A private user reviewed American Sniper (2014)
Very Worthy
By now, everyone has heard of Chris Kyle. "The Legend," as he was known from the soldiers he was assigned to protect is the most lethal sniper in US history with 160 kills.
A lot has been said about this film. That it's Merica' propaganda, that it has taken a lot of liberties with actual events and the like. I guess, I didn't think it was that blatant in the "RAH RAH USA, USA" department. Bradley Cooper was awesome as Chris Kyle, Eastwood's direction was solid and the war scenes were very well shot. American Sniper, to me, is worth the price of admission, and then some.
