Review of Fury

Fury (2014)
8/10
An energetic octane rush, but historically absurd.
14 January 2023
Where to even begin.... I don't make out to be a historian, but I take a keen interest in this time period, it's a fascinating, horrendous era, this .... doesn't give any historical fact or detail, it's basically a shoot 'em up movie which happens to be set during The Second World War.

It surprises me that they didn't have someone beating Hitler up, uppercutting Goebbels in a bunker action sequence.

The Second World War, Hollywood style, some white amazing looking action sequences throughout, it's incredibly atmospheric, you can almost smell the gunpowder and feel the tension.

I hate myself for saying it, but I love this film, it's Brad Pitt and Shia laBeouf both absolutely nailing it.

If you watch any reviews, or read many of the written reviews, you'd come away thinking this film wasn't worth your time, my advice would be to try it, but know what you're getting.

It's absurd, but it's so enjoyable.

8/10.
