A lot of people dont realize, but this entire movie takes place in 1 day. Sun up to sun down and the horse that wakes Norman up is the same horse at the beginning.
I've seen this movie probably 10x and never noticed that! Crazy how the white horse keeps showing up when there's all this death around. Almost like it symbolizes 1 of the 4 horseman of the apocalypse in the book of Revelation. The pale horse represents death
@@lw3918wtf is your point ? It's a movie about a tank crew in WW2, not a fucking documentary... Smfh. Btw War Daddy was a real tank commander , the names of his men have been changed, as well as the name of his tank. It was really called "In the mood" if they didn't change the story it would be a slow fucking movie... War is 85 % being bored 15% being scared shitless...
You can walk on anti-tank mines. They're either activated with magnets or very heavy pressure. These aren't like video game mines they're dealing with in that scene
@@LeviBulger well it really depends on the mine... If it's a pressure switch... And the plate was not set correctly than even as low as 45kg can set it of...
How much did Norman change in 1 day? How different were Gordo and the rest before doing 3 years of this? THAT is the underlying point of this movie, in my opinion.
"If someone in a foxhole tells you that they aren't scared. They're either a fool or a liar." "Bravery isn't the absence of fear. It's being afraid and continuing with the mission anyway."
I was deployed 5 times as a navy Corpsman(combat medic). Twice to Afghanistan and 3 times to Iraq so i have seen more then my share of dying. I do agree with you hearing soldiers admit they are scared is quite rough. But what I found to be absolutely gut wrenching thatbtears at mynsoul even now just thinking about it now was hard-core marines that were grown men crying out for their moma's in their last moments on earth. You hear that once and it's a kind of thing that will haunt your dreams until the day you die.
Most anti-tank mines during WW2 were magnetic. Steel tracks would pull on a magnetic cap inside the mine detonating it. In theory, a human stepping on it would not detonate the mine. Anti-personel mines are spring loaded. Some, like the bouncing betty, would even fly up at the height of the chest or head and then detonate.
Betties were worse than that. Most of them detonated at crotch level. Having an AP mine that intentionally takes out your junk is just a different kind of cruel.
@steelionx9255 if they take a war movie for what it is which is a story about the sacrifices made by soldiers and the bond between brothers in arms then yes. But if it's taken as just an action flick then no and the message is wasted upon them.
@@VorchaKali when i was like 6 or 7 my dad showed me saving private ryan and band of brothers, at the time i never completely understood them. but it got me into call of duty and i played almost every call of duty till then by 2014. but we watched saving private ryan every year since then until about 2015 or 16 (i was born in 05) after watching it so much i had only then understood not only what i saw happened to real people (and worse) but after that i non stop asked my dad for war movies and shows to watch even to this day. and yet i feel like even if you are a civilian like myself, even if your not the same after watching a war movie, you'll still never truly know what our veterans have done for us.
@@i4Clips I joined the army in 2003 and spent my years playing those types of games. After watching Band of Brothers and other war movies when In the Army it hits way different. The likely I get I get put into a situation like this is rare, but I will be in combat sooner than later and I couldn't watch anymore before I was deployed to Iraq.
I always tell people that the Fury crew is exactly how men act in combat. The dynamics and personalities of the crew are extremely accurate for a small, cohesive unit. You have the strong, unmovable leader (War Daddy); the quiet, stoic guy (Gordo); the spiritual ("religious") voice of reason (Bible); the all-out a-hole, but guy that gets the job done regardless of what people think about him (Grady); and the new, timid guy being molded into a product of his environment. THIS movie is an excellent example of how men act in war. The white horse, to me, symbolizes the purity of life in war. It also symbolizes the brutality that man can do to each other, but the empathy and gentleness of man towards beings besides man. Side note: As for the scene where Machine shoots the German soldier in the back at the behest of War Daddy - the German soldier isn't eligible for prisoner of war (POW) status. This is based on the American soldier finding the German wearing a U.S. soldiers coat; under the Geneva Convention it is prohibited to make use of the "......insignia or uniforms of the adverse Parties while engaged in attacks.....or military operations". It's also referred to as "Perfidy".
