While the relentless firefights should satisfy fans of military action films, uneven visual effects and confusing editing keep the movie from reaching its full potential.

Garrett generates a rooting interest through resilience and brute force, although as it funnels toward an inevitably chaotic final showdown, the film’s suspense doesn’t escalate alongside the bullets and body count.

B-

Thanks to the efforts of William Kaufman and crew, it delivers an entertaining slice of gritty cinematic combat that you can enjoy as a kick-ass action movie or as something with more on its mind, even if it has trouble articulating that.

Though set in a real and ongoing conflict, Man of War relies on tired Hollywood tropes.

2.5/5

In honor of its unexpected invocation of "Little Women": If you like good, strong words that mean something, "Man of War" is not the right action film.

Great movie tailored to the action lover! Storyline is similar to what we’ve all seen before but was still very enjoyable. My only issue was the gunfire went on too long in one scene. Other than that it satisfied my action fix. Definitely worth a watch!!

There’s so many deep meanings in this movie. Most of the dialogues are very intense and they give a lot of different perspectives and feelings. Not bad at all.

I actually paid to rent this, yikes. It is tired, unoriginal and monotonous. Didn't watch the whole thing. It was so bad I chose to do laundry and not pause it. I felt that the characters either overacted or under performed and there were too many stereotypes. There was nothing new here. If you must watch, please wait till its free.

Great movie all around. Definitely could have expanded more on Ukranian war (they tried but not quite hit it as critics noted) but worth your time to watch it

I really enjoyed this action flick. Danny Augustus who plays Vanka in a break out role masters his villain role as side kick to Daniel Bernhardt. Lamonica Garret does a great job as the protagonist. Director William Kaufman once again knocks it out of the park.
