Like all movies, I’m sure much of what was in the book was cut out. They probably wanted to focus the story more on his miraculous survival than what got them in the situation in the first place. More *glamorous* and *Hollywood*!
These are highly trained men used to making important decisions in the blink of an eye. If the movie made it look like a rash or easy decision, they’ve misled the audience, IMO.

I have seen Marcus Luttrell in interviews say it was a realistic movie; in fact, he worked with the actors.
