Über diesen Film

From visionary filmmaker Kathryn Bigelow, The Hurt Locker is an intense portrayal of elite soldiers who have one of the most dangerous jobs in the world: disarming bombs in the heat of combat. When renegade Sergeant William James (Jeremy Renner -- 28 Weeks Later, The Assassination of Jesse James) takes command of a highly trained bomb disposal unit, he frequently risks the lives of himself and those around him with his suicidal methods and a complete disregard for danger. Caught in the middle are his subordinates Sergeant J.T. Sanborn (Anthony Mackie - Half Nelson, We Are Marshall) and Specialist Owen Eldridge (Brian Geraghty -We Are Marshall, Jarhead), who can only watch as their leader descends further into addiction: an addiction towar.

Bewertungen und Rezensionen

A good story about a guy who can only feel alive when he's close to death, when he's home he wants to be back over there ☺ a story which speaks to you on an emotional level as well as a visual one, one of the best movies to come out of Hollywood in a long time, something new rather than the same old same old we usually get from a Hollywood afraid to step outside of the formula we are all getting so tired off.
