An interesting movie, as it is based on a true war experience that the director had during the Iraq War. I think what makes the movie great is the phenomenal sound design and the grounded, realistic representation of war. There is no glorification of the soldiers or the war - it is dirty, frightening, and downright horrific. Most of the story revolves entirely around one house, as tension mounts throughout the film.
The only problem is that there is no real understanding or exploration of any of the characters. However, I think that's fine, because the film is more about the horror of war than anything else.

The title Hurry Up Tomorrow is incredibly appropriate-because the entire time I was watching it, I just wanted it to hurry up and end. Calling this a "film" is generous; surviving it felt more like a cinematic endurance test.
The plot is laughably shallow, padded with so much pointless fluff that the pacing is downright painful. Abel Tesfaye, a.k.a. The Weeknd, essentially plays himself-and not well. His acting is so stiff, it's almost impressive. Sharing scenes with Jenna Ortega only makes it worse; she effortlessly outshines him at every turn, making his performance look like a high school drama rehearsal.
To make matters worse, the whole movie is drenched in ego. There's a scene-I'm not making this up-where Jenna's character actually analyzes the deep themes of his music. It tries to present itself as some kind of profound artistic statement, but really, it's just a 100-minute commercial for his new album.
Abel, please-stick to your day job.

Yep, it's another Jason Statham action movie. David Ayer directed the last Jason movie, The Beekeeper (2024), which was a fun time. A Working Man feels mostly the same, with Jason seemingly playing the same hidden badass character-again.
It retains all the same problems as before: bad writing, dumb dialogue, forgettable characters, and overly cartoonish villains. David has certainly learned nothing from the previous movie. What makes this one worse, though, is that there are too many characters, too many villains, and the movie is just too long. It does have some fun action set pieces, but that's really all it has.
