Fury (2014)
Written and directed
by David Ayer this film stars Brad Pitt, Shia LaBeouf, Logan Lerman
and Michael Pena. April 1945, a young army typist is sent to be a
replacement crew member for a tank fighting in Germany.
Not a lot is
especially new or original about the story here but it navigates
through a number of familiar elements with out going too far into
cliché or melodrama. While the combat scenes are really gripping and
certainly put you inside the tank the story does not have much in the
way of thematic depth. Where the film is strongest is in the realism
it brings to the action sequences even if the final battle goes a
little beyond the believable.
4/5
