Extremely moving war movie

Rating: 8/10 (24 May 2015)

American Sniper tells the true story of SEAL Chris Kyle. Clint Eastwood really does a great job of truthfully telling and displaying the horrors of war and how it truly does affect the soldiers after they come back home from war. Bradley Cooper was amazing as the lead role, Chris Kyle. Sienna Miller was also very spot on with her performance as Chris's wife back home. The visuals and the war violence were very real, and really showed you how the were in Iraq really was for the soldiers, and how truly disturbing it was, not only for the soldiers, but also for their families. I was very entertained and satisfied with this film. It should've won Best Picture in my opinion, but maybe I should see Birdman before I say that. This film really left me speechless and I was truly moved and touched by not only the actors performances, but also how they portrayed the war in Iraq!
