Review by Desert Cities Guides Movie Guide Nick Jones
Just when I thought the dramatizations of the war in Iraq were finished and unsuccessful, along comes “The Hurt Locker,” a powerful film that follows an Army bomb squad in modern day Iraq. The film opens with a statement, “War is a drug.” It certainly is for Staff Sgt. William James (Jeremy Renner), who, on a day-to-day basis, is disarming bombs while under enemy fire.
