The Hurt Locker

I thought this movie was very good but I didn't like it.  Now, that may not make a lot of sense but this is what I mean:
The actors did a fantastic job and the movie itself was well portrayed but the film as a whole was too heavy for me.  War really freaks be out and having to watch all of those suspenseful scenes bothered me a lot.  The movie made me feel sick through most of it and I thought the characters were very interesting.  I was shocked that he went back to war after having to deal with what we witnessed throughout the movie.  
I think the hurt locker symbolizes emotional pain.  Having to deal with what these men went through was physically and emotionally exhausting.  I don't understand how they were able to make it through without losing their minds.  The locker room is a place where men bond but in war, these men grow close with one another through unimaginable pain and hardships.  Personally, thats what I think "hurt locker" means.
