Chris Kyles story is one I believe absolutely should be told, and although I have my concerns regarding how accurately the movie will relay the events of his service as a SEAL, I wouldnt miss it. Unfortunately its looking as though the naysayers are working overtime on this one, though, because the movie has yet to come out and the mud slinging has already begun.

All,
Brandon Webb (SOFREP guy and SEAL sniper instructor) said that it's not a good as Lone Survivor or Saving Private Ryan, but that it's worth seeing. His major beefs were technical issues, confusing transitions, and too much emphasis on the home front issues. FWIW.
Merry Christmas!

Ball less wimps will always be afraid.
Afraid of the truth and the reality of life.

That’s a good rule of thumb to live by actually - when people who hate everything you stand for dislike anything, chances are, we’ll like it!

FWIW, the reviewer on Fox News this morning said it was a great movie, one of the best of the year. Gave it the best review of all the Christmas Day releases.

"Maybe Chris's dad should have a talk with those folks like he did with Clint Eastwood..." How about some background info on that statement?