@@yohnny8839 - good point. I knew the Geneva convention was enacted in the 1860’s, but I had to look up the uniform piece. Apparently it was enacted until 1949. Good catch!
At the end when that young German soldier saw Norman and didn’t say or do anything because a lot of young Germans were drafted and forced into war, he didn’t want to be there anymore than Norman did. According to the history of WW2 not all Germans were Nazis.
So, this movie is set in the spring of 1945, by which time the word had gotten out about the Malmedy massacre, and, while it wasn't policy, there were a lot of Americans who would simply shoot SS men rather than take them prisoner, and plenty of COs who looked the other way when they did.
'Fury' is about as historically-accurate as a Happy Meal box, but the outstanding performances - particularly John Bernthal as 'Coonass' - make it exciting and very compelling. The thing that's important about Norman is that, as frightened as he is, he never (apart from one early freeze-up) refuses to fight. In the scene where he finds part of Red's face in the tank, he dives out to puke, but then he climbs right back in. You can be brave and scared at the same time.
It's a fairly accurate movie, more so than the vast majority. If it was 100% accurate people would stop watching out of boredom because guess what war is mostly boring until it's not. Then it goes back to boring.
@@jefforymitchell5697 it really is accurate. It’s not 100% but it is very close. It’s one of the more accurate war films. I would like to know what parts you think aren’t accurate. I’m curious.
A great WW2 movie is HACKSAW RIDGE. It's a true story that captures the violence in fighting the Japanese. It's probably the only movie that had to tone down what the main character actually did because no one would believe it.
Not necessary. Even when you DON'T use tracers, flashes will still be there because of the fire inside the barrel of a gun that propels the projectile, and the sole purpose for which soldiers use flash-eliminators/flash-hiders to prevent muzzle flash and risk being spotted by enemies. And a flash can also be there because of the projectile scraping against the walls of the barrel, but they're more of sparks than a flash.
@@bootstrapbaron2931 I am not talking about flashes at the barrel, I am talking about flashes illuminating the path of the bullets. Why do you think they use tracers? Some reacters comment something to the effect that it looks like they are shooting Star Wars blasters or lasers and I think that is because of the tracers not muzzle flash.
The ending is somewhat based on the true story of the WW1 British tank "Fray Bentos", which got stuck in the mud and was then attacked by German infantry for over 60 hours. Eventually the crew escaped with one man dead and seven wounded out of the nine man crew.
Typical Hollywood, take a story that happened to Allies and substitute them for Americans. Thanks to Hollywood most Americans think that the USA suffered the biggest losses in bomber crews, dropped the most bombs, put the majority of troops on the beaches in D-Day, provided everything for the invasion, captured an Engima then broke the codes and that they had a special forces capability. The truth doesn't sell tickets in US cinemas.
Also based on Audie Murphy. He was pissed that the Germans killed his friend so he hopped up and manned the .50 on a burning Sherman Tank and stopped a German attack by himself.
There was a real Tank commander named Lafayette Pool who wore the nickname War Daddy. He was probably the best badass tank commander in the Army. Every member of his crew had a nickname. The Shean tank we see in the movie is a real tank from WW2 and its real name is Fury.
I believe the white horse that shows up in the beginning & end when there's all this death around symbolizes 1 of the 4 horseman of the apocalypse in Revelation. The pale horse in Revelation represents "death"
Ladies as I mentioned in the previous movie those choices are all winners very cool movies regardless of topic.. Cool factor.. Great for reacting too / You can't see bullets those were meant to be tracer rounds
The unit they saved pinned down was Bravo Company 3rd Battalion 41'st infantry . I was in the last iteration of that unit. We were anti tank specialists.
