The Hurt Locker


Joel rented this movie the other night. I wasn't very thrilled about watching another war movie....but turns out...Joel fell asleep before it was over and I couldn't quit watching it. It really grabbed me. If you haven't seen it...you need to. It's a great movie. I couldn't even begin to imagine what it would be like at war. I have seen a lot of war movies but this one seemed so realistic to me. I felt what they were feeling while watching the movie. It was deep....and the guys had been changed so much by war...that is became their normal....quite sad actually:-( Here is a little more info on the movie. Check it out!

An intense portrayal of elite soldiers who have one of the most dangerous jobs in the world: disarming bombs in the heat of combat. When a new sergeant, James, takes over a highly trained bomb disposal team amidst violent conflict, he surprises his two subordinates, Sanborn and Eldridge, by recklessly plunging them into a deadly game of urban combat. James behaves as if he's indifferent to death. As the men struggle to control their wild new leader, the city explodes into chaos, and James' true character reveals itself in a way that will change each man forever.
