I'll never forget when I saw it the day it came out. It was only in 3 or 4 theaters in America and I saw it in Dallas with my wife, and a friend and his father. When the movie ended it was a deafening, somber silence that I had never experienced before or since at a theater. Excellent movie! Obviously very memorable.
Clint is a Bad SOB. The Movie was absolutely incredible and Bradley (Coop) , my old Neighbor in Jenkintown, PA was incredible. So proud of his success. He is an awesome Dude !!
This was not a left or right film. It was a story about 1 Seal & his family between deployments & the difficulty for the warrior in transitioning from war to home. I've looked @a lot of his interviews during the book tour & his goal was not the # of kills but he would have preferred to know how many lives he was able to save. The transition from battleground to home along with PTSD could apply to ant vet, including the Vietnam vets & their families. Taya gave him an ultimatum after his last tour - his family or the military. Without hesitation, he chose his family. When you see the movie, you don't see Bradley Cooper on screen, you see Chris Kyle. I'm hoping thar Cooper gets the Oscar for this movie. It's the 3rd nomination in a row & the transformation was amazing!! I hope the Hollywood actors can vote without politics!
Neither do the Tony voters. Cooper has been in An Elephant Man on Broadway with excellent reviews! Was he nominated? I don't know but if he was he did't win.
It's good to see veterans like Chris being appreciated by the people that they protect.The man gave up a big part of his life and didn't mind or didn't ask for the spotlight,give thanks to the man and let his soul rest in peace his children now have no father he deserves RESPECT or better yet get in the trenches and see how it feels
He hid behind a balcony while his comrades ran out and got obliterated. He talked about his kill count like some nerd to plays Call Of Duty 24/7. I don't agree that he didn't want the spotlight either. He was appearing on every talk show and doing countless interviews right up to the week of his death. If he was alive now who knows what he's be doing. The movie exaggerated his status as an American hero but at the same time also took advantage of his death to add another layer to Bradley Cooper's performance. The movie would mean nothing if he hadn't died.
@@rampageclover9788 that's his job, his hiding behind a balcony saves those people who are on the ground from enemies they dont see, people up high, In windows, faurther back, coming up the road. One of the reasons why western militaries are so deadly is because of well trained snipers and marksmen
The movie was great and Bradley Cooper was the one who made the movie the Best one who played Chris Kyle in the movie. Bradley you have done the BEST in the movie and voice coaches taking the weight off and starting over again for the next movie. I could watch Bradleys movies over and over and over again. I just love what he puts into acting the part he's doing in each movie that he does. 💘 to you Bradley and I will keep you close to my heart forever!
Thanks Brad Cooper great film, thanks to my all time hero Clint Eastwood.! I was Marine 07, 5811! I cherish my American heroes, aspire not to make a living, aspire to make a difference! This is ours.......be strong......be humble....own your life and be gracious in doing so!
Read Chris Kyle's autobiography if you want to know who he actually is which is pretty different from the spotless hero sort of role he was given in American Sniper
Why do people call this propaganda? You might as well call "Saving Private Ryan" propaganda since it's also about American soldiers. Believe it or not, a film can be about war, can promote America and paint the military in a positive light and still have story, themes and characters with depth to them. It seems really screwed up how much people wanted to avoid this film.
It's because Chris was a terrorist - by any non-emotional definition. Imagine China invaded the US to "free" it from its 2 party totalitarian regime that has enslaved the population in debt and imprisoned more people per capita than any other country (7x more than China); and one of their soldiers sniped every moving object that tried to "resist" the occupying force... I'm assuming any sane person would consider that Chinese soldier a terrorist. Anyone who makes an exception is suffering from cognitive dissonance.
How does having themes and characters with depth to them conflict with beeing propaganda? This could ve been made by Goebbels but since it´s American..
Ace Nothing M-W has a definition... Terrorist: a person who uses unlawful violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims. That describes US aggression just as much as it does Islamofascists. Are you aware of how many civilians the US has killed just in Yemen alone in the last few years?!