Hi girls, the war genre is one of the best - especially the world war 2 chapter. I highly recommend you react to Kelly's Heroes (1970) It's got vibes of this movie, but is so much better! It's an action comedy set in the aftermath of D-Day, where a platoon of American soldiers use a break from fighting to go after nazi gold hidden behind enemy lines! Also, WWII aerial warfare is a largely overlooked sub genre (for some inexplicable reason) which contains some banging war movies such as Memphis Belle, Red Tails & The Battle Of Britain... Please react to those too, I find war in the air to be more exciting and entertaining. I love your reactions and I'm subscribed :)
Yeah the front Sherman would have been shot first, then the rear one second leaving the two in the middle bunched up and stuck. They were all way too close together in column.
@@kikebautista2110 The scene with the sniper is also extremely stupid. The last one with the SS too. This movie unfortunately has a lot of stupid scenes.
I commend you both for starting to watch war movies. The worst thing we can do is forget the horrors of the past. It makes it so much easier to let history repeat itself.
watch some true stories, best first IMO: "We Were Soldiers" (2002) "Black Hawk Down" (2001) directed by Ridly Scott "Flags of our Fathers" (2007) directed by Clint Eastwood "American Sniper" (2014) directed by Clint Eastwood "Lone Survivor" (2013) directed by Peter Berg "Patriots Day" (2016) directed by Peter Berg "Deepwater Horizon" (2016) directed by Peter Berg "The Great Escape" (1963) "A Bridge Too Far" (1977) directed by Richard Attenborough "Tora! Tora! Tora!" (1970) "K-19: The Widowmaker" (2002) "Letters From Iwo Jima" (2007) directed by Clint Eastwood "Charlie Wilson's War" (2007) "The Great Raid" (2005) "Operation Mincemeat" (2021) "Hamburger Hill" (1987) "Patton" (1970) written by Francis Ford Coppola "The Bridge at Ramagen" (1969) "Munich" (2005) directed by Steven Spielberg "Lawrence of Arabia" (1962) "Valkyrie" (2008) "Zero Dark Thirty" (2012) "Bravo Two Zero" (1999)
Thanks so much T&T! I know this is was a tough watch, but I firmly believe that some movies (and books and poems and these days even games) need to be experienced with a little awe and fear, to endure and come out of the other side of it with the knowledge that some human beings faced that and felt that and did that, and if that can make us a little stronger then great; but if it can help us feel lucky to be alive and (hopefully) luck to be living in a peaceful country during semi-peaceful worldwide times (compared to World Wars) and then let these movies etc power us up and give thanks for each and every day on their behalf. Even if it's just a movie, often they are based upon true events or similar true experiences. I am SO glad I am ageing slowly in this life and this modern world and was not called up during WW1 or WW2 or served my country but faced battle, my heart goes out to all those that have, dead or alive. War movies are powerful for a reason. I feel respect for anyone facing war or acts of war or even acts of violence in any way, combat of this nature would scare the living crap out of me, then (if I survived) haunt me for the rest of my life. I am so thankful that the world has those that take on this burden, willingly or (sadly) sometimes not, so that most of us never need feel this, see this, endure and knightmare these things. Thank You to anyone that has served! Sorry too deep, but I have a friend that tuts and says it's just a made up movie and war action flick, I see it as deeper than that. And what great performances from all the cast here! Did someone seem to catch Jason Isaacs there, I think so anyway :) Thank you both for enduring, it was a certainly a powerful journey!
War isn't fun, and is definitely not like the movies . Anyone who's been to war always wishes for peace ✌️. Because most wars are unnecessary. But we have to follow orders and fight for the men beside us.
In real life, a tank like Fury, because it wasn't completely destroyed would have been repaired and return to service. I remember watching a show on The History channel over 20 years ago about American tank crews in WW2. One of the veterans they were interviewing was a tank mechanic. He said they would repair any holes in the armor and clean up, repair and repaint the inside. He also said that they could never get the smell of death out of the tank no matter how many coats of paint they put on.
It didn’t happen a lot, because even though M4A3E8 is a rare Sherman variant to see, at this point of the war they made much more of them than was required at the western front tbh.
