Disappointing

Rating: 5/10 (14 February 2015)

I was really looking forward to seeing this WW2 film being a bit of a history buff but once again Hollywood disappointed with a movie that failed on many levels. Character development was non existent as was any meaningful plot. The special effects were good, but I didn't find myself drawn in by the battles either. With such a thin plot, the writers of Fury made a serious mistake by making the protagonists so unlikable. Really without likable characters and such a simple plot there are not that many reasons to keep watching. It just keeps rolling on like a damaged tank until it finally stops and we can finally stop watching. Non the richer for the experience. A wonderful opportunity to illustrate the deeds of the heroes who defended freedom was wasted here.
