January 21, 2015
Most movie goers know that anything directed by Clint Eastwood is going to be an exceptional film.
His newest box office release is no exception.
“American Sniper,” tells the true story of the most lethal sniper in U.S. military history.
But there was much more to this true American hero than his skill with a rifle.
And this is the story that Eastwood tries to portray.
Based on the biographical novel of the same name, “American Sniper” tells the story of U.S. Navy Seal sniper Chris Kyle, played by Hollywood heart-throb Bradley Cooper, who is sent to Iraq with only one mission: to protect his fellow brothers-in-arms at all costs.
His pinpoint accuracy as a sniper saves countless lives on the battlefield and, as stories of his courage spreads, he earns the well-deserved nickname “Legend.”
Because of his reputation, enemies have put a price on his head, making him a prime target for insurgents.
Despite the danger, as well as the toll his position places on his family back home inthe sates, Chris serves through four tours of duty in Iraq.
But after returning home, Chris finds that he cannot leave behind the things he had to do while overseas.
With a killer script and an amazing line up of talent, this movie is a must-see for any Eastwood or Cooper fans.
Bradley Cooper gives one of the best performances of his career, showing his days of doing mediocore movies are behind him.
The film also stars Sienna Miller with Luke Grimes, Kyle Gallner, Sam Jaeger, Jake McDorman and Cory Hardrict in supporting roles.
This film is a must see for fans who enjoyed the movie, be sure to read the autobiography written by America’s most lethal sniper himself.
