WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

During the final days of World War II, and as the Allies push deep into the heart of Europe, a hardened US Army sergeant nicknamed Wardaddy (Pitt) commands an army tank called “Fury” and the four brave men (LaBeouf, Lerman, Peña and Bernthal) riding along inside it. Outnumbered and outgunned by the resistant remains of the German army, Wardaddy and his crew face impossible odds if they are to strike at the very heart of Nazi Germany…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

A grand war epic which happens to mostly take place inside an army tank, Fury features a much-buzzed ensemble performance by its impressive cast (Logan Lerman, in particular, is reportedly getting some good feedback) and some A-grade filmmaking by Training Day scribe David Ayer.
