“What’s most striking about Kathryn Bigelow’s “The Hurt Locker” isn’t its action sequences — which are low-key to begin with — but its tense quietness: This is a war movie that rarely goes “boom,” a salient choice considering that its central character is an explosives expert. Then again, perhaps the true subject of Bigelow’s movie isn’t war but human stress.” More»
