Review

Variety
Another stellar Vincent Lindon performance is the main reason to weather this stormy, strident portrait of an industrial dispute https://variety.com/2018/film/reviews/at-war-review-1202808151/

The Hollywood Reporter
A generally gripping account of workers taking on the man.https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/review/at-war-en-guerre-review-1107075

Screendaily Cannes 2018
Another role ideally suited to Vincent Lindon’s knack for portraying decent guys trying to do their best under daunting circumstances.
