Though it debuted at a film festival and will be following a very slow, small-scale release pattern, The Hurt Locker is as thrilling and entertaining as any giant blockbuster this summer. Kathryn Bigelow's war movie follows three bomb experts in Iraq as they count down the days until the end of their tour of duty. Jeremy Renner, as the biggest hothead but also the most talented in the bunch, is phenomenal in his role, and he and Anthony Mackie play marvelously off each other as initial rivals who eventually learn they have no choice but to work together.
