"The final cut of the picture looks as though someone pulled it apart in post-production and forgot how the pieces fit. It's not a total mess, but
War
tends to get dizzy trying to keep the plot afloat."

2/4
"...
War
's relentlessly over-the-top visuals and hopelessly convoluted storyline ensure that it generally comes off as yet another needless entry within an exceedingly tired genre."
Reel Film Reviews

1.5/4
"
War
is largely a yawner."

"The fatal flaw of
War
... is that I don't give two craps about anyone in it."

2.5/4
"This isn't great cinema, but it adequately fills a niche. Those who like their action loud and bloody won't be disappointed. There's a high body count and lots of explosions and, for some, that's what this is all about."

"Hacer una mala película de acción con Jet Li y Jason Statham parece complicado. [...] Y sin embargo,
War
demuestra que con tesón, todo es posible."

"A cliff notes version of an action movie."

"[D]enies us the simple, brainless pleasure of watching these two guys get Oriental on each other's asses. It's like someone made
Gamera vs. Mothra
and, oops, forgot to give us two guys in rubber suits battling to the death."

2/4
"It's inexplicable that the filmmakers haven't given the stars many opportunities to pull out their celebrated skills en route to their inevitable head-on collision."

Michael Dequina
2/5
"If it weren't for the last act, the film would have ended up being just as functional as any cheesy action film from the 80s."
Film Threat
Michael Ferraro
2/4
"Not exactly the Jet Li/Jason Statham
battle royale
we had been promised."
Aisle Seat
Mike McGranaghan
1.5/4
"
War
is the
Heat
of cheesy Ameri-Euro-Asian kung-fu cop-crook movies."
Slant Magazine
Nick Schager
2/5
"Acaba revelando, em seu ato final, um esforço intrigante para surpreender o espectador, a esta altura, já fomos obrigados a agüentar uma infinidade de diálogos desastrosos e seqüências frouxas de ação e pouco pode ser feito para salvar o filme."
Cinema em Cena
Pablo Villaca
1.5/5
"If you've seen the trailer, then you've already seen a much more entertaining version of
War
."
