My Quick Thoughts: The Hurt Locker is about a special team whose job it is to disarm bombs during the Iraq War. Jeremy Renner plays a man who was assigned to lead the team after the original team leader dies in the middle of disarming a bomb. I thought this movie was good, but not as mind blowing (no pun intended) as a lot of people do. Sure it was full of suspense and action, but I could not relate to the main character at all. Usually in war films you can sympathize with the main characters, but I could not. This guy was totally irresponsible constantly putting his team in more danger than they already were. Like I said, this movie was still good because of the action and suspense, but I just can't relate and am not drawn to the super alpha male main character.
