Netflix instant play, midnight. What else can you ask for? Cuba's playing a Military Recon type of guy this time, alongside J.K. Simmons, Lance Reddick, and Clarence Williams in supporting roles. There's your usual hints of a global conspiracy and Cuba has to stop it, going crazy as the film progresses. We have a cheesy romance and a few confusing flashbacks besides.
It was enjoyable for a mind-numbing hour and a half, not much else. Cuba's movies are like that nowadays. He does a better acting job here than say Lies and Illusions, but it's a far, far cry from Shadowboxer.
I found the music to be surprisingly good for a straight-to-video action flick. The cinematography is a bit grainy but otherwise fine. The start credits were bland but fast. Sets and costumes were believable.
Don't go in looking for too much but "The Way of War" was a watchable DTV actioner, if you're not looking for too much in way of quality.
