Hurt Locker- C+, B-.

A great story, not enough character development, the main "antagonist" shows up and never gets the chance to tell the audience how he got there.
Each little storyline/chapter is very intense but there is no connecting them to make it a cohesive story.

Disjointed and interesting, save your money and watch it on cable.

I had heard nothing but rave reviews about HL and am now convinced that most of what is produced and packaged for the masses is nothing more that a director's chance to make money and TRY to put out a message.

It wasn't an anti war movie, nor did it glorify war. It could have been a National Geographic/History/Military channel one-hour special.
