Line Break
Finally Netflix has answered the call and sent over The Hurt Locker in the mail. There is a huge buzz about this film so I had to check it.
You thought TNT knew drama, you were wrong. Hurt locker is intense starting with the first scene. The pace of this film is what keeps you in, it is a super uncomfortable and you never know when the next explosion happen. The movie is about a special military unit that defuses bombs in Iraq. The 3 characters fuel this film, you are concerned for all 3 well being. Jeremy Renner character is a master bomb defuser and all around madman getting his 2 subordinates in his unit into the worst possible scenarios on almost every mission. Anthony Mackie character is one of those dudes who keeps a count until his rotation is over, and towards the end you see him start to spiral into madness. Brian Geraghty character is the person who is having the worst time. War is literally driving him bat shit, and throughout the film you wait to see his melt down. The best part about this film is the intense atmosphere that lingers throughout the entire film, even in the most subtle scenes. The actors do a bang up job depicting the different faces of today’s military, whether that face be positive or negative. This is my generations war movie about a war in my time.
Final verdict, this movie should be in the Oscar race.
