A feel of grit and realism!

Rating: 7/10 (12 January 2014)

The Lone Survivor creates the experience of grit and realism. A strong start where the viewer is inundated with Seal code, by experiencing hell week. Honor, duty, commitment from training is segued into the base experience where the story evolves into Seal's commitment of family/loyalty. One understands why procedures need to be met and not deviated from , but are in conflict with the value of protecting one's Seal brother. There are protocols for reasons and going against it results in dire consequences. Without giving the story away, all I can write is a true story is better than fiction. One experiences there are good and bad in all people. The director and actors where believable. Bana and Whalberg shined in their roles. I give Lone Survivor a seven out of ten.
