Great WW2 Tank Focused Film With Subpar Script

Rating: 6/10 (1 April 2019)

Fury is a great tank flick of a film that focuses on tank warfare, sort of focus that is quite rare. Not only that, I'm pleasantly surprised to see them use genuine Sherman and Tiger tanks (working museum models) which shows they put a lot of care in getting across the historical accuracy of how these tanks operated.
With that said, can't say the same for the actual script, tactics and methods used here. My favourite scene being the Tiger battle against the Shermans, and sadly, my least favourite would have to be the ending.
The ending was your typical cliche hollywood last stand as the 'heroes' of the film face off against the germans in a last ditch suicidal effort because 'reasons'. Reasons that are never really explained other than a sense of hatred for the SS, and it so happens that an SS Platoon is making their way to them.
All in all, a disappointing finish with a last stand that made absolutely zero sense because of the german inability to flank and surround an immobilized tank. But hey, if it made sense, then we would probably get a very different film.
And maybe just a slightly better visual experience than what we ended up getting.
Regardless, Fury is a great watch up until the ending, and should be enjoyed for what it is; TANKS!
