Critics consensus

“Jet Li and Jason Statham find themselves on opposing sides in the immensely boring War , which is full of clichés but short on action.”

RTScreen InternationalJul 23, 2008

A needlessly elaborate plot somewhat spoils the pairing of these martial-arts icons, but this sturdy B-movie thriller has enough style to overcome its formulaic trappings.

All together now: 'War! Hurgh! What is it it good for?'

The blithesome action and wacky characters of Jason Statham's previous martial arts flicks are nowhere to be found here.
