Dated, maybe, but Lester's gruesomely black anti-war comedy still looks inventive, and manages occasionally to hit home with its blend of surreal lunacy and barbed satire. February 9, 2006 | Full Review…

I am afraid Mr. Lester has not added a single discouragement of war, but simply a little discouragement toward patronizing too-pretentious films. May 9, 2005 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

I got no impression from this film that Lester really, personally, cares very strongly one way or the other about war. It was only a currently fashionable subject, a good excuse to make a movie. October 23, 2004 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

Lester's op-pop style, jump cutting from incident to incident, seems too inherently cheerful for the material, which features fountains of stage blood. January 1, 2000 | Full Review…

The first problem with How I Won the War is that the basic farce is not all that funny. March 18, 2020 | Full Review…

We've been handed this kind of tripe in every Terry Thomas, Peter Sellers, Martin and Lewis, Laurel and Hardy Army spoof ever made. January 31, 2020 | Full Review…

It suggests an overaged boyishness almost incapable of relating to the hard-nosed, dry, sardonic war films supposedly under attack here. October 3, 2018 | Full Review…

A film so critical of others' attitudes should perhaps have given more positive vetting to its own. April 11, 2016 | Full Review…

Thought provoking, at very least, John Lennon starrer. February 23, 2008 | Rating: 3/5

This seemingly incongruous mixture will work for some viewers, and, though the seriousness of Lester's intent may not be appreciated by everyone, most should at least find something here to make them laugh. September 10, 2007 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…
