Review of Fury (2014) by Theapplegnome — 03 Jan 2015

War is something no one wants to expedience. That’s the major message of Fury.

Four men and a tank, that’s Fury. We follow them during WWII, and it’s truly a moving movie. Norman is one of the main characters, and it’s so clear how the war changes him. That’s a deep aspect of Fury, and one of the most important. Logan Lerman is not a flawless actor, but he totally fits the role as Norman. Brad Pitt is on the other hand bad-ass. The greatest part of Fury is the action sequences, truly awesome. They might be too bloody and extreme but I really enjoy them. There’s no thoughtfulness is war, that’s one thing worth to remember while watching this movie, and the bloody scenes are part of the war. Without any extreme events wouldn’t this movie be so dramatic and realistic as it is. That’s why Fury is a great movie. The realistic action sequences are awesome, so much practical effects. It looks stunning. There are though some vague CGI at some places, which doesn’t look real. The best part of this movie is the first and the third act. The second however is boring and slow.

Fury is a good war movie. The third act is action-packed and the soundtrack gives the movie feeling and touch. But it’s less impressive than what I expected, I want more action and less talking.

Fury gets a 7/10.
