Review of The Hurt Locker (2008) by Christopher S — 30 Apr 2013
The Hurt Locker is an impressive engaging, incredibly detailed and brilliantly written and acted war film that takes a perspective not seen before in other films like it. The action is thorough, frenetic and engaging so much that it holds the dramatic aspects of the film together so well.
Jeremy Renner delivers a great performance amongst his very capable cast, and Kathyrn Bigelow is a mastermind of creating a gripping and suspenseful war thriller. Beneath it all is the political and social commentary on America's attitudes during the War on Terror that America needs to be shown.
It is a solid epic of film and is my favourite war film to date.
