The reviewer gave it 3.5 stars and praised its impressive combination of real-life effects, daring stunts, exciting action sequences, and high-quality visual effects.
According to The Au Review, War Machine is a thrilling, old-school action movie that embraces the style of classic macho action films. However, the review suggests viewers should suspend disbelief and simply enjoy the over-the-top action and destruction.

According to a review in Jordan and Eddie, the film feels like it belongs alongside classic sci-fi horror movies from the 80s and 90s. The review predicts War Machine will be another popular, fast-paced hit for Netflix viewers seeking an exciting, thrilling experience.
