A hilarious comedy, that also has some superb dramatic moments.

Rating: 9/10 (22 August 2016)

War Dogs tells the true story of two men in their 20s named, Efraim Diveroli(Jonah Hill) & David Packouz(Miles Teller). Efraim & David realize that they can make easy money, by selling guns & other war equipment to the American military. Soon the two childhood friends make a name for themselves & land a major million dollar contract to sell different kinds of guns & ammunition to the military. However, things don't quite go according to plan.
War Dogs is a fantastic film. This movie has many extremely funny scenes. The one-liners will crack you up. However, what really makes this film stand out from all the other adult comedies is that, it has a beautiful emotional core. This makes you care about all the main characters in the film. The dramatic moments in the movie, are as powerful as the comedic moments. The only flaw in this movie is that, it's not as funny as it could have been. The performances are the highlight of the film. Jonah Hill is spectacular as Efraim Diveroli. Hill continues to masterfully balance comedy & drama, after his role in The Wolf of Wall Street(2013). Miles Teller is outstanding as David Packouz. Teller brings an irresistible dry humor to his role. The chemistry between Hill & Teller is effortless. It really feels like they are childhood friends. Ana de Armas is awesome as Iz. Bradley Cooper is amazing in his small yet significant role, as Henry Girard. Shaun Toub is great as Marlboro. Director Todd Phillips has successfully made an adult comedy/drama, after two continuous sequels & four full fledged adult comedies. Kudos! War Dogs is a must watch. Go, laugh until your sides hurt.
