Brad Pitt remains an actor worth watching. He can be compelling and enjoyable even when he finds himself playing a disappointing character in a lackluster movie, and this is precisely what occurs in writer-director David Michôd's War Machine, which launches on Netflix on May 26th. The movie, which is "inspired" by Michael Hastings's non-fiction work, The Operators: The Wild & Terrifying Inside Story of America's War in Afghanistan, is seemingly meant to be a dark comedy.
