Fury






Cast: Brad Pitt, Shia LaBeouf, Logan Lerman(Norman), Michael Peña,Jon Bernthal,Scott Eastwood
Director: David Ayer
Genre: War, History, Drama


Over rated, aint as catching as it should have! Nonetheless, relive the history from WWII


You may look forward to:


  • Logan Lerman, he is definitely the guy to look out for, unsung hero somebody! If the history is true, i have highest regard for this kid. How much it takes for a typist to fall into a war zone and start killing people, as well stick to a team in such circumstances and play along, isn't a thing for a coward. Very well played
  • Brad Pitt undoubtedly.  But i was expecting a lot more from him than merely this. He had this constant look throughout, barring one or two instances. But he was the only man standing tall and making various calls. So yes, he was important and he is Brat Pitt :)
  • Shia LaBeouf came out as a surprise in this role. Very unconventional from how we remember him :)
  • Supports from Michael Peña,Jon Bernthal and Scott Eastwood, were fine
  • The illustration of the war like situations back from the history, resurrecting old tanks, and recreating the entire set is commendable. How ugly and how intrusive life was during the World War is unimaginable, especially under the banner of Hitler, is no less than a nightmare, jitters you even today



What you can sleep over:

It has enough bombings and firings, enough violence to prove a war like situation. But not enough to keep you up



The dampeners you should be aware of:


  • Too very stretchy. Again, this could be shortened to 2 hours. Plethora of boring scenes with dialogues put me to sleep couple of times. I couldn't acknowledge a war movie as boring as this without much content to substantiate in the dialogues, nor presented in a manner to make it look interesting and touching
  • All the roles except that of Brad Pitt's and Logan Lerman, felt unevenly distributed. The other supporting actors, weren't meant to be looked upon as a support. They are meant to be looked upon as a team. Brad Pitt's dominance subdued their roles to a larger extent





My Rating: 3/5
