great movie, Renner's performance couldn't be better

Rating: 9/10 (26 March 2011)

The Hurt Locker is a 2009 drama war film directed by Kathryn Bigelow and starring Jeremy Renner as Sgt. William James. James is left to control a group of soldiers trained to disarm bombs after their former leader was K.I.A. The soldiers, however, do not approve of James' orders.
The film was flat out great, it was very entertaining and Renner's performance couldn't have been better. He does a very good job and puts himself inside his character. The film makes it look like you're in the middle of it all, and it's shot very well. If you are in the mood to view a war film, this is one of your best.
