I watched it finally. Very good movie. Acting was really really good. Shia impressed me. Shane from the Walking Dead played a good crazy person. Pitt was outstanding.

I was a little self medicated so i dont remember much. Saw tanks run over people and shoot people. Fun times.

The ending is ridiculous, cartoonish, and typical of bad American-made WWI films.

I saw it once at the theater, wouldnt watch it again.

Probably worth a single viewing, if you like war movies, but don't get your hopes up.

As a retired Abrams tanker. Spent about 10 yrs as a tank commander, I can attest that it is a pretty good movie. Best tank scenes since The Beast.

Fury was freaking awesome! Not necessarily a "great movie" but a damn entertaining one. I thought all the main actors did a great job as well, particularly Jon Bernthal (Grady "Coon arse"). Brad Pitt was solid and so was Lebouf. "Norman" did a great job of putting you in the moment and making you wonder how far a human being can take things.

Not even gonna lie, its a harsh movie to watch at points, just really rough. But honestly it is a great movie, go ahead and watch it.

It was okay
Definitely a different perspective with what tank crews were assigned to do and the challenges they rolled into
Would have been nice to get something with more historical value or truths to it but it put into perspective what living in a tank for long stretches in a war like that with inferior equipment if the Germans had more sophisticated equipment. Maybe had the Germans tried to get atomic bomb technology over better tanks the whole world would be a lot different right now

The movie was super fricking awesome right up until the last fight and ending. That part was really dumb. Still a good watch, though.

Of course the Fury tank was A.)
M4A2E4 - Upgraded with Torsion Bar suspension; never put into production and that's why it smoked.



I don't know where you got your information, but it's wrong. The "Fury" tank was an M4A3E8.

And, I agree with all the people that said it was ridiculous. But that didn't take away from me enjoying the movie. "Patton", which I love. The movie not the guy. Was riddled with inaccuracies.

great movie, it was a war movie and more about just action. I felt like you actually made a connection with the Characters well at-least the two main guys. It was also one of those movies that it ends and you are left speechless. There will be some people who say it was unrealistic no way one immobile tank could do that much damage. It's a movie guys calm down.
