War on Everyone review- minimum cool

Two corrupt cops in New Mexico come up against a really big bad.

War on Everyone is the latest film from writer/director John Michael McDonagh after The Guard and Calvary. And it’s easily the worst of the three.

Maybe that’s partly because I had rather high hopes. McDonagh has been talking about the project for years and it sees him working with a higher budget, even bigger stars and in a new country. Plus the idea of a black comedy about two really terrible cops creating mayhem sounds like it’s right up his street.
