    This film defeated "Avatar" and became the big winner of Oscar of course. The film's thinking on war and life is the most delicate and profound in the Middle East theme in recent years. It is far more refined than the latter's traditional Hollywood story, even though the latter has epoch-making significance for technological updates. Kathryn Bigelow controls the tempo of the plot very well, with enough details to portray. I really like the photography of this film, and every shot has something to say.

    The impact and shock are well done, and the editing is also a bonus

The Hurt Locker quotes

  • Spc. Owen Eldridge: Aren't you glad the Army has all these tanks parked here? Just in case the Russians come and we have to have a big tank battle?

    Sergeant JT Sanborn: I'd rather be on the side with the tanks, just in case, than not have 'em.

    Spc. Owen Eldridge: Yeah, but they don't do anything. I mean, anyone comes alongside a Humvee, we're dead. Anybody even looks at you funny, we're dead. Pretty much the bottom line is, if you're in Iraq, you're dead. How's a fucking tank supposed to stop that?

    Sergeant JT Sanborn: Would you shut the fuck up, Owen, please?

    Spc. Owen Eldridge: Sorry. Just tryin' to scare the new guy.

  • Sergeant JT Sanborn: Now push it in.

    Sgt. Matt Thompson: I can't.

    Sergeant JT Sanborn: What do you mean you can't? Pretend it's your dick, man.

    Sgt. Matt Thompson: [laughs] How about I pretend it's your dick?

    Sergeant JT Sanborn: You'd never get it in if you did that.
