War dogs follows the journey of two low end arms dealers David Packouz and Efraim Diveroli on their journey to the top when they secure themselves a contract from the Pentagon to provide military weapons to U.S. allies in Afghanistan. In this criminal war comedy the two friends start off their business by exploiting a government initiative that allows small businesses to bid on military weapons contracts.
After tasting a little bit of success, the pair find themselves pitching and winning a 300 million dollar contract from the government to trade abroad with U.S allies. In turn they find themselves in a situation where they are soon out of their depth in terms of the people that they have been sent to trade with. This film directed by Todd Phillips (The Hangover trilogy) brings us this film based on the true story of these two chancers who ended up winning the contract due to the fact that they had 'low-balled' their calculations considerably undercutting other competitors.
