Warfare (2025) Review | MovieTalk+
⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ Warfare is a movie I absolutely loved — and one I’m almost certain I’ll never watch again. Not because it isn’t good.It’s great.But because it feels too real. This is a war film that feels deliberately stripped of Hollywood in the best possible way. There’s no gloss, no manufactured adrenaline, no swelling score telling…
