A Netflix executive reportedly got inspired after experiencing Metal Gear Solid, exclaiming that it sparked an idea for a film. War Machine depicts John Armyman’s battle against a Metal Gear, accompanied by tough phrases and a peculiar habit of consuming nails—a demonstration of his extreme coolness. It seems designed to encourage viewers to enlist in the US army. While the performances were decent and the special effects were acceptable, the movie suffers from being remarkably commonplace, leaving little else to comment on. The film concludes with an unresolved ending that hints at a follow-up installment. The narrative also functions as subtle promotion for the American military, consistently presenting them as heroic figures who safeguard their nation—a timing that feels questionable given current awareness of substantial government expenditure on military actions in the Middle East. I did find some amusement in the violent death sequences.