SAVING PRIVATE RYAN starring TOM HANKS. It's nothing short of epic. It will be a tough one for you ladies to watch though. FURY may have been rough one to watch but SAVING PRIVATE RYAN is on a whole other level. WE WERE SOLDIERS starring MEL GIBSON. HACKSAW RIDGE starring ANDREW GARFIELD directed by MEL GIBSON
First, I think Tori could have been a gunner in a tank crew, just as good as the Machine. Second, I would suggest "We were Soldiers", "Hacksaw Ridge" or for more recent time period war movies, "Black Hawk Down" and "13 Hours".
Even though they didn't utilize sloped armor, the German Tiger Tank had an astounding 100MM thick frontal turret armor, which is why you see tank rounds bouncing right off of it rather than penetrating. The best way to effectively kill it was to shoot it in the ass. It also had a massive and fearsome 88MM cannon. Tigers were expensive and tedious to build, and the Germans didn't have near enough of them. They were also prone to break down: as many as 40% of them were being repaired at any given time.
1945, the United States and United Kingdom had high velocity armor-piercing rounds which could pierce the frontal armor of a tiger tank if fired from a long barreled 76mm like that of Fury. Of course, in the real world, a concealed German tank would take out the vehicle with the best anti-tank gun first.
That's because of the tank being so damn heavy of it's armour and protection, and its gasoline engine, the *Maybach HL230 P45 V-12* being insufficient to support the vehicle's speed, maneuverability and reliability, and this is the reason why tanks like Tigers, King Tigers, Panthers, Sturmtigers, Sturmpanthers, Jagdtigers and Jagdpanthers were so prone to malfunctions, engine-overheating, engine-breakdowns and mechanical failures anytime and anywhere, although they really packed a punch when facing allied or soviet tanks, in terms of range, firepower armour.
@@TommyPons No it wouldn't have. Normal Shermans with the normal 75mm gun that they had could penetrate the front of a Tiger I at 500 yards *easily* and did so in the times they actually fought. The Uparmed Fury could penetrate it at over 1000 yards. Fury is very loosely based off of British Firefly tank, and they routinely crushed the best of the German armor. Like one of the posters further upwards in this thread the entire family of Tiger/Panther tanks almost comically broke down all the time because either their suspension failed utterly or their engine burned out trying to move that entire honking piece of Metal. A Sherman (76mm) had a reasonable chance of dealing with a tiger from a bit over 1500m which was a fairly long range in WWII and in Europe. At a 1000m or less it was almost a guaranteed penetration on a non glancing shot. (Which by the way was *4* times as far away as the engagement was portrayed at) Another thing to remember is that two of the tanks would've flanked well out to the left and the right of the Tiger with the Fury heading at it straight away. It would've been outflanked and destroyed in a matter of moments. The Tiger's gun couldn't even rotate 45 Degrees in less than 60 seconds. Also with the advent of the Pershing it nearly had a perfect record against the higher end German Tanks.
@Ozai75 This is a perfectly running Tiger. The Tiger, with its 8.8 would have never had to break cover either. Both the 4th tank and Fury would have been targeted first, trapping the other two as easy kills. This ambush would have been over in a minute before the Allied tanks knew where the shots came from.
36:03 the tank mine needs a lot of weight to make the mine go off. I think it needs over 350-700 pounds to go off. If one of the guys stepped on one it would not blow up. great reaction. this movie is intense. Also the grenades have a pin when you pull it there is a clip that when you throw it it comes off and it explodes in 5 seconds. You can pull the pin and hold the clip for as long as you need before throwing it.
