American Sniper



As one reviewer said, this is an anti-war movie and a  pro-war movie. "American Sniper" is the true story of Chris  Kyle, the number one sniper in U.S. Military history.  It is also about what someone sometimes gives up for a passion.  Clint Eastwood directed this excel;;went movie about a real American hero.  The hero term gets lost in our society because  anyone who does what they agreed to do is a hero if it frightens the rest of us. Bradley Cooper is great in the title role which is Oscar worthy.  The Movie is hard "R" because it is a hard story. Nothing is timid. Nothing is restrained.

It deserves your attention.

I give it ****1/2 stars. 2015 movie #5
