- Critics' reviews
-
-
"A crisp, tough-minded action film about an international group of mercenaries who stage a coup in a small, decaying West African country"
-
"he Dogs of War doesn't begin to deal with the moral complexity it promises: it keeps settling for easy, melodramatic solutions. Irvin is obviously a gifted storyteller, but he's shackled with the wrong story"
-
"Exceedingly well-shot (by Jack Cardiff) action film that will evaporate from the memory shortly after the end credits roll."
