Editor’s note: Our short take on Beast of War (2025): Firmly a Action, Horror, Thriller, War piece, but with a personal touch. Under Kiah Roache-Turner’s direction, the film keeps a steady rhythm and a clear sense of place. Standout turns from Mark Coles Smith, Joel Nankervis, Lee Tiger Halley keep it engaging even in quieter stretches. At 1h 27m, it moves with a measured pace and rarely overstays a scene. A respectable mid-tier entry with a couple of memorable beats. The marketing line “Survival is the only victory.” isn’t just flair; it’s fairly accurate. Worth a watch for the craft alone, even beyond the genre appeal.
