Gritty and great

Rating: 8/10 (3 April 2017)

Fury is an incredible war film about Norman's (Logan Lerman)story of the war from wimp recruit to a shell-shocked and battle hardened soldier. This is one of the best war films from the last couple of years only competing with: inglorious basterds, American sniper and the hurt locker for the top spot. this is unfortunately because of the drought of war films but with The wall starring john Cena and Aaron Taylor Johnson coming up the future of war films is looking up.
Brad Pitt and Jon Bernthal have worked together before this in Tarantino's Inglorious Basterds gaining some good war film experience. Micheal Pena and director David Ayer both worked together on End of Watch. I'm also sure Shia la Beouf gained a bit of war film experience from transformers.
From the very start of the film Logan Lerman puts up a great performance as Norman and does very well to fit in with the all star cast. The film has some incredible shots showing the good the bad and horrific bits of the war. The tension is great throughout the film but sometimes stops because of long drawn out scenes.
Altogether fury is a great war time drama/action film with an all star cast the only bad things in it are a couple of clichés some unnecessarily long drawn out scenes and the film being a little bit too long.
