Rating: 9/10 (7 November 2014)

"Fury" is one of the best World War movies I've seen in recent times. And I feel most of the credits should be given to the director of photography, the team behind the movie's splendid special effects and the movie's sound design department. The war sequences have been captured in a jaw-dropping manner and the consequent sounds that would reverberate across the theater every time a bomb would be dropped or a shot would be fired from a gun or a tank were enough to transport the audience to the "other side" of the screen right amidst all the action.
This movie didn't exactly need a superstar to carry it on his shoulders. However Brad Pitt's stardom is like the icing on the cake. A lot of people including me, came to watch the movie just because his name was associated with the movie. Little did I expect that there was so much more to this movie than just Brad Pitt. Having said that, Brad Pitt as an actor in this movie, has done a marvelous job. He plays Wardaddy and his job is to command the Sherman tank named 'Fury' well behind enemy lines so that he can annihilate as many German soldiers as possible . He is this adamant guy who is hell-bent on winning the war for his country.
The actors who play the other 4 soldiers in the tank have done a commendable job in assisting Pitt's character every now and then. But amongst the 4 of them, actor Logan Lerman shines the most. With this movie he has taken his acting to a whole new level.
The movie keeps you engaged from the very first scene right until the end. Please do not watch this movie for the sake of Brad Pitt. Watch this movie for its cinematography. So go to the movie theater, sit back and be assured that you will be taken on a journey back in time to April 1945.
