I expected little from this find, given the lame DVD cover (not as shown here), but was pleasantly surprised. The satire is muted and underplayed but sharp. Archival footage is mixed in nicely with faux-vintage new footage, and the performances, if stock, were high calibre (pun intended). Good idea, good writing, good dig at American foreign policy. (I'm not American, i'm on the receiving end.)

Allegedly intended, and certainly billed, as a parody of the military training and recruitment videos of the 40s, it only occasionally seems to put forth the effort to make actual jokes at their expense, and at the expense of the military. Apart from these occasional ribbings at the differences between actual wartime situations and the watered down equivalents portrayed in those old propganda-reels (and a few sly references to America's current war on the abstract concept of "fear"), it more often than not comes across as more of a genuine tribute to them. Still, it kept me fairly amused.

Not as funny as I'd hoped, some of the satirical barbs are on target, and a few lines which made me laugh "We gave the world popcorn! Who doesn't love popcorn?"

MADE ME LAUGH......WORTH A LOOK

very much like "kung pow" in using an older movie and inserting new actors and plotlines...so well executed...and frickin ronald reagans in it...good shiiiite

Not as promising as the trailer would suggest. Funny, but does get a bit old after a while. An extra star for originality of concept.

Some laugh out loud moments...fairly silly, but I enjoy the satire and 1940's film look.

Quite a good comedy. Nothing ground breaking but the satire hits the nail a few time. True enough, the next generation will have no idea why a bunch of filmmakers could have feel the urge to share their thoughts on military intelligence but then again one doesn't need to equal Molière every times one takes a camera.The WWII spoof propaganda is quite skillfully integrated into the real stuff to create a rather thrilling war story, where the joke never overpowers the logic of the fiction. The tone of that type of movies is fairly well respected.Besides, the film is not a blind attack on America as such, it acts more like a positive criticism (both the hypocrisy of the 1940s racist country fighting for freedom and the naughties power spreading war thoughtlessly). Overall I enjoyed it a lot and I'd recommend it both for WWII era movies enthusiasts as politically conscious cinephiles.

A hilarious takeoff on World War II training films.

This wickedly funny satire takes no prisoners as it mixes World War II-era footage with new material.

Its whip-smart handling of wartime America (both then and now) makes it as devilishly clever as it is riotously absurd.

If you are looking for an imaginative, World War II-based spoof that is also current and fresh and politically incorrect, then you, like me, will love Military Intelligence and You!

An ingenious satire that could easily tip toward self-congratulation yet never does.

An amusing novelty.

Military Intelligence and You! is two movies for the price of one. It's both a loving spoof of World War II films and a pointed satire on America's involvement in Iraq.
