Point Break director, Kathryn Bigelow's intensely suspenseful Iraqi war film, The Hurt Locker is an adrenaline driven masterpiece that will leave you drained as the end credits begin rolling.
The beautifully detailed cinematography, hauntingly disturbing performances (particularly Jeremy Renner), well-timed action pieces and unsettling avant-garde score from Marco Beltrami & Buck Sanders hypnotize you right up until the end.
It's angry, loud, desolate and so very, very foreign to the happy little lives we live behind our interwebs. Highly recommended.

I like how the 3 big name actors had less than 5 minutes screen time. Ralph Fiennes was particularly enjoyable for the 2 minutes we hardly knew him.
I always thought it was kind of neat they showed up and "left".
SMALL budget independent film, being filmed way out in the middle of nowhere but the script was good enough to get them to do it anyways.
