Welcome back to Movie Recap. Today I'm gonna show you a 2014 American war film called,
Fury. Spoiler's ahead. Sit back, relax and enjoy the video.
The movie begins with a narration of the war of Nazi soldiers against the allied countries.
A Nazi soldier is riding a white horse and inspecting the remains of battle when he is
jumped and killed with Sergeant Don Collier, also known in war as Wardaddy . Wardaddy lets
the horse go and goes back inside the tank named Fury . Inside are his troops namely,
Boyd Bible Swan, Trini Gordo Garcia, and Grady Coon-ass Travis.
Coon-ass is fixing the when he blames Wardaddy for what happened to them.
They re all messed up and devastated by the death of one of their comrades when they re attacked.
The right timing for Coon-ass to finish fixing Fury, they head out of the battlefield.
Back in the camp of the allies, Wardaddy is greeted by Sergeant Binkowski.
After talking for a while, Wardaddy is approached by a soldier and asks where the
rest of the platoon are, but Wardaddy and his men are the only ones left.
Meanwhile, Bible, Gordo, and Coon-ass talk about Red, their fallen comrade. Wardaddy, then, arrives
and gives an order to them. Alone, Wardaddy is seen devastated by Red's death too. After a while,
he is approached by Private Norman Ellison. Norman introduces himself as Wardaddy's new assistant
driver and bow-gunner. Looking at Norman, Wardaddy cannot believe what he is hearing.
Norman Ellison just got in the army for eight weeks. Wardaddy tells him
to go to the rest of the troop, follows orders, and not get too close to anyone.
Norman finds the others fixing Fury. Gordo takes his bag and looks for a cigarette,
but only finds a book. The three ask him about his job in the army and intimidate him.
Then, Coon-ass orders him to clean the insides of Fury.
Norman, for the first time, sees the inside of a tank. He starts cleaning
the blood off when he spots a torn-off face. He immediately gets out of the tank and puke.
Meanwhile, Wardaddy is talking to other soldiers about their situation when an SS soldier prisoner
is brought into the camp. Wardaddy and the others attack the prisoner but he is stopped
by his comrades. He, then, tells Norman that he should kill every German soldier he sees. It turns
out that Norman hasn't killed anyone yet. Wardaddy gives him a gun and Coon-ass teaches him about it.
Wardaddy proceeds to talk to other soldiers about their next move.
Wardaddy will be the platoon sergeant for their mission. After the discussion of the plan,
they mount up and head out. On their way, they drive past people evacuating. Wardaddy warns
them to stay alert for hidden enemies among the people. Then, Norman notices someone from the tree
line but hesitates to shoot it. Unfortunately, this causes a successful ambush by the enemy.
A tank explodes and Norman sees a soldier burning and shooting himself to death.
Wardaddy immediately chases the enemy and kills them. The enemies who ambushed them
are just kids. Wardaddy gets back to Norman and scolds him for hesitating to kill the enemy. Now,
Norman carries the burden of someone dying because of his negligence.
Wardaddy takes the lead of the whole platoon and proceeds with the mission.
They reach their destination and a soldier greets them. The soldier takes Wardaddy to
Captain Waggoner. He's frustrated to know that they didn't send the sufficient number
of backup he asked, but he trusts Wardaddy so he's still somehow confident with him.
They discuss the mission to rescue the Captain's pinned-down soldiers in the enemy's territory.
Then, they gear up and proceed with the mission.
The platoon reaches the pinned-down soldiers and starts rescuing them.
Tanks in front, soldiers at the back. Then, the enemy start firing at them,
and a shoot-out broke out. The enemies have strong machine guns and anti-tank weapons.
Meanwhile, Norman is still not used in fighting. A soldier was about to shoot them and he
cannot shoot back because he's panicking while reloading the gun. Fortunately, Bible saves him.
Gordo scolds Norman, then, orders him to shoot the enemy lying on the ground. Norman doesn't want to,
thinking they re already dead, but Gordo insists on double-tapping them. Norman
breaks down and doesn't want to fight anymore. Wardaddy scolds him, and Gordo consoles him,
saying it's all part of the war. After a while, they successfully defeated the Nazi soldiers. A
soldier approaches a dying man and prays for him. Wardaddy talks to Norman about his mistakes. It
turns out that Norman is not trained for combat, he's just been pulled out and sent to Germany.
Then, other soldiers caught a Nazi soldier wearing an American jacket and toys with him.
Wardaddy stops them and orders Norman to kill the Nazis. When he refuses, Wardaddy wrestles
the revolver into Norman's hand, forcing him to pull the trigger. The Nazi dies with the revolver
in his hand, traumatizing Norman. Bible picks him up and they go back to the group. The three tell
Norman that even though Wardaddy is often hard, he's the main reason why their group is solid.
