An Individual's Experience as US Navy SEAL Sniper

Rating: 10/10 (1 February 2015)

This film is an excellent adaptation of Chris Kyle's memoir about his experience as a United States Navy SEAL sniper. There are some deviations from the book as well as a number of controversies surrounding this adaptation, but it does not detract from the quality of the film nor enjoyment of it. I highly recommend this movie.
It is important to keep in mind not to mix up this film with the morality or justification of our military presence in Iraq and the Middle East. This is a story of an individual's experience and should not be confounded with issues bigger than what the film is attempting to address. Many reviewers are confused with this simple fact and dismiss the film over understandable ignorance.
The film will, hopefully, make you think about the sacrifice our servicemen make every day to keep us safe and reinforce the rights we take for granted.
