A brutal, action packed and well acted war movie

Rating: 10/10 (23 November 2014)

"Fury" is a brutal, action packed and well acted war movie that might not be one for those wanting an old fashioned heroic epic. But will thrill those looking for an explosive action film that has the guts to sometimes be as harsh as a real war can no doubt be. Think of it as "Saving Private Ryan." But without the perhaps unrealistically friendly heroes.
What makes "Fury" stand out that little bit more is the fact that a majority of the film takes place in a tank. Its not so much about the soldiers running around with guns as it the ones trapped together in the shady darkness of a tank. Though it branches out to show us the disaster that's happening around these characters as well.
Its not a completely offencive action movie either. A lot of war movies can perhaps cheapen war. But "Fury" makes you think about how brutal these kind of situations are. With actors that were apparently put through the paces to make the whole thing look as legit as possible. Brad Pitt is as good always. But its perhaps the other stars that shine through. I've always like what Jon Bernthal (Shane from "The Walking dead" can do) but even Shia LaBeouf was fantastic in this, and Logan Lerman is no doubt a young star in the making after this.
