I thought it was a very good movie and wife thought it was boring. So what did everyone else who has seen it think of it? I totally get the comments about it being too unbelievable and especially near the end when Brad is on the 50cal but I still thought it was an interesting look into WWII battle from the perspective of a regular soldier.

It was very believable, as far as the .50 there's precedent of it happening in real life...
Fury is basically a lot of individual instances of what could happen over the course of 3-4 years of war in  large group condenced and consolidated to one crew and 2 hours.

I enjoyed it with several friends (some former tankers). Very well done. The action is brutal and very realistic. 5 stars.

Just got back. I think it takes things at a different level than Private Ryan and others, shows the really ugly side of war at times. Almost has an element from Das Boot, the concept of being trapped inside a metal coffin with nowhere to go and just having to grit your teeth and hope the next round doesn't have your name on it.

Glad to see I wasn't only one who liked it. The violence was appropriate to me but wife didn't like the Gore. It reminded me how grateful we should be for our soldiers past and present.

The wife was out of town so I decided to catch the late movie last night by myself. I thought it was a great movie. It showed how war can turn a boy into a man.

He didn't ruin this one. Just got back. I thought it was a great flick. Too bad the Eurotrash next to me decided to MST3000 in Euro-Spanglish through the whole fucking movie.

I really liked it.  Showed the simultaneous ugliness and humanity of war.  The george lucas-esque special effects tracer fire didn't work for me, but that by no means detracted from the movie itself.  It'll go down as one of the best war movies of all time.

Yeah, I am no fan and hardly recognized him. I liked the movie except for one part very near the end involving an SS soldier committing a very non typical act especially considering what had just occurred. Other than that, I enjoyed it.

Me the wife and my dad watched. Pretty intense overall felt kind of drained afterwards . The tank fight was the best part imo. Just overall great some nit picky things like everyone terrible teeth that was annoying and not accurate. Where was eastwoods son I didn't seem to receive him.

Saw it tonight.  Good movie, would pay to watch again.

You'd think they would grab the ammo before the final battle but that was my only wtf moment.

I enjoyed the movie. As a former Tanker, I cant imagine being outgunned like that.

My issue was pulling the charging handle on the ma deuce palm down, its a hollywood fuck up that their technical adviser should have caught.

That would be Lt. Col O'Brian



With many
casualties and ammunition running
                          low, Lt. Col. O'Brien refused to leave the
front lines. Striding up and down the lines, he fired at the enemy with a
pistol
                          in each hand and his presence there bolstered
the spirits of the men, encouraged them in their fight and sustained
them in
                          their heroic stand. Even after he was
seriously wounded, Lt. Col. O'Brien refused to be evacuated and after
his pistol ammunition
                          was exhausted, he manned a .50 caliber
machinegun, mounted on a jeep, and continued firing. When last seen
alive he was standing
                          upright firing into the Jap hordes that were
then enveloping him. Some time later his body was found surrounded by
enemy he
                          had killed His valor was consistent with the
highest traditions of the service.

I don't find it as unbelievable as the fact they made it that far.... Every other guy marching with the SS had a Panzerfaust over their shoulder.

I loved the movie and will be buying it for my war movie collection. I would like to go see it again in the theater actually.

Well, they built over 6 million of them supposedly, and I'm imagining by 1945 there were not a lot of troops left to spread them around.

yep. there were times where i was just almost overwhelmed with the scene. it takes war in a much more brutal way.....basically like the dude yelling momma on saving private ryan, but keeping that level of HOLY FUCK get me outta this mess for longer.

 



it took me a bit to process it all. shia lebouf (sp?) ain't no kid actor no more.




loved it. grabbed me more that SPR. SPR was damn good, but Fury was just so much grittier. tensions were high, even in the dining room scene. just wow. I WILL buy that when the DVD comes out.

I find a well placed "SHUT THE FUCK UP" does a pretty good job of voicing your displeasure... It's obviously more appropriate in a movie without kids but last time I used it tactically in a slower scene, the people around the "Loud Talkers" clapped and quietly cheered. After the movie was over, the "Loud Talkers" quickly made hasty exit...

I had to sit through 20 minutes of previews before the movie started.

The film kind of reminded me of GI Combat comic books.

Maybe it's because the guys go through a whole bunch of different scenarios in a really short time span.

I didn't mean it was unbelievable there were so many Panzerfausts. My point was that there were so many(Panzerfausts) at that crossroad in the movie, the tank would have been hit(multiple times) long before they(tank crew) ran out of ammo and Brad had to climb out to fire the .50.
