This is not a serious film

but in addition to the fun

There are some stories about people in it

Brothers who grew up together in each other's lives? Is a mutual profit business partner? Or business rivals who should be wary?

One simple transaction changed the makeup of all these relationships

I envy a friend like you

The film is based on a true story about an adult David (Myles Teller) who can only earn a little money by giving others massages all day long.

Coincidentally, girlfriend tested pregnant again

Being poor, he decided to start his own business

As a result, David's lack of consideration for the assets is all tied up

Facing a room full of unsellable sheets, he was a little discouraged

At this time, he met his rich childhood friend Efraim (Jonah Hill)

Under Efraim's persuasion, David decided to start an arms business with him without telling his girlfriend

In his eyes Efraim is a different kind of person

When life slaps you

David will choose to endure

Unlike Efraim, he will choose to fight back

Maybe that's his rule of thumb

Always put your own interests first and never suffer losses passively

David can't do something like this

He prefers a safer follower

When things go too smoothly

Ambition follows

Efraim and David's careers are slowly starting to get on track

In addition to searching for a small number of orders on the US military network on weekdays

They are also trying to take some bigger orders

However, arms trade is, after all, restricted in many ways

The opening-up policies of various countries are changing at any time

This hinders the transportation and transit of their weapons

So they came up with a crazy behavior

Crossing Iraq in person with a truckload of dangerous weapons

Then there was a confrontation with the local armed forces in the desert

The thrilling moment was that the U.S. fighter planes arrived in time

They also successfully passed through the death triangle

This success made their name as an "arms company"

They're starting to become programmatic at scale

Natural goals are also more "ambitious" and their ambitions gradually emerge

Finally got a chance and the two received a $300 million order from the military

when they have a headache for their suppliers

An arms dealer legend found them - Henry Girard

He promised to supply Efraim and David for a low price

This is of course the perfect solution

Although Henry Girard himself was blacklisted as a US terrorist

But it doesn't prevent them from making money together

Benefit

Or profit ruins it all

Although the whole process seems to be smooth

But in fact they overlooked a lot of things

eventually led to the breakdown of their partnership

For example Henry sold them ammo for 4 times the local price in Albania

earned the difference

This made Efraim very dissatisfied and threatened to cancel the cooperation with Henry

poses a threat to David's personal safety

For example, David believes that Efraim's personal assets will be contracted by the two

Just put it in the office

The contract was gone when David came back from Albania

The relationship between the two broke down

Efraim, for example, dismisses the $100,000 fee demanded by local packers in Albania

has been delayed

As a result, the packer reported it to the U.S. Department of Foreign Affairs

put their business under investigation again

All the fake documents

And that bullets from China were repackaged and sold to the U.S. military were also exposed

When the idea of ​​the supremacy of interests is ingrained

There is no such thing as a brotherhood partner.

The whole context of the film is more vivid

black humor

There are many movies of the same type

War Dogs quotes

  • David Packouz: [From the beginning of the film, as Miles Teller's character, David Packaouz, narrates over visuals of soldiers in war and as price figures of what a soldier's gear costs are displayed] What do you know about war? They'll tell you it's about patriotism, democracy... or some shit about the other guy hating our freedom. But you wanna know what it's really about? What do you see? A kid from Arkansas doing his patriotic duty to defend his country? I see a helmet, fire-retardant gloves, body armor and an M16. I see $17, 500. That's what it costs to outfit one American soldier. Over two million soldiers fought in Iraq and Afghanistan. It cost the American taxpayer $4.5 billion each year just to pay the air conditioning bills for those wars. And that's what war is really about. War is an economy. Anybody who tells you otherwise is either in on it or stupid.

  • Efraim Diveroli: [while impersonating an army officer to a weapons vendor on the telephone] You keep supplying the guns, we'll keep killing the bad guys. God bless you.
