Probably. It's winning all the cinematography awards so far, so there's probably lot's more techniques for you to find annoying. So does almost every war film now almost be it "Blackhawk Down" and even "Children of Men".
If you want your material shot straight and boring, watch made for TV versions of the same stories. They would apparently be more to your liking.

Well, on a certain level, the handheld camera is always going to break that 4th wall. That is the point. You are supposed to be aware there is a cameraman there. The public is not so naive about how film is made as in the past. And when relating a true story, as the" Hurt Locker" indeed is, it does give a more realistic feeling. Besides, this type of true story does not require an absolute 4th wall for suspension of desbelief, as say a science fiction film would.
Obvious handheld shots would absolutely not work in something like "The Hobbit". Too much documetary realism would break the suspension of belief by introducing way too much reality (as viewers of it in the 48 FPS format are unfortunately discovering). -á"I am not young enough to know everything." - Oscar Wilde |

IF you maintain that shaky camera work enhances realism, that is thin ice you walk on, so be prepared for the inevitable rebuttal, sir. AK
The special effects in the new BSG were deliberately made to look like documentary footage. Said so by effects guys in commentary. Sorry, but that did not make it suck. -áGÇ£Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else's opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation.GÇ¥ - Oscar Wilde |

My former alliance leader was a 25 year Green Beret who thought it was dead on accurate, as was "Blackhawk Down"....an event he was actually sent to as first response.
