The Netflix original, War Machine, has been hailed as a fresh entry into sci-fi action movies, particularly in the 80s, featuring Alan Ritchson as an 80s action hero. The film, which stars Ritchon as 81, is a classic 80s movie about a soldier named 81 who joins the Army Rangers following the death of his brother in Afghanistan. The cast includes familiar faces such as Keiyan Lonsdale (Wally West from The Flash) and Daniel Webber (Steward) as 60, and Daenn Webber. The movie's execution of the soldiers' deaths is described as brutal, with a simple visual language that adds tension without explanation. The success of War Machine indicates that Netflix may greenlight a sequel to the film, given its success.
