Directed by: Katheryn Bigelow
Starring: Jeremy Renner, Anthony Mackie, Ralph Fiennes, David Morse, Guy Pearce
Katheryn Bigelow’s film about an EOD team in Iraq couldn’t be any better. It’s real, gritty, raw and adrenaline filled. It’s a blockbuster on steroids, which is incredible considering its cast of relative unknowns and independent production value. However, this easily tops any of the blockbusters I’ve seen in the past five years in both action and quality. Jeremy Renner is splendid, Anthony Mackie is terrific, and there are plenty of great cameos by David Morse, Ralph Fiennes, and, my personal favorite, Guy Pearce. The film doesn’t have a lot to say, but it still speaks volumes. If you are looking for a film to get your heart racing and adrenaline pumping, this is a must see.
