Fury


In Fury, it is April, 1945. As the Allies make their final push in the European Theatre, a battle-hardened army sergeant named Wardaddy (Brad Pitt) commands a Sherman tank and her five-man crew on a deadly mission behind enemy lines. Outnumbered and outgunned, and with a rookie soldier thrust into their platoon, Wardaddy and his men face overwhelming odds in their heroic attempts to strike at the heart of Nazi Germany.

This was a very well done movie and the goal was clearly to make you feel like you are there in the middle of the war and more specifically - in the tank.  That mission was definitely accomplished.  The intensity was great.  The characters and their different levels of acceptance of where they were was great.  The only major knock I can make against this movie is that it was simply too long.  This could have easily been 30 minutes shorter and there were various scenes that looking back were not necessary whatsoever.  

I would still recommend people checking this out.  It is a very good movie and could have been awesome if there wasn't such an overly long running time.
