Review of Fury

Fury (2014)
10/10
The best World War 2 films since The Thin Red Line and Saving Private Ryan
24 September 2015
I really enjoyed this movie. The ensemble cast was terrific. David Ayer delivered with this film, which was actually shot on film, and it's his best film since End of Watch. His last film Sabotage was well...garbage. In this film we experience WWII from inside a tank, it's pretty grimy, filthy, gritty, and excruciatingly edgy. I would say this film is like The Alamo inside a tank. Yeah, it's that awesome.

What i really appreciated with this film is that i was absorbed and immersed in the movie to the point where i wasn't aware i was viewing a movie at all, but simply an unspoken member of the team inside the tank. This happened because they avoided using the annoying, cliché, over-used hand-held camera crap that's ubiquitous today. The classical cinematography made it more realistic, raw, suspenseful, and tough to the point where you can almost smell the odor of the men and the dirt.

Great job to the whole crew and cast of this marvelous motion picture. Cheers!
