A hilarious takeoff on World War II training films. Full Review |
||
|
|
This wickedly funny satire takes no prisoners as it mixes World War II-era footage with new material. Full Review |
||
|
4.5/5 |
Its whip-smart handling of wartime America (both then and now) makes it as devilishly clever as it is riotously absurd. Full Review |
||
 1.5/4 |
It's a great idea for 20 minutes. Unfortunately, the movie's 78 minutes long. Full Review |

The target's a slow-moving one, and the digs get old fast. Full Review |

Although [director] Kutzera does a great job of cinematic excavation and editing, Military Intelligence and You! never manages to overcome its tone of glib condescension and soar to Strangelovian heights. Full Review |

If you are looking for an imaginative, World War II-based spoof that is also current and fresh and politically incorrect, then you, like me, will love Military Intelligence and You! Full Review |

3/4 |
An ingenious satire that could easily tip toward self-congratulation yet never does. Full Review |
||
|
1/4 |
We get the idea -- we may even agree with it: Just don't make us sit through 78 minutes of empty cleverness. Full Review |
||
|
2/4 |
Even at a brief 78 minutes, the jokes are too few, too repetitive and too obvious to really make this worthwhile. Full Review |

This movie is an imaginative idea that, in execution, just doesn't come off. Full Review |
||
|
|
An amusing novelty. Full Review |

|
4/5 |
Military Intelligence and You! is two movies for the price of one. It's both a loving spoof of World War II films and a pointed satire on America's involvement in Iraq. Full Review |
||
|
2/4 |
This gets old in about 10 minutes, but the movie strikes the same comic note for another hour. Full Review |

|
|
Often laugh-out-loud hilarious. Full Review |
||
|
2.5/5 |
To quote the film, 'There's no real victory in winning a battle we didn't have to fight.' Fair enough, but what about making a movie that didn't need to be made? Full Review |

|
It would be a shame if this smarmy, kiddie-pool-shallow bit of gimmickry were to be confused with clear-eyed satire. Full Review |

Kutzera is unable to sustain the humor for feature length %u2013 even a brief 76-minute feature length. The first half-hour is terrifically funny, but things run out of steam not long after. Full Review |