THIS WAS A AWESOME REACTION 😁 MY 2 BEAUTIFUL LADIES 👀♥️♥️♥️♥️ This MOVIE 🎥😁 WAS EXTREMELY EMOTIONAL WAR MOVIE AWESOME MOVIE CAST THO AND KISSES 😘😘 TO YOU MY SEXY TOY ♥️ this movie made my cry too boo l wish l was there to whiped ur tears love ❤️
This movie is kind of based on a real WW2 tank crew and their tank commander Lafayette "War Daddy" Pool. The RU-vidr Fat Electrician has a video on it. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-e5t42dA6xCM.html
I have a hard time with this film simply with the extremely badly written tactics both sides were portrayed as using. (The writers should be ashamed) 1, US Frontal attack across open ground with tanks side by side against a dug in anti tank gun battery supported by infantry. 2, US Tanks being sent out across enemy territory with no infantry. 3, German Tiger tank ambushing 4 US tanks and leaving it's ambush position onto open ground. Most of their advantage is thrown away. 4, US Tanks charge across open field in line formation towards the FRONT of a Tiger 1 tank. All the advantage goes to the Tiger. 5, German Infantry unit armed with anti tank weapons makes continual frontal assault against an immobilized US tank. (The final fight scene was so badly written if I had been the Military Historical Advisor on this film I would have had my name scrubbed from the credits)
Please react to “I Am Sam” starring Sean penn if you haven’t seen it. You two would be great reactors for such a good movie. Plus maybe you’ll inspire other youtubers to FINALLY react to it. Thanks ladies ❤.
New to your channel. Great reaction. A good recommendation would be Blackhawk Down about the Somali civil war in Mogadishu and the US involvement. It happened in 1993 so more recent. If you eventually watch it I highly recommend watching on your own, too long to react to. The Shawn Ryan Show on RU-vid where he interviews Tom Satterly. One of the US Delta Operators that fought there. It’ll give you a lot of insight on what the elite guys do and go through. Shawn interviews a lot of military guys as he is a former Navy Seal and his interviews are great.
You picked a hell of a movie for your first war movie! You guys should watch the series Band of Brothers. Hands down the best thing to watch on WWII. True stories with interviews of the actual vets that served. Can’t recommend it enough!👍🏼
Just think many of your grandparents or great grandparents did exactly this or were affiliated somehow.. greatest generation was the toughest generation kids the same age today they wouldn't be able to do it they don't have the guts
I love movies like this that really show the reality of war and hopefully make people grateful for those who had to endure this for the world’s safety. Could you even imagine you waiting at home while your husbands went through this.
36:54 even if there was more mines, it was an anit-tank mine. it takes thousands of pounds of pressure to activate it. they wont activate it by walking over it.
No matter how much I enjoy a certain movie I will not watch a reaction done by someone stupid enough to put a tatoo all over the side of their face. I will pass every time.
This suggestion is totally different from movie reactions, but this movie just made me think of a video on RU-vid that I think you ladies should react to. The video I'm referring to is the first and only time where the actions of someone who earned the Medal of Honor, was actually recorded. You can easily find the video of it here on RU-vid.
"I guess you can use smokes as a payment." Anything that's in short supply--whether it's through rationing as it was for all civilians on any side during the war, or because goods just can't be produced and moved as it was for Germany at this point in the war--is suitable for payment. People were starving, so yes, a chocolate bar could get you just about anything you wanted. Tobacco was rationed and considered a luxury item for civilians, even at the best part of the war.
Yes, the shots actually looked like that. Remember, they said "Every fifth round is a tracer?" That glowing bullet is the tracer. When shooting a machine gun, you usually cannot see where your rounds are hitting, especially in dark conditions or nighttime. You end up wasting a lot of ammo, trying to neutralize a target. The tracer round has a phosphorous end, so that when it is fired it glows all the way to where it finally hits something. Without this tracer round, you would likely never see where you are hitting. Actual tracers were spaced every 3rd to 5th round, depending on how many you had, or what your battle conditions dictated. In this movie, American tracers are red, and the German tracers are green. Hollywood "borrowed" this little factoid, when filming movies like Star Wars.
Damn it! Why the hell did it take almost 10 years for me to know that?!? I've been wondering since then what the heck the shooting looks like it's from a sci-fi film and why the heck is this not in other world war II films!!
This is a rough one. This emotional and intense portrayal of life as a WWII tank crew hits everyone hard. I will leave it at that. Thank you to TnT for sharing their reaction with us. Hugs to both of you. Sorry for your loss, Toy. tc
15:05 that is an MG42 machine gun, the standard German machine gun in WWII. Allied soldiers nicknamed it “Hitler’s Buzzsaw” because of the insane rate of fire of 1,200-1,500 RPM. Typical machine gun belts have typically have a tracer round every five shots, this is to help the gunner see where his bursts are landing. Due to the MG42’s ridiculous rate of fire, that’s what the tracers out of the gun look like.
