Fury
This really tricked me into being another fascist interpretation of Saving Private Ryan, bit it’s a much more humane and hopeful film. Doesn’t reach the technical heights of the D-Day landings, but the again, what does?
The cast is really well chosen, they play their parts to a T. Poor Jon Bernthal, he’s always type cast as the asshole, but at least it’s not like Sicario. The guy from Percy Jackson is a perfect typist, and Shia LaBeouf as Bible is just incredible, as usual. Michael Peña is always the goofy sidekick, of course he does the same here. Brad Pitt does his best Inglourious Basterds impression.

This is my place for ramblings about sequences of images that exploit the human visual limitation know as persistence of vision.
