It's insufficiently moving as character-driven piece, but also lacks the urgency and suspense needed to make larger events vivid.

While War's dutiful sense of responsibility to its source material is laudable, it feels limiting.

RTScreen InternationalSep 5, 2019

While At War is a complex, steady, deeply intelligent film with a chilling resonance today, and a significant departure in tone from Amenabar's prior work.
