I watched it, it lived up to the good reviews.

I as well.

One of the darker movies I've seen. I thought it was darker than the Pacific even. And SPR.

Glad to see the Tiger moving about, that scene was well put together.

I saw it tonight.  I also thought it was pretty good.  I was particularly impressed by Shia LaBeouf's performance.  I haven't liked him, or his offscreen shit, any time before, but he was actually quite good.

All you saying this is dark need to watch 9th Company.

Shia Lewhatever's acting was pretty good.



The action was fun, kinda unrealistic, but not so unrealistic that it sucked.



The Bible quoting characters weren't caricatures or the usual crazy religious people, which was refreshing.



The scene where the young frau got arty'd was supposed to be dark, but I thought it was hilarious.

Pretty intense, dark film. I thought it was excellent. Obviously, it wasn't perfect (what is?) but overall I liked it.

Meh.  Dumb movie.

"Hey!  There's a Tiger!  Let's all charge head first into it so it can pick us all off one at a time!"  {CUE DRAMATIC MUSIC}

Or better yet:

Four hours into the final firefight, the SS decide to all sit down in neat rows while the officer paces back and forth in front of them preaching "VE MUST VIN THIS VIGHT!!!".  Because that's what you do in the middle of a firefight.  

Then, they all jump and grab their rocket launchers because oh hey, we didn't think to use those in the first four hours of the fight.  

Fury is just more Hollywood Tripe for people that feel but don't think.

Saw it, liked it a lot.  I don't think comparing this to SPR is fair to either movie.



The tank on tank battle was intense.

Guess not.

Can't say I enjoyed it much at all.

The tank battles were well done, but in general I believe our soldiers of WWII (my grandfather and father in law included) were far better men than portrayed in that film.

Band of Brothers was a masterpiece. Fury, sought to portray a more gritty style of tank warfare, but ended up making virtually the whole tank crew (and American Soldiers) look like a band of psychopaths.  

Did I mention I didn't really care for it?

I saw it yesterday, my takeaway is:

Brad Pitt saw Saving Private Ryan and determined that this fucking time not everyone was gonna die because of some cowardly clerk.

The grease gun tutorial was excellent, "Cover up, you're killin', cover down, you're not".

Hard for me to hate Shia Le Douche as much as I did before this movie.

I don't think you understand what they were tasked with doing. They were SUPPOSED to stop that SS group. That was their mission.

I know.  Like I said, "Hollywood."  I'm just happy they got the 131 for the movie.  They definitely conveyed the, "Oh Shit, a Tiger," feeling.

Where were they going to go? The only way to kill that Tiger was to get behind it.  It would have picked them off if they had done anything else.

Ok, fine. But why no infantry support? They could have integrated infantry better into the movie and still maintained the ending scene.

What is your opinion of David Ayer's other films? I've had problems with his story lines in some, but I've never walked away un-entertained, or saying, Man, that movie wasn't worth it.

Glad to hear it!  It looked like it was gonna be good from what I saw in the ads.  I came across a post here a few weeks back that said it was awful, but it seemed like the OP was nitpicking.  I try to go into movies with an open mind and try not to nitpick any technical things that I may notice.

Yeah, even just considering the frag from the two grenades basically in his lap, and ignoring the concussion effect.
