War, Inc.

2008 / Joshua Seftel > Those who are looking for John Cusack to be John Cusack, or those who want to see Hilary Duff put on an Eastern European accent and mimic Britney as popstar Yonica Babyyeah, War, Inc. is a good watch. But if it’s biting political satire that is being sought, it’s probably better to go back to Bulworth or Wag the Dog because this script doesn’t know what it wants to be or who it wants to offend. It’s heavy-handed and a total waste of a good setup considering how relevant the film could be in current society.