On their way to the nearby town, they see dead bodies hanging.
It's the German's who refuses to fight in the war. They arrive at the town and search
it for hiding German soldiers. They spot an old man and ask him where the soldiers are,
but he was shot as soon as he pointed where they are. Then, a shoot-out breaks out. In the end,
Wardaddy and his platoon successfully capture the town when the Burgermeister surrenders.
A bunch of kids and women, who's forced to fight the war was rescued, and they killed their leader.
Afterward, the soldiers celebrate their victory. Gordo and Coon-ass is flirting
with a German woman, taking her inside Fury, and consecutively having meat injection game with her.
Meanwhile, Wardaddy approaches Norman and commends him for killing the enemies. Norman, on the other
hand, responds with sarcasm. Wardaddy, then, takes him to an office full of dead people.
Talking about war ideals, Wardaddy wants to make Norman realize something.
When they step outside, Wardaddy spots a woman peeking from the window. He and Norman immediately
check the woman's apartment. In there, they find Irma and her younger cousin, Emma, hiding.
Wardaddy decides to settle there for a while, paying Irma two packs of cigarettes for a meal
and hot water so he can shave. While the women are preparing the food, they re all surprised,
including Wardaddy, to hear Norman plays the piano.
Emma walks to him and sing while he's playing. Then, Wardaddy urges Norman to make his way to
Emma, and the two go into the bedroom. Irma was about to stop them, but Wardaddy calmly stops her,
saying that she should let them enjoy it while they re young. Inside,
Emma and Norman share an intimate time. After a while, they re about to eat when Bible,
Gordo, and Coon-ass barge in. They say that a woman is waiting for Norman in the tank,
but as soon as they see Emma, they realize what just happened. Then, they,
especially Coon-ass, start bullying Norman and harassing Emma. But Wardaddy stops them.
All of them share a meal together when Gordo shares a story. Something is up and tension
is building up among the soldiers. Wardaddy warns them not to spoil his mealtime, but Gordo
continues the story about how to kill a horse. To kill a horse, you need to befriend it and gain its
trust, and then you kill it. Wardaddy warns him to shut up, but Bible and Coon-ass back him up.
Afterward, Wardaddy sarcastically thanks them for the talk and slams the table and
spits on Coon-ass. Gordo apologizes when a soldier arrives and calls for them.
They re ordered to capture and hold on to a crossroad, but this mission is dangerous because
they don't know what will they be facing. While preparing to leave, a German shell hits the town,
exactly the house of Irma and Emma. Norman rushes to her, and Coon-ass followed him.
He finds Emma dead, further traumatizing him, but this fuels his anger for the
Nazis. Coon-ass pushes him back to the tank, but he refuses. Then, Coon-ass
lets him hit him to let out his frustrations and pushes him back to the tank afterward.
The platoon heads out, Norman is still devastated because of Emma's death. Wardaddy talks to him,
saying that death is all part of being in the war. On their way to the crossroad,
they are ambushed. Enemy soldiers riding a Tiger tank attack them. The platoon is having
a hard time finishing the enemy. Unfortunately, the enemy is able to take out Sergeant Davis,
Sergeant Binkowski, and their men. Sergeant Davis was directly shot by the tank's canon in the head,
and Sergeant Binkowski burned to death. Fury, commanded by Wardaddy is now having
a standoff with the Tiger tank. With Wardaddy strategizing their attacks, they re able to
destroy the Tiger tank and kill the enemy soldier. Just like at the beginning of the movie, Wardaddy
and his troop are the only ones left. Wardaddy tries to notify his superiors of what happened
but is unable to do so because the radio was damaged. Stressed and devastated, Wardaddy, Bible,
Gordo, Coon-ass, and Norman just laugh off their situation and proceed to carry on the mission.
Fury reaches the crossroad but it got immobilized after stepping on a landmine.
The tank tread gets cut off and it will take a while to get fixed. Wardaddy orders Coon-ass and
Norman to check the nearby building. Inside the building, Coon-ass apologizes to Norman. After
finding nothing but a dead German soldier, they immediately head back to the troop. Then, Wardaddy
orders Norman to guard them from the high ground. While eating, Norman hears something. Looking
back, he's terrified to see a battalion of German soldiers marching their way.
He rushes off to notify Wardaddy and the others about the battalion coming. When Wardaddy
hears the chanting of the marching enemies, he recognizes them as the SS Battalion. Bible wants
to leave, but Wardaddy wants to stay. He insists that they must carry out their mission, but
Coon-ass points out that the five of them don't stand a chance against a battalion of enemies.
