You have to see American Sniper.

Incredible film and it’s biopic was heart wrenching.

Just awesome and like Lone Survivor, quite a few wet eyes at the end.

And we all stayed through the credits.

The silence was palpable.

We somberely left the theater with an even greater understanding and admiration for “Our” American Service members.

I’m sure the movie if great, and also people are sick of the communists, racists and islamists who are undermining this great nation.

Your comments are spot on!

The reaction at the theater I went to was the same.

I'm so glad Speilberg dropped out of directing this and it was Eastwood. A big time leftie like Spielberg would never have done it justice.

If we only had men in leadership in this country with half as much of a sense of duty as Chris Kyle the country would be in great shape.

I did see it.

The screen was blurry to me at the end.

This is exactly what I observed too. Very somber attitude as everyone walked out of the movie theater. I know a sniper who was over there when this happened who saw it too. He told me the movie was pretty close to what he experienced with one slight difference. In the move the “spotter” that’s with him is always sitting around and talking while the sniper was doing his own spotting (which is very tiring on their eyes; having done hours of surveillance sitting with my eyes glued to one spot I think I have an understanding of what it would feel like).
