I liked the movie, Sir, a great deal but what really troubled me was how the TC forced the new driver to kill a German. I did not think it was right. SS or not. I know it happened but i was thinking this would be bad propaganda in today's I/O war against Russia and others on how we are today. I live in Canada and I read about Canadians going to military prison for mercy killings and to see them in this movie kill Nazi's just because really bothered me especially when I was doing the online required yearly Law of War certification. I was upset about that but the movie was great overall!

Fury was up there with movie The Emperor. I still think Apocalypse Now and Patton were the best and Kelly's Heroes the funniest.

Full Metal Jacket would have to be the closest representation of Marine Corps boot camp.

As a tanker, the tank battle scenes were amazingly accurate. Especially when it was dismounts vs armor. When Pitt’s tank is hit with a Panzerfaust at the beginning of the movie, my buddy and I both visibly cringed as the sound of the warhead hitting the as heard inside the vehicle was extremely accurate. We were both on the same tank in Iraq ‘03, and were hit with a RPG that penetrated the gun tube. The sound in the movie was identical to real life!! Extreme pucker factor moment.
