The movie is a heroic tale of three blood brothers and their struggle in the midst of war and political upheaval. In it, we will see how love, politics, and loyalty threaten to tear them apart.
A tale of noble brotherhood compromised by self-interest and a messy love triangle, The Warlords, ultimately, tries to speak to the futility of war - but it does so by staging one gargantuan dustup after another.
The film has the dirty-fingernails realism of a Peckinpah western, and the same remorseless pessimism about the ultimate fate of men who live near death.
How do you make a censor-friendly Chinese movie about government massacres? You turn it into a soap opera.

Warlords is so intent on expertly choreographed, but repetitive, enormo-battles that there isn't much time to develop characters (and the less said about a tacked-on romance, the better).
Washington Post

In The Warlords, war is heaven. In fact, it makes everything else seem tedious by comparison.
It isn't clear if "Warlords" is supposed to be a comedy or an adventure thriller but it will only appeal to those who appreciate the screaming cast of thousands.
... a muscular character piece set against a massive war and the power relationships behind the battles (as well as more severed limbs than I've seen in a single film).