And you are telling me Chris Kyle is one of those people? You are telling me that he unlawfully harmed and/or killed civilians for political aims? No. He did not. You must look into his previous statements. This was a man that loved his country and family. He loved people. He did not regret any of the 160 kills he has to his name. He did not slaughter civilians, and you are entirely uncaring and disrespectful to say he would have.
Clint Eastwood’s version of “American Sniper” was a Hollywood production. The screenplay by Jason Hall mixed half truths with fiction. The scene where the “Hollywood Chris Kyle” looks through his scope at the young boy and says, “Don’t pick it up” was fictional. It was not Clint Eastwood’s or Warner Brothers’ intent to make a film that was historically accurate. It was their job to make a film that would sell a lot of movie tickets. The “Hollywood Chris Kyle” played by Bradley Cooper needed to be “sanitized’ for the big screen. There was no mention of Chris Kyle’s web of fabricated stories. There are people who thought the “Rambo” and “Top Gun” films were real…. as well as James Cameron’s “Titanic”. Some people can’t distinguish Hollywood productions from reality.
The irony in this comment is the Chris Kyle was the biggest narcissist who lied about murders he committed, even during Hurricane Katrina. Also lied about the amount of awards he received. Granted, he did not deserve to die, but he wasn't a good person everybody claims he is.
Something he gets really well is that people in the military actually shift their accent depending on where they are, it's not just Chris Kyle who does that and very rarely do you see that in movies.
"Liberal Hollywood Kardashian garbage" ? Very good .You managed to put together 4 words that are relevant to someone I'm sure ..but exactly what one thing has to do with the other is probably best understood by yourself Did somebody bet you that you couldn't fit those 4 words into a sentence ? Anyway ,how do you know enough about it to call it garbage ..unless of course you've watched it Stick to stories about killers

I guess this shows that murderers are made, they don't just exist. Put people through enough stress and savagery and they become killers, he was killed by the insanity that war creates. And is a never ending cycle until you end war.
***** True, very accurate statement. It's this ongoing double standard. Blacks are okay with Chris Kyle saying such a thing about Bradley Cooper because they *_KNOW HE's JOKING!_*
I am SO very glad for the controversy that the wildly successful sniper Chis Kyle and his wildly successful movie are generating!! How could it be otherwise?? Chris was no saint and neither is every soldier a saint (duh!), but Chris had the absolutely necessary core of a true saint: he was 100% a real man with a sacrificial heart!! There is NOTHING, absolutely nothing in the whole wide universe that would be more hated today by the PC Super Boring Hate Trolls (PCSBHT) than a REAL man! A REAL father! A REAL husband! A REAL American! A REAL hero! Chris is a real clean MIRROR where these PCSBHT can see their monster faces: the cowardly lovey-dovey, warm-fuzzies, falsely spiritual criminals that worship the lowest of the lowest in human beings, seeking salvation in the latrine of human sin and adoring it with murderous abandon. How could they not hate the man who killed the very objects of their demonic adoration, justification and praise?? Chris was showboating? He had bravado? It's time real men get the spotlight or grab it from the Ninnies!! EVEN AFTER DEATH!!
Bradley Cooper is one of the best actors out there today. Clint Eastwood is one of the best directors but the movie reeked of war propaganda and Chris Kyle is a bonafide liar. Worth a watch keeping this in mind.
I didn’t like this interview - more specific the guy doing the interview. Seemed very disrespectfull to both Chris and Bradly. He didn’t even let him finish his sentence in the very start and then just asked all kinds of wack questions.
The movie ended up as a big propaganda movie like we saw in Inglorious Basterds. It's so pro-war, ignoring everything wrong with the Iraq war. Glorifying Kyle as a hero for killing 160 human-beings. As a european I hope this movie doesn't represent american people..
1000% agree. He hid behind a balcony while the real heroes ran out and got mercilessly torn to shreds. He never came face to face with the enemy once. It also took his death to make this movie a success...they were not only glorifying a sociopath but capitalising on his death to give the story extra grittiness. Like merciless killings of innocent women and children wasn't enough.
So sad to see ignorant people being keyboard warriors. You are saying he is a coward hiding on a balcony shooting guys...when you are here sitting in your home, safe, bashing on someone who risked it all. I will never understand people like you guys.
