I bought this as a gift and they loved the movie!!

The resolution on this movie is bad it doesn’t look like a 4k movie

I can't believe a military man be so easy going about things happing around him.

came with code already redeemed And damage on the steelbook

Had this movie on DVD but wanted it on Blu Ray. My local store had it available. Purchased online & picked it up an hour later.

This not your standard by the numbers war film, Hurt Locker is a very disturbing look into the Iraqi war involving engineers from a demolitions group that face death on a day to day basis. These Unsung hero's of a senseless war expose themselves to IED's in war torn cities of Iraq. Jeremy Renner is just such one of the newly arrived demolitions engineers to his unit in Iraq and immediately alarms his fellow soldiers with his haphazard style of disarming hidden caches of explosives designed to kill American soldiers. It is obvious that Sergeant First Class William James (Renner) has emotional as well as mental issues causing him to act out in irrational ways in dealing with his fear of death almost like he is tempting fate, purposely exposing himself to danger just to spite the enemy while also getting a rise out of his unit. This film was nominated for 9 academy awards, taking 6 of those 9 for good reason. To my recollection this really is the first serious film dealing with the Iraq war in a fashion that shows all that this fable called glory in conjunction with war is nothing more than fallacy. I recommend this film for all the very young due to gore, language & depictions of violence. Video - Excellent 10/10 absolutely demo material. Blacks solid, colors accurate. No filtering. Audio - Excellent 10/10 panning, discrete sounds, no surging, crystal clear dialog. Bass is deep this is what HD Sound should sound like! Supplements - Are a bit light but adequate for me. Audio Commentary with Director Kathryn Bigelow and writer Mark Boal The Hurt Locker: Behind the Scenes (HD, 12:30) Image Gallery (HD, 23:30) If you haven't seen a great war film since Blackhawk Down then buy this Bluray you will not be disappointed!

I walked into Best Buy today to buy "The Other Guys" and saw this movie and I'm a sucker for war movies. I had no clue what to expect when I bought it, but I've heard that it's a great movie. I just got finished watching it on blu-ray and I thought the movie was amazing. It had suspense, some action, and kept me on the edge of my seat for most of the movie. It had great actors and a great setting. My only complaint was that it wasn't the clearest movie I've ever seen. The slow motion scenes were very clear, but not the rest of the movie. They could have put a grainy effect on the camera though (as this is common in some war movies). I would recommend this movie to anyone. Loved it, go buy it!

Despite what you might have read from other reviews, this movie in my own opinion is great. My guess is that the people that got this movie expected it to be a bunch of shooting and gore which it isn't. This movie has suspense, i fyou want a suspense movie i highly reccomend this, It's not exactly a horror movie, but by all means has the suspense of one. And this DID deserve best film of the year. I mean really, Avatar was cool, but it was to long and wasn't as great as people said it was seeing it 5 times. (I saw it in iMax 3D so i didn't have to see it again) But this movie although it doesn't have the constant shooting of other war movies it has crazy suspense of a bomb defuser (which is the plot, his jobs of defusing bombs) Overall this movie will keep you hooked, although it does have a kind of slow start. Hope this helps anybody

If you're looking for nonstop action then DO NOT buy this movie. The Hurt Locker is a dramatic story about soldiers who detonate and disarm bombs over in Iraq. There are some explosions but not many. But this movie will make you hang on the edge of your seat throughout wondering if and when bombs are going to detonate. The opening scene sets the tone and is exciting and emotional. I myself have not been to war for our country, but I have many friends who have and they assured me that this movie is pretty dead on. If you want to get in the heads of these men then see this movie.

from the opening scene, i was absolutely hooked...it was very intense and several scenes were nail-biters...it is a very different spin on a war movie...it isn't the usual combat-oriented war movie...it shows you what i can only imagine to be an extremely accurate portrayal of the pressure packed process of disarming hidden bombs...the car bomb scene had me sweating almost as much as the characters in the film...check it out for yourself, you won't be disappointed...

Great war movie. It shows the psychological stress soldiers are under every day and how each individual person deals with it in different ways. It has a very limited soundtrack which helps give you more of an isolated feel. There is never a dull moment in this film. Each scene has its own tenseness. I would have like to seen more DVD Extras and a digital CD so I could download it to my EVO.

What a wonderful and suspenseful movie. Every scene is beautifully shot and the camera work is wonderful. The blu ray is great and the sound is amazing. I few scenes really rocked my system and one scene almost popped one of my speakers off the wall. Awesome. The sniper scene is so tense I feel like I am going through the same fear. Love love love this movie.

I really enjoyed this movie. It's a hard-hitting story that gives the audience an idea of what it might really be like to be part of the war on terrorism. Sounds amazing on my 5.1 system. First 20 minutes of the movie shook the house!

Good deal for 4K steel book compare to regular blu-ray. All the steelbook should enforce this protection.

Everything is great in this movie, cinematography, the story to the movie just everything we could sit here all day and talk about whats so great about this movie. You will not be disappointed if you purchase this movie !

Interesting treatment of this subject matter. I'm certain there are more than a few veterans of the sandbox that can relate to this film in total or in part. Quality production!

I cannot wait to watch this movie yet I am getting very excited to watch it this saturday on my blu ray player. By the way I think hurt locker is a very good movie though by the way.

This movie beyond brilliant. It has to be seen! Like I said in the subject, I don't care what edition you get, DVD or Blu-ray, just get it because "The Hurt Locker" is freakin' amazing.

My brother is an EOD tech- he said this is EXACTLY what life is like on the front line of bomb detection, and bomb removal. The danger factor will keep you on the edge of your seat.
