Leave your thoughts about War Book.
| Flick FilosopherMaryAnn JohansonRiveting, terrifying, and unafraid to confront its own quiet horror. One of the most important movies ever about nuclear weapons and modern governance. |
| Contactmusic.comRich ClineWith an ingenious concept, this fairly simple film becomes one of the most gripping thrillers of the year even though it rarely leaves a wood-panelled conference room. |
| GuardianMike McCahillHarper's framing is always dynamic, and often pointed: each glimpse of life passing blithely by this room's only window provides a sobering reminder of the extent to which we're at the mercy of those who would govern us. |
| Little White LiesDavid JenkinsThe artifice of the whole thing often overwhelms. |
| User ReviewJulian SA superb, brilliantly written and acted thoughtful piece, almost entirely set in one room. Up there with Fail Safe in terms of the ideas and morality explored. |
| User ReviewChristopher HWell acted, succinct, gripping but bleak play out of the doomsday scenario. |
| User ReviewElgan DA tight low budget drama which is very reminiscent of the likes of '12 Angry Men' and 'Margin Call'. Largely the dialogue is sharp and thought provoking, the periods in which exterior issues are brought in are where the picture loses its power. |
| User ReviewPaul DIf you can withstand some of the political jargon, this is a very interesting political drama. It's all theory, but it does bring up some thought-provoking issues about armageddon. |
