Im assuming you were born in 1985. Think you can agree that the mid to late nineties (and early 2000s) was a great time to grow up. The music, the movies, the innocence....ahhhhh take me back.
why does it concern you?
Fury: 2014 "David Ayer's tank drama brings us as close to an understanding of war as cinema can" said Robbie Collin.
I have no idea who Robbie Collin is but I tend to agree as this film has the ability to embroil you deep into the heart of the action like not many can.
Brilliant camaraderie and utterly distasteful banter from the tightly knit crew, who for a time turned their venom toward young norman, a replacement for one of their fallen.
The scene were they took on a lone Tiger tank was beyond immense gripping me firmly by the seat of my pants. This film spits grit by taking the viewer deep within the bowels of that Sherman-Can, with it's mission to neutralise the enemy with extreme prejudice with no quarter given. To conclude: terricific acting, a compelling story all stirred and folded together with the juiciest of ingredient that create the war movie . I scored it 8.85/10
In April 1945, the Allies are making their final push in the European theater. A battle-hardened Army sergeant named Don "Wardaddy" Collier (Brad Pitt), leading a Sherman tank and a five-man crew, undertakes a deadly mission behind enemy lines. Hopelessly outnumbered, outgunned and saddled with an inexperienced soldier (Logan Lerman) in their midst, Wardaddy and his men face overwhelming odds as they move to strike at the heart of Nazi Germany.
I'd be little good in a tank fight as a big thunder clap just smashed through my open comp-room window throwing me to my knees in abject fear. Looking really nasty outside. Jesus wept that one was close!
I don't think I would have stayed behind at the crossroads. Once Brad Pit said I could fook off I would have pegged it, as I have a thing about Crossroads being non conducive to health or wealth.great film, watched it for the first time earlier

I'm having a month of being more honest with myself so would just like to say I wouldn't have stayed at the Spartan Hot Gates either and would deffo have done one from the Alamo with the women, kids and sensible ones. Don't get me started on the Titanic .. bit of lippy, a nice flowery frock and into a lifeboat I go!
Just had a look and hadn't realised. The costumes and props were outstandingly real and many of the outfits in the film were based on real exhibits acquired from museums around the world.I have to agree with you on that one, i would of been off rather than waiting around.
Crazy they filmed alot of this in the UK

Another intersting snippet is this was the second time a genuine Tiger I tank hadf been used in the production of a WWII film. It features "Tiger 131" from the UK's Bovington Tank Museum, the only fully functioning Tiger I tank in the world.
At least no one would seem to know you and everyone would pass you by.I don't think I would have stayed behind at the crossroads. Once Brad Pit said I could fook off I would have pegged it, as I have a thing about Crossroads being non conducive to health or wealth.
I really liked Dunkirk.Never been a fan of Nolan outside of the 'Bats' trilogy and he even stretched my patience there.
Dunno what the big love-in is with him as all his films are pretty flawed.
