Review of War Dogs (2016) by Thegodfatherson — 22 Aug 2016

Todd Philips' war comedy is a film that lacks some substance, but most of it is filled up by the brilliant performances of Jonah Hill, Miles Teller and Bradley Cooper. 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.
