On The Hurt Locker
Kathryn Bigelow's "The Hurt Locker" is recommended viewing. And I am not a fan of war. Watch it, if you don't believe in war and everything remotely associated with war. Watch it, if you can get past the needless killing of those who are innocent and a war that no one wants to be involved in fighting. If you can realize that radical fundamentalists want to destroy you and believe in what they are doing, then watch "The Hurt Locker" and the men and women who are out there daily, regardless.
A brave, courageous statement about the people who sign up for/end up in serious hazardous duty and a snapshot about the toll it takes on those who do. Bigelow's vision and direction for the film is perfect, she brilliantly places the viewer smack in the middle of the action by using multiple hand-held cameras. It's real, it's gritty, and deserves every bit of recognition.
