do illegal things, buy a lot of expensive sh*t, get into trouble, cue in bromance. I wish that the ensemble of such actors could have got a better, more fleshed out film than this. It still is fun though, will make you laugh and is enjoyable as a one time watch. I found no deep storytelling in War Dogs, but it was hella fun.… Expand

Though flawed, War Dogs' dramatisation of its real story is engrossing, with quick pacing, humour that works and captivating performances of its two leads.
