Is there nothing Brad Pitt can't do????

Rating: 1/10 (22 March 2015)

Having just watched Fury I am now going to recruit as a tank man. It was a totally inspiring performance that left me cheering, crying and filled with patriotic pride. From the very beginning I could tell we were in for a roller-coaster of a ride, a war film of epic proportion. When Brad Pitt jumped off that tank and killed the Nazi I was thinking 'gentlemen the tone has been set'. Me and my fellow brothers in the room just looked at each other and nodded slowly through a haze of tobacco smoke. Later on the tank battles that followed were like being in a real tank battle yourself. Brad brought it to life with his blue steel looks and words. Without this vital ingredient the film would have been rather basic, similar to that other film 'Saving Private Bryan'. The dinner scene was beautiful and timed just right. The tension that had built up until that point was at bursting point and I remember standing up a few times clenching my fists only for my friend to place a hand on my shoulder and telling me to calm down and that a real warrior wears his pain. Even in times of war there can be beautiful things like an innocent woman falling in love with a hero. But as with war there is no time for rest and our tank crew was rushing off to save more innocents. A Tiger tank tried to get them (would have been nice to use a more realistic one) but failed. I seriously doubt it would have killed that many good guy tanks but it is a movie so we can except a few bent rules. But after this little distraction the lads were ready for their final mission. A mission that saved us all from Nazi rule. I don't want to ruin the end but it was amazing. At one point me and all my friends were shooting our rifles at the TV (not real ones, we're not stupid) that's how realistic the movie was. Wow. Anyway I'm off to watch this film again and again and again.
