Robert Abele Los Angeles Times The access that Bcue-Renard got, reportedly after five months of being there without a camera, is remarkable ... Nov 13, 2015 Full Review Bilge Ebiri New York Magazine/Vulture What emerges is a tapestry of despair, one defined by its persistence. Nov 9, 2015 Full Review Jeannette Catsoulis New York Times Filmed almost entirely inside the Pathway Home in California, a residential therapy center for veterans, this devastatingly raw documentary shows that for some the fighting may stop, but the suffering continues. Nov 6, 2015 Full Review Joanne Laurier World Socialist Web Site Bécue-Renard's documentary is a unique, disturbing look at the devastating psychological and physical wounds suffered by America's so-called "warriors." Feb 26, 2021 Full Review C.J. Prince Way Too Indie Bécue-Renard's film is initially surprising in how it places emotions-along with the act of confronting emotions-at the forefront. Rated: 7.5/10 May 24, 2019 Full Review Cynthia Fuchs PopMatters For all the individual horrors it documents, Of Men and War... is organized as a collective experience, following multiple, mostly unnamed veterans as they share in group or in pairs, expressing rage and fear, frustration, and small pleasures. Rated: 9/10 Jun 1, 2016 Full Review Read all reviews
