I would recommend that the movie be watched because it is a good watch undoubtedly. But it’s not a Saving Private Ryan or any other war classic that it is feverishly being made out to be.

Fury may not be everyone’s cup of tea but it serves as a great reminder of the devastation wars bring with them…

Fury is unflinching in its depiction of war from the get-go to the point of being unsettling. As unrelenting as the iron tracks of a tank crushing everything in its path, it is indeed a juggernaut of action – tank against tank and tank against artillery. It is also surprisingly sophisticated in terms of the drama and interplay between all of the characters. Largely devoid of jingoism, not since Saving Private Ryan has there been a World War II film that looks so convincingly ‘real’.

For those who like war movies, Fury is eminently watchable and even as a action film, it succeeds.

“Fury” is technically brilliant, packed with military action and drama, but as a narrative, it is thematically stunted, riddled with cliches and oft-seen scenes.

Despite its lengthy running time, you never once look at your watch impatiently, which is a huge achievement for the film. It keeps you emotionally involved with the fate of its characters, keeps you hooked till the very end and gives you food for thought when you leave the theater. Add to that great performances and some badass action sequences involving tanks, and there’s a great time to be had this weekend at a cinema near you.

It truly is a cinematic moment worth experiencing when a group of soldiers who are just a bullet away from death chant “Best job ever!”. Fury is undoubtedly a hardcore, serious film that will stun you with its power-packed presentation. With stupendous performances by A-list actors, this movie is definitely recommended for one and all.