I've seen a lot of reactors watch through Fury and give a similar reaction 😂 On a more serious note, I doubt many people understand before watching some films like this, which gives a brief display of what real combat is like. From Normandy in 1944 to Fallujah and Ramadi in the 21st century. These movies are a reality. The human psych adapts and though to outsiders it seems macbre and brutal this was reality for myself and many other combat veterans. You perform and you do your job or you die. Oftentimes there is no rhyme or reason, for the way things play out. They just do. Many modern war films, including "Fury" are great counterpoint to earlier war films. Sometimes "the good guys" do bad things...and some times the "bad guys" do good things.
It wasn't a missile that went through Coonass, it was a jet of white hot plasma that burned through the armor. A grenade has a spring loaded lever(called a "spoon") that you have to release after you pull the safety pin. The fuse doesn't start burning until then. Then you have around 5 seconds before detonation.
Anti-tank mines are magnetic. Early anti-tank were spring loaded, but these couldn't be placed that deep into the soil. This would make them very easy to spot and susceptible for friendly fire. Magnetic mines can be placed much deeper into the soil, making them very hard, if not impossible, to spot.
A German Reigel..Mark 2 mines were set off by pressure. A human's body weight wouldn't be enough to set it off. A vehicle however would. A Smi-44 mine; aka as a bouncing betty would be set off by personnel though.
@@MrKINSM Some types of mines were triggered with pressure. Drawbacks of these were that you cannot place them deep into the soil and internal parts could corrode making the mine very unstable.
Remember what the guy said to brad. When he sent them out. If they dont stop them the germans will overrun the supply lines and where the wounded are being kept .
The German tank in the film was a real Tiger tank. It was captured intact by the British in North Africa in 1943. It was shipped to Britain for evaluation and is now in the Bovington Tank Museum, as is the tank 'Fury.'. It is the only functioning Tiger tank in the world. All the tanks portrayed are capable of travelling faster that shown, but as they are all museum pieces they weren't allowed to risk damaging them, so they drove them slowly. Both the Tiger and Fury were lent out for the making of the film. For a less stressful war movie, you should watch the war comedy 'Kelly's Heroes.' It stars Clint Eastwood and Donald Sutherland, who just passed away on 20 June.
Except the Tigers rear was actually as strong as its side. The rear was the same 80mm thickness as the side. In fact the lower side plate (behind the wheels) was thinner than the rear plate at 60mm. The rear plate was slightly angled so it actually had a few more effective mm than the side.
The German soldier wearing an American over coat is in violation of the Geneva Convention because wearing an enemies uniform would cause confusion on the battlefield and unnecessary death. The penalty for this violation was death. The big guns firing at the US tanks are German 88 anti-aircraft / anti-tank artillery pieces. The were deadly to any tank. The reason War Daddy hated the SS is demonstrated when the Americans took the town. The SS officer that was executed had been hanging kids and anyone who refused to fight. The SS were fanatics and brutal even to their own people. Phosphorus round burned very hot and were used to create smoke to obscure the enemy's vision.
These are not 88mm. If you are talking about the towed ATs these are 75mm Pak-40s. The only 88mm gun in the movie was the Tiger’s 88mm KwK 36 and it was never used as an AA gun.
The horrors of war are necessary to watch so that we don't enter into conflict lightly or allow a madman to take power in the first place. Thank you for your reaction.
The German troops carried Panzerfaust. It is a portable one shot anti tank weapon. Nick name tank fist. It detonates on impact. Effective firing range: 200 yards. The filling is a shaped charge. In service from 1943 to 45.
@@rebmerf5622 yes it is it has an effective range of 300 meters on moving targets and 600 on ones that are stationary and if you need the conversion 300 meters is like 328 ish yards you should use google and fact check yourself before trying to incorrect someone
