With great jobs, a beautiful daughter (Alena Pitts) and a dream house, the Jordans seem to have it all. Appearances can be deceiving, however, as husband Tony (T.C. Stallings) flirts with temptation and wife Elizabeth (Priscilla Shirer) becomes increasingly bitter, crumbling under the strain of a failing marriage. Their lives take an unexpected turn for the better when Elizabeth meets her newest client, Miss Clara (Karen Abercrombie), who encourages the couple to find happiness through prayer.

Richard Brody The New Yorker 10/08/2015
Kendrick's view of Christian devotion involves only trivial sacrifices and offers a gospel of self-help that masks its wider doctrinal implications. Go to Full Review Brad Wheeler Globe and Mail 09/18/2015

An affluent African-American family is going through some domestic issues: Husband loses job, daughter is being ignored, mother has a foot-odour situation - the usual. The answer? Submit to a resurrected carpenter. Go to Full Review Christy Lemire ChristyLemire.com 09/11/2015

War Room is the most slickly made faith-based film I've seen yet in terms of production values, but that doesn't make it quote-unquote good, per se. Go to Full Review Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com 09/26/2020
3.0/4.0
The film's best performance may very well come from young Alena Pitts. Go to Full Review Tim Brennan About Boulder 02/13/2020
...it's the fault of the Kendrick Brothers, who have made a film that gleefully rejects nuance and shades of gray. Go to Full Review Tim Brayton Antagony & Ecstasy 07/10/2016

Ronald Evan T @Draggstar Jan 12 I give it a solid 7/10 because it shows how prayer and faith should tie in our relationships and its just inspiring. See more Tracey H @Tracey1977 Dec 29 Such an inspirational movie of God's restorative nature, of our human condition and the power of prayer. I throughly enjoyed it. I want to watch the other films now associated with these writers and directors. And build my own War Room. Uplifting, sweet. A bit cliche, but thats OK.
