WARFARE

Told entirely from the team members memory, a platoon of Navy Seals take over and occupy a house in Iraq in 2006. Having been spotted, the team is then attacked and must fight their way out to save their lives. The trailer doesn't give away too much of the story and there's a couple of familiar faces in the cast such as Will Poulter who plays the team leader Erik, Cosmo Jarvis who plays a sniper named Elliott, and Joseph Quinn who plays Sam (wasn't sure if he was a medic or what exactly his role is). Like so many war films, it dissects the cost of war both physically and mentally, while I was left pondering the question of "was it worth it" upon exiting the theater. Nothing new or outstanding being brought to the genre but the film does have the blessing of some of the real life Seals who survived as they assisted with the training amongst other things. If you're interested in war genre films, I've seen worse. If not, this probably isn't your cup of tea then. 6/10
