Best Movie of 2014, and it should have won more awards!

Rating: 9/10 (27 June 2015)

Why are so many people complaining about this movie? I saw this movie with a friend in the movie theater, and I found it to be an engaging movie. It is about a man who decides to fight for what is right and to help his fellow men in the heat of battle (whether or not the Iraq War is justifiable is a moot point here, and is thus irrelevant, for this is not a movie that is intended to be preachy, but rather one that dissects life from the point-of-view of Chris Kyle). I am personally against the Iraq War, but I still loved this movie, and I still have a very healthy respect for those who fought in that bloody conflict! 'Based on a true story' movies are usually not my cup of tea, either, but I still loved this movie. More movies should be like this.
