Best Picture? You’re Goddamn Right It Is

“The rush of battle is often a potent and lethal addiction, for war is a drug.”

This is the opening quote to this years favourite with the bookies – The Hurt Locker – to take out the Best Picture gong at the Academy Awards. Trust me, by the end of the movie you will know exactly why the film chooses these words to begin it’s story.



After just coming from the cinema, I felt equally compelled to inform the fans of Battle Royale With Cheese to go watch this movie, as I was to watch Kathryn Bigelow’s soberingly powerful Iraq war drama.

Centred around a bomb disposal unit in Baghdad, this film is so intense it will have you squirming around in your seat like your favourite football team 1-0 up in a cup final with a few minutes to go… Except in the cinema your like this for 131 minutes !

Raw, gritty, superbly edited with cinematography of the highest possible standard and well acted in naturalistic fashion. Plans this weekend ? Cancel them and hot foot it down to your local cinema.

This movie is DYNAMITE, literally.
