U.S. Navy SEAL Chris Kyle takes his sole mission—protect his comrades—to heart and becomes one of the most lethal snipers in American history. His pinpoint accuracy not only saves countless lives but also makes him a prime target of insurgents. Despite grave danger and his struggle to be a good husband and father to his family back in the States, Kyle serves four tours of duty in Iraq. However, when he finally returns home, he finds that he cannot leave the war behind.

This is based on the real life American

This is based on the real life American SEAL Chris Kyle (Bradley Cooper) whose finely honed sniping skills see him take four tours to wartorn Iraq at the height of the tensions there, whilst trying to reconcile the fairly profound effects of the war on his psychology and on his family back at home. On that front, he is married to Taya (Sienna Miller) and by watching his increasingly perilous activities abroad and his struggles to adjust to life with her and their children when he returns each time, we get a powerful sense of the impact his job, and of his own childhod, is having on his mental stability. He's not a violent man, nor a drunken thug. Indeed, he is aware of the vacillations of his behaviour and also appreciates the equally torrid situation faced by Taya and his growing family as each trip leaves him more involuntarily distant and emotionally disconnected. Initially, I didn't think Cooper was the best choice here - he begins in just a little too lightweight a fashion, but thanks to some authentic looking recreations of their Iraqi scenarios we do get a gradually growing feeling for the dangers he and his squad face and he starts to exude something altogether more convincing. What also works well here is the ensemble effort from his fellow soldiers as bullets (and brains) whizz around and it becomes clear that technological advantage isn't as effective in an urban environment where martyrdom is a perfectly acceptable outcome for their foes. Politically, this is a little naive and tends to somewhat simplistically showcase the visitors as benign law-keepers in the face of local warlords who terrorise their own people with threats and even an electric drill, but if you can set that aside then what we get here is a potent took at the dangers of a modern war and of the lasting effects it can have. The ending isn't really explained very satisfactorily, but once this gets going it's a forecful biopic of a brave man.

Eastwood directs this deeply moving film about navy

Eastwood directs this deeply moving film about navy seal Chris Kyle, adapted from his autobiography. A first rate production both in front of, and behind the camera, this movie has all the markings of a true classic.

clint hits the target with American sniper...

it was extremely 'even'. nothing seemed overplayed. well balanced storytelling. as someone else wrote, best war movie i've seen in years...and while we're at it, best clint movie in a few outings, as well... i agree that the ending is a bit sudden. but there was no reason to drag it out, either... i don't feel it lingered on any one dynamic of what would be expected from a film like this...not TOO much violence or proselytizing/flag waving or lingering on casualty horrors... it doesn't, on the other hand, turn away from any of the ugliness, either... i thought bradley cooper did a great job in the role. the changes he gradually instilled into the character were subtle but present. it's as well done a war movie as i'll ever need.
