>>715403950Fury was much better as a drama than an action movie imo. Hollywood writers always love to have a big dramatic climax but this movie would be better without it.
If I could play script doctor I'd have it so you never actually see any Germans die in the last battle, you just see tracers flying in directions, a few near miss panzerfausts, and everyone scrambling to find out where the enemy is. Then have guys getting picked off one by one, so you never really know if the crew is winning or not. Really embrace the confusion and anxiety. Still have Norman survive at the end with the guy showing mercy.
There is a lot of silliness throughout that could be easily fixed but was sacrificed for a "cooler shot", but that I could forgive mostly because the atmosphere was done so well.
