About this movie

Based on a true story, the film follows two friends in their early 20s (Hill and Teller) living in Miami during the Iraq War who exploit a little-known government initiative that allows small businesses to bid on U.S. Military contracts. Starting small, they begin raking in big money and are living the high life. But the pair gets in over their heads when they land a $300 million deal to arm the Afghan Military—a deal that puts them in business with some very shady people, not the least of which turns out to be the U.S. Government.

Ratings and reviews

War dogs is nothing like the hangover is they share only 1 thing and that's the director. Todd Phillips gives us another great film that id very dark and not as funny as you would think. Yes the movie is under the comedy section but it is not a comedy its a film that shows that war is a way to make money for some. I absolutely loved every part of this movie and highly recommend it.

I first heard this real life story on the podcast Snap Judgement...when I realized it was a movie, I went to see it in theatres. The movie is a great insight in to how war is viewed as just a dollars and cents money maker to many private firms in this world. Solid 4 out of 5. More so I recommend listening to SNAP JUDGEMENT ACCIDENTAL ARMS DEALER. Google it...That is a 5 of 5 to me

War Dogs is a funny and fast-paced movie about two guys who get involved in the arms trade. It's full of humor, action, and a bit of drama. Miles Teller and Jonah Hill are both great in their roles. If you're looking for a fun and entertaining movie, I recommend checking out War Dogs
