When it reaches $160 million, that will be $1 million for each of the “confirmed kills” the movie’s “hero” accomplished in Eye-rack.

I’ve seen people shooting at each other. I don’t really care to see this movie. Maybe I’ll be alone in this feeling but there it is.

But this movie is better: a lone American male hero shoots women and children. A lot of them. Who hate America for its freedoms.
Box office blockbuster guaranteed!

I saw this movie last night. It doesn’t look like anyone who has posted so far has seen American Sniper. I don’t like movies about shooting people and I’m not a big fan of war movies, but this movie is really good. It actually deals with PTSD. Bradley Cooper did a nice job and Sienna Miller as his wife did too. It based on a true story so I encourage you skeptics to go see it.

I’ve watched the movie this past weekend and the thing that left me most impressed was the audience eerie silence while exiting the theater. It felt like everyone was deeply saddened by how the life of this American Hero ended, not by enemy but a fellow soldier fire.
R.I.P. Chris Kyle

I know it’s a real story. The reason I don’t wish to see it is it may (and probably will) bring to the surface memories I’d rather leave alone. But that is just me. I’m not saying others shouldn’t see it.

That’s legit.
Eastwood’s movie is conservative porn. It will do great. It has racism, god, guns, soldiers, flag waving, and a Christian shooting Muslims. It is even doing better than Mel Gibson’s “The Passion of the Christ”.

I did not come away from this movie thinking that at all and I’m pretty liberal.

Well, just to be sure, does the movie cover the fact that Kyle was happy to kill people, didn’t give a damn about the Iraqis, and considered them “savages”? Does it cover the fact that he bragged about shooting “looters” during Katrina (which may or may not have happened, but still, who would brag about it either way, other than a fucking racist?).

To which I’d add, does it deal with the fact that Kyle was in Iraq as part of an invading force fighting an unjust and immoral war? Also, pretty sure he referred to the people he claimed to have murdered in New Orleans as “savages” too.

Don’t like Eastwood, don’t like the notion of a sniper killing innocent people (bragging point is confirmed 255 kills) because he may have seen them handle a grenade, don’t like war movies in general and definitely not those about Iraq, but I like Bradley Cooper enough to watch my copy of American Hustle instead.

Before he became a sniper he was sent there to protect Iraqis from harm, and he turned into the one doing harm. The irony is so thick you could choke on it. Michael Moore got in trouble with the right for tweeting this.
“My uncle killed by sniper in WW2. We were taught snipers were cowards. Will shoot u in the back. Snipers aren’t heroes. And invaders r worse,” “Fahrenheit 9/11” creator Michael Moore tweeted Sunday.

One way of looking at this ridiculous Eastwood senior moment was that it brought scorn and derision on Mittens, always a good thing.

Wiki says 255 kills, 160 confirmed. Somebody else is going have to pay the $20. for admission for two and another $15. for concession stand junk food because I won’t…
My brother has expressed interest ingoing to see American Sniper. I’ve told him he’s on his own.

I saw this movie last night and didn’t care for it, though I can imagine the average American would love it. Overly simplified plot, lots of blood and guts and killing; it wasn’t my style. It’s weak overall IMO.
