Iraq. Forced to play a dangerous game of cat-and-mouse in the chaos of war, an elite Army bomb squad unit must come together in a city where everyone is a potential enemy and every object could be a deadly bomb.

I thought it was a pretty badass movie. My roommate is in the army and was bitching about it the whole time it was playing though. He said the rangers are some bad dudes.

See i thought it was a badass movie as well. storyline and everything. BUT they say thats a bad example to how iraq is and what not. hmmmmmm

i thot it was awsome to, and i was watchin it wit my bro wich is in the army and started bitchin and complainin that is wasnt how they do it over ther but i still thought it was awesome

i thought it was great. It seemed like it is the most realistic war movie out there, but i've never been overseas so i'm no expert.
Normally when you see a sniper like saving private ryan or band of brothers, they are like pow pow and all the bad guys are dead. In hurtlocker though they were watching that bunker all day.
I think if you made a completely realistic experience in a movie, it would be kinda boring. That being said my favorite part is when they are doing the car bomb and the guys are filming it and you don't know what's about to go down or if they are bad guys or not. it was intense for me.
I'd hate to be put in that position because i would have started shooting. i'd rather be alive and make a mistake then be dead and have followed the rules. You aren't gonna be filming me and sending signals and stuff to other guys and me just stand around.
