BOOOORING!!!! Seriously? This has to be a joke... Was I watching a messy TV episode???

Rating: 1/10 (16 January 2016)

I can't believe how this could get nominated for anything other than Bradley Cooper's skills of handling the plastic baby as if its moving. I'm glad the public makes fun of this movie for the baby because that alone represents this whole movie that it really can't be taken seriously. What the hell was Clint Eastwood thinking? Obviously he was more concerned about making money out of this film than a quality story/film and didn't even have the patience to use a real baby - everything is rushed.
This movie is an absolute mess! You can see how rushed this movie was made and there was no real thought process into it.
I seriously thought I was watching a crappy, cheap cheesy cliché TV episode...
I am not a war movie nut, but at least BLACK HAWK DOWN has a cinematic feel and is way more thrilling and had a main focus and knew what they were trying to tell..
This film has no idea where it's trying to go, all over the place, boring shootout scenes that just drag.
The whole premise of cowboy enlisting to the SEALS after seeing a terrorist attack on TV and 9/11; how they just end up in Iraq and going after "Bin Laden's men" just has this whole propaganda Hollywood cliché one-dimensional idea. The movie only achieves glorifying a man being a "legend sniper" killing throughout the movie; honestly, the movie even fails there to portray this guy as a legend. There is no moment in the movie where you are on the edge of your seat... everything is so cliché from the bad guy sniper to the flat soldiers and unfunny script writing.
There is no coherent flow or story! There is NEVER any quality build up.
The trailer was the ONLY "exciting" thing about this film... I watched this film with anticipation it would have that buildup and tense moments that the trailer leads you to believe. THE MOVIE IS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Cliché AND SO SO AWFUL.
I kept looking at my watch and wondering if this film was going to get any better. Nope. The ending sums up the whole movie: rushed.
This is one shallow Hollywood war movie that makes Michael Bay's Pearl Harbor seem Oscar worthy - I mean at least that one felt more cinematic and an enjoyable movie experience.
Even for the actions alone, it's the most boring and cliché. There is a scene with the sandstorm where you can't even see what the hell is going on.
SKIP IT.
