Tribeca Review: War, Inc.

Friday May 2, 2008
War, Inc. - First Look - Movie Review

Josh Seftel's satire War, Inc. is set in the so-called future, where corporations, not governments, run the world -- and the wars. The ridiculously likable John Cusack stars as Brand Hauser, a CIA hit man with a conscience sent to war-torn nation of Turaqistan to kill a dignitary, run a trade show, and orchestrate a celebrity wedding. The cast also includes Marisa Tomei, Ben Kingsley, and Hillary Duff, who's terrific as teenage pop princess Yonica Babyyeah. War, Inc. premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival and there are three more showing this weekend. The film also opens in theaters on May 23. Read Marcy's review.
