RIP Chris. Probably some anti-2nd mention by the detractors. Maybe Chris's dad should have a talk with those folks like he did with Clint Eastwood before starting the project.

Maybe the critics are North Koreans and Hollywood and the media will hype this film to spite them.

Oh wait, liberals never see the double standard hypocrisy.

This is of much more interest to me than some sophomoric comedy like “The Interview”.....

Screw the critics and the anti gun nuts - the public will LOVE this movie IMO.

Wasn’t he killed by a white PTSD Muslim CONVERT..?

I heard this, but it’s amazing it’s not news.

Screened American Sniper! It was so, so! Not much depth to Chris Kyle in the film. Just me two cents of course.

Here's an article from April 2003, not long after he was murdered. Good read, fair-minded, IMO.

The Legend of Chris Kyle

The deadliest sniper in U.S. history performed near miracles on the battlefield. Then he had to come home.

The commie libs in the government and its “media” appear to have drawn a bead on the SEALs lately. Great! Spitting hippies Part 2. The hippies are flashing back to the 60s.

My wife pointed out the Hollywood celebrities slander the soldiers that give them the right to put out their trash propaganda.

It’s out enough to be Oscar eligible. And it’s scoring 70% at Rotten. Hardly being put down.

If the lefties hate this movie, it is definitely on my “Got To See” list.

A movie about one man killing a couple hundred of islamists, it has to be good, the last time I went to a movie theater was the Terminator over twenty five years I think, but I just might go to see American Sniper.

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.

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?
