Reading/Watching/Listening/Loving

I’m in Oscar Watch Mode, and going strong. ALL THE WAR MOVIES!! My favourite part of this one is definitely when Sergeant James (Jeremy Renner) is standing in front of an aisle of cereal and you begin to realize that while everyone else was counting down the days to the end of their rotation, James counts down the days until he can return to his bomb-infested paradise. Overall, if you like movies about current and ongoing(ish) wars then you will like this movie. But let’s face it, if you don’t then the only reason to watch this is Kathryn Bigelow and the phenomenal acting and how completely different it is from every other war movie I’ve ever seen and yet somehow the same.
