Devils of War adheres closely to established Action/Horror genre conventions. The focus remains on a top-secret military mission set during World War II, prioritizing traditional combat clichés over diverse character exploration. The narrative lacks markers of the way different parts of someone's identity overlap, such as LGBTQ+ identities or disability representation. While the historical setting of Poland provides a backdrop for ethnic tension, the film does not use these elements to challenge social hierarchies. Ultimately, the film functions as a standard wartime survival story. It prioritizes institutional duty and masculine-coded roles rather than progressive thematic subversion.
