Navy S.E.A.L. sniper Chris Kyle's pinpoint accuracy saves countless lives on the battlefield and turns him into a legend. Back home to his wife and kids after four tours of duty, however, Chris finds that it is the war he can't leave behind.
The Texan Chris Kyle has been a skilled shooter since he was a kid. When he is an adult, he decides to join the SEAL to become a sniper. Meanwhile he meets the gorgeous Taya in a bar and soon they get married and have two children. He travels four times to Iraq and along his tours, he protects the American soldiers with his precise shoots and becomes a legend. However, each time that he returns home, he has problems to readjust to his family and to the social life.
The American Sniper is one of the newest movies in the war movie category and it truly shows how the war on Irak affected your protagonist, played by Bradley Cooper,and his family.First thing first, Cooper was excellent to the role,which was a big surprise to me because I knew him as a comedian,but here he really makes you believe that he is a strong yet traumatized warrior .Sienna Miller was also good at presenting to us what it meanings to be with a person like that and as I saw ,it is hard. Also I think that after letters from Iwo Jima this the best war movie that the old cowboy Eastwood has ever made because although it show us that some thing worth fighting for, the cost of war in the soul and body, it makes the gains worthless, if you can not be with your loved-ones. To conclude the people who say bad things about this flick are out of their minds and are either hipster or so called &quot;film-critics&quot;who love to say that it is not Apocalypse Now, which is one of the greatest movies of all time but,they have pasted about forty years since then and a lot have changed, and lets be honest the war movies of the late seventies and early eighties are great but they are almost hilariously over the top and a bit inaccurate in a historical manner. <br/><br/>In other words here the critics got it wrong and the box office right.
I can put aside that they chose to allude to 9/11 being the cause of the the Iraq War–which is patently false, Iraq had nothing to do with the Twin Towers attack, yet there we see the towers going down and two scenes later the boys are called up to go fight.<br/><br/>I can also put aside the fact that the real Chris Kyle was been proved to liar in many of the stories in his book, even losing a lawsuit brought by Jesse Ventura, turns out Kyle totally made his story about punching him out up.<br/><br/>But what I can&#39;t put aside, is even if you look at this as a fictional movie, that it&#39;s so poorly done. I should point out I like war movies, I&#39;ve seen most of them from the old classics to the modern era, and American Sniper was completely underwhelming. The war and fight scenes weren&#39;t as intense as Hurt Locker, Lone Survivor or Black Hawk Down, the tension with tracking down the other sniper wasn&#39;t built up at all (like say with Zero Dark Thirty), and the character development and story depth was nothing close to Saving Private Ryan, Apocalypse Now, Platoon and Full Metal Jacket. I love a good shoot &#39;em up war movie and I love a movie that looks into the psychological effects of war on soldiers, but American Sniper just seemed weak in it&#39;s attempts at both. Want a realistic depiction of modern warfare? Watch the Generation Kill series, it&#39;s brilliant. Or watch any of the other movies I&#39;ve mentioned, they are all better than American Sniper. It baffles me the ratings and success such a sub-par war movie is getting. That said, Bradly Cooper did the best he could with the script and direction, but this could have been such a better movie. And the ending was a total cop out.
Just as “The Hurt Locker” found revelatory depths in Jeremy Renner, so American Sniper hinges on Cooper’s restrained yet deeply expressive lead performance, allowing many of the drama’s unspoken implications to be read plainly in the actor’s increasingly war-ravaged face.
Texan sharpshooter Chris Kyle (<a href="/name/nm0177896/">Bradley Cooper</a>), looking to serve his country in the war against terrorism, becomes a Navy SEAL sniper. Serving four tours of duty in Iraq, Kyle saves countless lives on the battlefield, becoming a legend among his comrades. However, readjusting to civilian life between and after his tours takes its toll on his wife Taya (<a href="/name/nm1092227/">Sienna Miller</a>) and an even higher toll on Kyle himself. Loosely based on American Sniper: The Autobiography of the Most Lethal Sniper in U.S. Military History (2012) by U.S. Navy SEAL Chris Kyle along with Scott McEwen and Jim DeFelice, Kyle&#39;s memoir was adapted for the movie by American screenwriter Jason Hall. Kyle is credited with 255 kills, 160 of them officially confirmed by the Pentagon. He admits himself he was lucky to pass his sniper course and graduated in the middle of his class. He puts his success partly down to just luck, insurgents seemed to just walk into his proximity. However, he also deliberately put himself in the midst of the fiercest action, joining the US Marines in house-to-house fighting when sniper targets were unavailable. He also served four tours in Iraq which was a much longer period in combat than many other famous snipers. The mark (callus) suggests that he has been resting for long periods on his elbows, as though he had been using a sniper rifle, making Kyle suspect he is an insurgent. There are two sets of controversies surrounding Kyle. One is related to comments which he made which some have interpreted as bigoted and offensive, such as describing all Iraqi insurgents as &quot;savages&quot; and describing how he &quot;loved&quot; killing them, his only regret about his time in Iraq was that he couldn&#39;t kill more. He also voiced contempt about wider Iraqi society for each faction vying for supremacy rather than sharing power and working together. A persistent rumour was that Kyle went down to New Orleans with a fellow SEAL during the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, set up on the roof of the Superdome and killed a couple dozen looters. However, this story stemmed from a conversation Kyle had with fellow SEAL Brandon Webb about rumours of other snipers doing so, Kyle made no claim to do so himself. Kyle also claimed that once, while stopped at a gas station, a pair of men tried to carjack him. When he reached into the car, ostensibly to give them his keys, he claims to have actually grabbed a pistol and shot the two men dead. He claimed that when the police arrived he had a contact at the Department of Defense order them to let him go free. A biographer sympathetic to Kyle scoured law enforcement agencies in the area where Kyle said this took place and could find no double shooting matching Kyle&#39;s description. In his memoir, Kyle talks about attending a SEAL event where an older, famous, ex-UDT frogman began making comments about American servicemen in Iraq which Kyle found offensive. Kyle said that he then punched the man, knocking him out. In the book, Kyle refers to the man only as &quot;Scruff Face&quot; but in subsequent interviews, Kyle identified &quot;Scruff Face&quot; as Jesse Ventura, a former pro-wreslter and Governor of Minnesota. Ventura sued Kyle for defamation and presented several witnesses who testified that the punch never happened. After Kyle&#39;s death, Ventura continued the suit against Kyle&#39;s estate, eventually winning the case. However, in 2016, federal judges overturned the verdict. It was alleged that Kyle had remarked that he wanted to kill people carrying Korans. This came from an incident where Kyle killed an armed insurgent whose wife later claimed he was only carrying his Koran. When an investigating officer put the claim to Kyle, he told him, &quot;I don&#39;t shoot people with Korans. I&#39;d like to but I don&#39;t&quot;, to show how stupid the allegation was. A further rumour was that Kyle had claimed he was going to donate the proceeds from his book to the families of dead SEALs but then did not. In truth, Kyle intended to but his death plunged his family into financial crisis and they nearly lost their house, only saved by the proceeds of the book and film.
