The Hurt Locker

Rating: 10/10 (27 September 2010)

I'm a whoosy gal - with a vivid imagination. In another life, I should be a Film Editor. But I digress ~ The Hurt Locker was brilliant. The acting was superb and the direction magnificent. Usually "movies" I watch - I watch for hiccups during the viewing - to me, there were none in this film (not a movie). Ms. Bigelow (a town name in Arkansas, my home) - your leadership was awesome!! I'd love to have lunch with you one day but I know THAT will never happen. One full hour of conversation with a smart person would be a vacation to me. Ms. Bigelow's line of thinking was spot on. I have recommended this film to everybody I know across the U.S. As squeamish as I am about anything "gooey" - I bolt! This film had me on the edge of my chair, drawing closer, drawn in, pumped up with intensity. Wonderful work, Ms. Bigelow. How pleasant it is to view a film by a talent such as Ms. Bigelow! Praises through and through from me. Awesome work.
