Obviously, I'm not the best person to be asked on how to defend one's self from the ever continuing threat of terrorism. I'm clueless about what warfare truly is about. What I know is that this year's Oscar Best Picture winner, The Hurt Locker, is a story of a brave yet reckless young soldier who is an expert in defusing bombs.
Putting yourself in such a risky situation to save the lives of many is truly heroic. The main character is married and has a son. I can't even imagine someone like him would courageously put himself on the line even if he knows that his job could eventually blow him up. That's true courage right there. He may be an expert in that field, but no one can ever tell when a bomb would explode.
Film critics have said that it is a near-perfect movie. Though I think it's not an overwhelmingly great movie, but it's worth watching. Another inspiring war movie directed by a woman named Kathryn Bigelow, James Cameron's ex-wife.
