The Reacher star advocated for more brutal violence in Guy Ritchies WWII action film.

“A slightly apocryphal historical remix, Ministry is Ritchie’s best film in a long time. It can’t claim to reinvent the wheel, as the director is still pretty comfortable in sticking with what works,” Lyvie Scott of Inverse noted in a review. Another review from Fred Topel for United Press International added, “Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare makes history fun. Whether it inspires viewers to learn more about Operation Postmaster, it at least informs them of the basics in a fun romp.”

Even Bad Reviews Praise the Cast

Grace Randolph said the two are “excellent” in the movie, but was disappointed that Eiza Gonzalez didn’t have more screen time, further describing the movie as a “very watered down version of Inglourious Basterds.” /Film’s Jeremy Mathai would also call the movie a “fun, yet forgettable step in the wrong direction,” giving it a middle-of-the-road score of 5/10.
