I know I'm three years late to this one, but I was off this week, and in between cleaning and prepping for Thanksgiving, I bought Fury from Amazon for eight bucks. I had heard good, but not great, things about it, but after watching it twice, I think it's one of the more underrated war movies I've ever seen. There were some obvious tropes (new soldier thrown into a grizzled unit, war-weary commander, incompetent junior officers), but the dynamic of the crew was amazing. It even made me like Shia LeBouf for a few hours.
