Rating: 9/10 (21 March 2011)

"The Hurt Locker" is about a sergeant that takes control of a highly trained bomb disposal unit. His unqualified past makes him constantly risk his own life, and the lives of people around him, in order to dispose each individual bomb. Without thinking, he attempts to disarm bombs using suicidal methods, disregarding danger.
Kathryn Bigelow has created a masterpiece. This film is professionally crafted, with no negatives. It shows us exactly how soldiers lived, and how hard it was coping with all the near death experiences of themselves and their friends. Soldiers have risked their lives to save us, and this film truly represents it.
The film is a true success, and one of the best thrillers currently around. It showed suspense and drama the whole way through. It also allowed me to see exactly just how hard it is to cope in the world of war. The result of this intelligent film, is an action-driven ride through war.
The movie clearly shows how the drug of war grabs the viewer in, and keeps them watching a brilliant creation of classic war.
Every scene is tense, and I would highly recommend this film to anyone with a like for action, thrills and suspense. It excited me from the first minute. The best film in years!
