For those who’ve agonized over Hollywood’s portrayals of the Iraq War, I give you “The Hurt Locker.”

The film’s second trailer hit the Internet today and, as I sit here wearing my (apparently passe) Camp Liberty t-shirt, I must say it looks pretty good.

Billed as the “first non-political Iraq War film,” “Hurt Locker” follows the story of Staff Sergeant William James, a maverick bomb removal expert who leads a team trying to save lives – including their own.

It was directed by Kathryn Bigalow, who is herself something of a maverick.

Bigalow has made her name in Hollywood as one of the only female directors of action films. Her credits include “K19: The Widowmaker,” “Point Break” and “Strange Days.”

That experience is evident in the trailer. Jeremy Renner’s Sergeant James is just the type of iconoclast Bigalow identifies with. Plus, the explosions look great.

The film received strong reviews on the Fall film fest circuit, especially for Renner’s “career-making” turn as James.

It will be released on June 26 so the rest of us can judge for ourselves.
