In fact, it recently made a list of the 20 best war films of all time.

Set in April 1945, when the Allies are making their final push in the European theatre, the film centres on a battle-hardened Army sergeant named Don 'Wardaddy' Collier (Pitt).

This is as he leads a Sherman tank and a five-man crew on a deadly mission behind enemy lines.

"Hopelessly outnumbered, outgunned and saddled with an inexperienced soldier (Logan Lerman, Bullet Train) in their midst, Wardaddy and his men face overwhelming odds as they move to strike at the heart of Nazi Germany," the plot synopsis adds.

Written and directed by David Ayer (The Beekeeper), the rest of Wardaddy's crew is played by Jon Bernthal (The Punisher), Michael Peña (End of Watch) and Shia LaBeouf (Megalopolis).

Praised upon its release for its intense performances and its visceral action set-pieces - which both really capture the horrors of warfare - Fury's reputation has only improved in the decade since it came out.

A poll on the website Ranker places the movie 15th in a list of the best war films of all time.

Fury is airing on TV tonight on Film4 at 11.05pm. It is also available to stream on Prime Video.
