Fuy
4/14: The first twenty minutes of Fury did force me to turn the TV off four times.

It's so bad, corny, and saccharine that I couldn't stop rolling my eyes. Afterwards, the pace was somewhat picked up to get to the heart of the story. However, it's annoyingly manipulative as there were so many leaps in logic that the entire story seemed farfetched.

The court case incensed me, hence the title Fury. It had nothing to do with the facts or how I felt about either side. Rather, my intelligence was being constantly insulted. I thought of another film that's similar, and it's M. To my no surprise, Fritz Lang also directed it. The ending was horrendous and thus a prime example of pure Hollywood hokum.

All in all, Fury is awful enough to deserve a place in my Worst Films list.
