Top Critics Reviews
fresh:
For critics of the war with an appetite for red meat, War, Inc. will prove filling, if not quite completely nourishing.

Only occasionally hits the target.

rotten:
Despite flashes of comic inspiration and an abundance of anything-goes boldness, this well-intentioned but wobbly satire is a chaotic free-fire zone.
– Joe Leydon,

rotten:
This John Cusack-driven exercise in scorched-earth political comedy is neither as dark nor as timely as intended, and certainly not as funny.

rotten:
War, Inc. squanders some top-tier talent (Marisa Tomei, Sir Ben Kingsley) as well as our patience.
