October Movie Preview Network
Here’s a Foker On Film pick of the new releases out this week.
FURY (15) In Cinemas October 22
Starring: Brad Pitt, Scott Eastwood, Logan Lerman, Shia LaBeouf, Jon Bernthal and Michael Peña
Directed by: David Ayer
Genre: Action, War Drama
Movie synopsis
April, 1945. As the Allies make their final push in the European Theatre of war. A battle-hardened army sergeant named Don ‘Wardaddy’ Collier (Brad Pitt) commands a Sherman tank and her five-man crew on a deadly mission behind enemy lines. Totally outnumbered and outgunned, Wardaddy and his men Boyd ‘Bible’ Swan (Shia La Beouf), Grady ‘Coon Ass’ Travis (Jon Berthnal, Shane from The Walking Dead) and Trini ‘Gordo’ Garcia (Michael Pena, End of Watch) to name but a few, face overwhelming odds in their heroic attempts to strike at the heart of Nazi Germany.
Brad Pitt plays yet another WW2 commander in a toned down version of his character Lt. Aldo Raine from Quentin Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds. It appears that if you want to be part of the tank crew you have to have a catchy nickname. Look out for Clint Eastwoods boy, all grown up. The movie was also shot on location in the UK.
