Not great, but good

Rating: 6/10 (4 May 2015)

Is this an Oscar winning movie? I don't think so. Why did it get an Oscar? Perhaps because Clint was filming it and Bradly Cooper (Chris Kyle) was actor in lead. Don't get me wrong, movie was fine, but not that great for Oscar winning movie.
Bradley Cooper was great in his roll, we can see excellent acting from him. In some scenes you can't believe it's him, and just wonder what he had to get through to bring out that emotion, and how to act in some scenes. Also, it was decent story, decent shooting, but not that exceptional.
I don't know what Clint was trying to do, maybe show him as hero (Chris Kyle)? I mean why, he openly admitted killing those "savages" as he called them and felt good about it. He, as it's shown in movie didn't feel remorse for it, at all. Also, even if movie was long, it felt like it quickly passed through story. It really could have be done better, maybe show both sides of Americas war on East while portraying Kyle as part of it.
In future, please Clint, think before doing sensitive stories, as I know you can do better, because you are a great director, and actor. Keep up the good work.
