War On Everyone starts with a great gag involving a mime artist, and from then on hits the mark now and again, as the humour and occasional knowing winks become increasingly inconsistent. Pena and Skarsgard are good value as the corrupt-cop buddies, and Theo James plays pleasingly against type. The film does its best to offend as many groups as possible, but the script sometimes feels like it would have benefited from more work, as sometimes scenes lack a punchline or a point. It is an easy film to warm to and to be entertained reasonably by, but it does not hit the heights of the similarly-styled The Nice Guys.
