The Hurt Locker.

Yes, this is a surfpage, but many of us like to discuss non-surf related issues amongst fellow surfers. Here's the place to do it. Registration is required.

All that remains are reality TV stars.

Bro, if PC was as rad as the "Jersey Shore" we'd all be there, living La Vita Pazza....Bro.

I enjoyed the movie alot, it was very intense like you said and yet it was not glamourised warfare like I imagined the position the movie might take(ie going to strip clubs, hooking up with hookers, doing drugs, etc) which I know goes on a lot but it was nice to see the story from the eyes of a pure adrenaline junkie. The ending was very realistic also and sad.

I thought the very last scene turned it into an extended recruitment video.
before the last five minutes I'd give it four stars.

From what I hear, Restrepo is WAY better (not to say the Hurt Locker is bad, but that this film is far more accurate and realistic):

Loved it. But still can't believe that hootch had anything to do with point break.
The service here sucks.

First question: why does this movie have its own thread? I watched it and thought it was good.

5 Alarm for sure. Had to rub one out during her oscar award acceptance speech. Cameron looked like the dough boy.