In the end, Wardaddy permits them to leave if they want to.
But he will stay and hold the crossroad because it is their mission, and as the platoon leader,
he can't just abandon it. Norman decides to stay, and one by one, the others stay as well. They ask
Wardaddy about his plan, then, he orders them to get the dead German soldier and burn it.
They also disguise Fury as a destroyed tank and hide inside. Taking into consideration
the limited amount of ammo they have, they wait for the right timing to attack.
Inside, while preparing their weapons, Wardaddy finds alcohol
and they share their last drink. Knowing that this could be their last moment as a troop,
Bible preaches about the verse he always thinks about. He is surprised when Wardaddy recited
the book and chapter where his favorite verse came from. They also give Norman the war name
Machine , because as Coon-ass says, he's a fighting, killing, and a sex-machine.
Afterward, Machine sees the enemy approaching their tank. He notifies the others and they
all gear up. The enemies surround Fury and when one soldier opens a hatch,
Machine shoots him and the fighting starts. In the battle of a battalion against five, this is the
longest night they ever had. They throw grenades at the enemies and blow up their tracks. They
also blow up the nearby building where numbers of enemy soldiers hide when the shooting breaks out.
The German soldiers start shooting back, but with Wardaddy's command, the five are looking
to be at advantage, killing many enemy soldiers. Unfortunately, they start running out of ammo.
Wardaddy plans to get out to get some ammo and orders Gordo and Machine to cover him.
They throw smoke grenades and the two pop out their hatch and cover Wardaddy as he gets the
ammo. As soon as he finishes collecting ammo, he orders them to get back inside.
He is about to get back inside as well but enemies manage to climb up the tank.
He fights them off but gets shot in the process. Luckily it's not a fatal wound. Bible patches
up his wound and they share another bible verse together. On the other hand, the German soldiers
bring out their panzerfaust. They plan to swarm the group with continuous attacks.
There is a brief silence echoing around, both troops are being careful with each other
especially the troop of Wardaddy because they have a limited amount of ammo left. Then, the enemies
start shooting them with panzerfaust and the five counter-attacks. Unfortunately, one enemy manages
to blow a hole in the side of Fury and it goes through Coon-ass, killing him. Bible cries in
agony, but Wardaddy orders him to straighten up because they re still in the middle of the war.
The four of them continue fighting, but there are too many German soldiers.
They shoot and throw grenades at them at the same time. After a while, they finally
ran out of ammo. All that's left to them are their hand weapons and Fury's .50 machine gun.
On the other hand, the Nazi soldiers know they re running out of bullets and plan to finish
them off. Back to Fury, the four prepares to get out and a shoot-out breaks out again.
Wardaddy positions himself in the machine gun, while the others are with their weapons.
Later on, Bible runs out of bullets and gets out to get one from a dead enemy.
Meanwhile, Gordo is about to throw a grenade but he's been shot.
The grenade falls off inside the tank, and he uses his own body to contain the explosion,
protecting Wardaddy and Machine. Now, there are only three of them against the German soldiers.
Outside, the Nazi whose Bible tries to steal his weapon from is still alive
and holds him down. He is about to get attacked by another enemy when Machine shows up and saves him.
The two get back inside the tank when the enemies throw smoke grenades. Then,
we see an enemy carrying a sniper, in camouflage, slowly crawling and approaching near Fury. Back
to Wardaddy, he's fighting off the enemies when he calls for Bible to give him a grenade.
But as soon as Bible pops out of the hatch, he is shot in the head by the sniper.
The sniper fires again and successfully hit Wardaddy this time.
Trying to secure the kill, he shoots him again but Wardaddy manages to get into the tank.
Inside, Wardaddy and Machine talk sincerely. Machine admits that he's scared, but so is
Wardaddy. Machine wants to surrender but Wardaddy tells him that they will torture him to death.
Outside, the enemy soldiers swarm the tank and drop stiel-hand-grenade.
With one last glance with Wardaddy, Machine escapes through the bottom hatch of the tank.
He tries to cover himself with mud to hide, but a young German soldier spots him.
Silently begging, the German soldier spares his life.
The next morning, he's awakened by the sound of a white horse passing by.
He gets back inside the tank and covers the dead body of Wardaddy. Hearing noises from the outside,
he gets Wardaddy's revolver and prepares to fight. But he's relieved to see that the one who opens
the hatch is an American soldier. Declaring that he's a hero, they bring him into an ambulance.
The movie ends with the shot of Fury, heavily damaged, while dead bodies of German soldiers
lying around, with Norman Ellison, now called Machine, as the only survivor.
