Critical reception

Time assessed the documentary as "superb" and "very moving".[5] The Washington Post considered the documentary well-told, upsetting and "ferocious".[6] The Hollywood Reporter certified "Body of War" was special among other antiwar documentaries for its "identification" with one particular human fate.[7] Moving Pictures agreed the film "secures its strength" by that.[8] The Los Angeles Times described this narrative as a "heartbreaking account" and moreover spoke of a strong indictment of "the tactical politics that led to the invasion".[9] The Boston Globe and The Kansas City Star also called it "heartbreaking".[10][11] The Toronto Star appreciated protagonist Tomas Young as a "fascinating, charismatic character".[12] The Philadelphia Inquirer stated Young's filmic portrait was a "complex profile in courage".[13] The Austin Chronicle said "Body of War" was "affecting" and a "cinematic argument against the war".[14] TV Guide resumed it was a "powerful film".[15]
