Movie Reviews

The New Yorker - 9/10 by Richard BrodyThe glaring absence of political chatter doesn’t mar Treitz’s achievement: he has made an instant-classic Western.
AV Club - 9/10 by Ignatiy VishnevetskyA big part of the appeal of Men Go To Battle lies in its poky sense of humor, which recalls regional filmmaking gems like "The Whole Shootin’ Match" in the early going.
Variety - 9/10 by Nick SchagerStriking in its evocation of a demanding time and place, this intimate drama about individual and national transformation heralds the arrival of an arresting new filmmaking voice.
The Playlist - 8/10 by Nikola GrozdanovicIt’s a profoundly vague piece of filmmaking that hides an undeniable magnetism beneath its bare-boned narrative.
Entertainment Weekly - 8/10 by Joe McGovernThe shaggy, semi-focused but assuredly offbeat debut film from Zachary Treitz (co-written with House of Cards actress Kate Lyn Sheil) blends the Civil War with Mumblecore for one of the year’s most authentic trips in the way-back machine.
Slant Magazine - 7/10 by Oleg IvanovThe screenplay, by Zachary Treitz and Kate Lyn Sheil, fails to delineate the characters' motivations and concerns with any depth.
Los Angeles Times - 7/10 by Robert AbeleMen Go to Battle isn’t always effective, in that way DIY filmmaking sometimes irritates by deliberately avoiding “moments.” But as an offbeat lens through which to view an oft-mined era, it has a quiet pull.
The Hollywood Reporter - 7/10 by John DeForeMinimalist in terms of action and scope but attentive to the texture of what is onscreen.
The Film Stage - 7/10 by Daniel SchindelWhere many historical films are concerned with the movers and shakers of well-known events, Men Go to Battle is all about the micro view. It tells a story that happens to be set against a volatile backdrop, but is more about what it was like to live day-to-day in such a time.
Cinemalogue - 6/10 by Todd JorgensonAdmirable more for its effort than its execution, this ambitious period piece shows that it's possible to re-create the Civil War on a shoestring budget as long as you're more focused on capturing mood than historical nitpicking.
