Leave your thoughts about War Story.
| The Film StageJordan RaupWar Story provides a refreshingly specific, restrained story of loss and recovery in the boundaries of battle. |
| NewsBlazePrairie MillerExemplary actress Keener, through no fault of her own, is stuck in this sulky melodrama as a photographer scarred in war torn Libya. As for that conflict, forget about it. This could just as well be about deep depression brought on by a bad hair day. |
| Screen InternationalMark AdamsA dense and taut drama, a study on post-traumatic stress disorder that at its best is strikingly tense and heavy with sadness. |
| Film Journal InternationalDavid NohInfuriatingly slow, enervating and basically empty contemplation of war's impact, and a waste of the formidable talent of a gallant Catherine Keener. |
| Los Angeles TimesSheri LindenFor much of the early going it's the burdened physicality that Keener brings to the role that tells us everything we need to know. |
| NPRTomas HachardIn Keener's hands, the collapse feels urgent but not unhinged, and Lee's trajectory from steely and determined to openly distraught lends an otherwise meandering film a strong core. |
| User ReviewNathan M3.0 War Story (2014) - A raw and fairly brutal story about two women facing different forms of violent blowback from the Islamic world. One, played by an understated Catherine Keener, is a war photojournalist who was taken hostage and the other is a young North African girl who is facing sharp difficulties of her own. While it did seem a bit heavy on silent character building on the part of Keener's character and felt a bit stretched to fill its feature length runtime, it was worth a watch. It is a story about perseverance. It is a story about compassion as a compass when everything else hits the fan. Overall, the film is very visual in its storytelling. The score is very minimalistic. The only redeeming quality of living in a situation such as this is that original compositions by Amy Lee are apparently playing on the radio all the time. While it isn't the 90 minute Evanescence music video I was hoping for (kidding), the handful of contributions that Amy made are solid and I am looking forward to the soundtrack album that she's releasing as a companion to the film.

| User ReviewKen HPerhaps the worst movie I have ever seen. The first 30 minutes is some of the worst film making in the history of cinema. Pass on this, or you will regret it. Ugh.... |
