I’m glad this movie was made. I was an 11B who ETS’d over a decade ago, so over time people sometimes lose contact with each other. But when the Taliban retook Afghanistan people were coming out of the woodwork to make sure our Terp made it out. It was crazy people reconnecting after so long with the willingness just to go back with zero support from our Government just to make sure our terp “Dave” and his family were ok. Luckily he made it out and is happily living here in the states.

Awesome review guys. Is the title a reference to "Blood is thicker than water"? Most people mis-interpret this shorter saying to mean that family is most important. But the original saying is "Blood of the covenant of battle is thicker than the water of the womb" and references that soldiers that fought together have a stronger bond than even family members. Hence him risking everything to go back for his interpreter.

@ImDudePlayinADude 10 месяцев назад

There is no actual evidence that that is the original saying. There are a few authors (iirc) who make that assertion, but they never provide any evidence. Meanwhile "Blood is thicker than water" in that form was first recorded in the mid 1600s. I think the longer saying is a modern rebuttal because it is more popular now for people to cut themselves off from family.

Probably the most deep and heart-wrenching dialogue in this movie.. If it wasn't enough for him to carry me access the mountains. Now I can't get him out of my fuc*in head. I'm lying in this bed. I kiss my children before they go to school. And he's hiding in a hole somewhere. A hole he can never get out of. A hole we put him in. That wasn't the deal. The deal was that we offered his family sanctuary. But we tied a noose around his neck and kicked the stool out from his under. I should be in that hole. You think he blessed you? Well he fuc*in cursed me. I am a man who gets no rest.

@andrabook8758 11 месяцев назад

it's a sh*t line from a director and writter trying to wring money out of a crap scenario that never occurs in real life, on top of a horrible withdrawl which clearly went wrong. In real life if you suddenly learn that your interpreter was formerly affiliated with a terrorist organization and didn't tell you, you get the fk away from that situation! How many people died bc terrorists sent 'infiltrators" and the US military was too stupid to remove them?? How many? This movie's premise is sh*t! It's a disturbed fantasy from a much of distrubed minds. I never liked Gyllenhaal much, now I like him even less. Guy Richie was always a tool, so not much of a surprise there.... of course he's gonna find something to exploit in every tragedy.

I was in the US Army Corps of Engineers working as a Hydroelectric mechanic supervisor. I volunteered for duty in Afghanistan. I was prior service so it wasnt a big deal. I was in charge of operations and maintenance at the ANA base, camp Sayer, and police stations in Farah Afghanistan. I had to go to these sites, talk to the officials, make inspections and submit reports to my supervisor in Kandahar. I had an interpreter Hamid uhllah that greatly assisted me. Later when I was back in the States, I learned of the troop pull out at Fob Farah. I knew my interpreter's life was in danger and the Taliban would certainly kill him for assisting the US Gov. I managed to get him and his immediate family a special Visa to the USA. He lives in Up state New York now with a job and is buying a house. He told his daughters the story of how he came to the US. His daughters sent me an email with a hand drawn picture of Superman with my name on it. They said I was their "Hero".

@grahamstrouse1165 6 месяцев назад

@@jonathanramos8414One of the things that made Predator so good, and The Predator so scary, was how they established just how badass Arnold & his team were such study badasses early in the film. They had the physical prowess, the tactical skill & a massive arsenal. And then they introduce the Predator & he starts picking them off like it’s nothing-like he’s playing with his food, basically. I forget the name of the actor who played the Predator but he was a literal giant. Arnold’s about 6’2”. The Predator’s actor was something like 7’4”. And the costume made him look even bigger. It was a nice touch. They did something similar in Conan the Destroyer when they signed Wilt Chamberlain onto the movie. Wilt was a little over 7’1”, weighed something like 310 & was a solid wall of muscle.

The series SEAL Team (I know your eyes are probably rolling) used true-kit including plates etc. The actors even ran and filmed completely under NODs for night scenes etc. Tyler Grey (I'm sure you guys are familiar) had input for the series as well as being an actor. The gunfights aren't Lone Survivor quality, but a lot of the movements are at least mostly-realistic (for actors). Any of the really technical acts I noticed are typically performed by Tyler's character (medical, demo, vehicle scenes etc.) which adds to the realism. You guys should check it out.

Like Buck said if you’ve never been shot at you don’t know what it’s like, once you have been though, whether they are missing you by inches or even a couple feet it’s a sound you’ll never forget, that hissing snap of the bullet breaking the sound barrier flying by your head or body you can feel the pressure wave they generate, and you hear that sharp bang as they fire, with outgoing rounds you just hear the boom, and that’s one way to differentiate incoming and outgoing fire.

They're literally there just to 'advise' or suggest and they're definitely not involved in the editing process post-production where things like sound effects might be worked on.

Also with assets if your call comes in for IED strike at the same time another unit is in direct contact you might get the medevac but they are getting the apaches

47:17 They did that for the show Seal Team. They use real plates, ballistic helmets, and the actors are using actual PVS-31s at night. Yea that show has some issues but it's pretty friggin good given the average kit you see in military shows/movies

24:32 Lone Survivor sounds better cuz they used actual guns and sim rounds. The Covenant used high end air soft guns and added the sound effects in post.

Please get to the OG Green Berets John Wayne movie as a kid I loved it! I know it can't compete with modern military films but it was fun to watch as a kid.

You should have a look at Kilo Two Bravo, aka Kajaki. Great film about a British unit in Helmand that's based on real events.

I think they had to use air soft guns in this movie where Lone Survivor used a lot of blanks and real guns. The reason for the switch was said to have something to do with the Alec Baldwin thing. I believe the use of air soft guns is what causes the feelings of “something is missing and something doesn’t feel right” with the gun fighting. I heard this somewhere online so take it as you will. Great video!

From the way you describe it I feel like they took Luttrell’s story and sprinkled some extra stuff in there. He redeployed after Red Wing and was able to get the guy who saved him out of Afghanistan.

@warpigs4life 11 месяцев назад

@@frostbite1963 Oh my bad I forgot when when they make a movie based off a true story they always keep things exactly how it happened in real life. Like in Once upon a time in Hollywood the Manson family didn’t murder anyone because they got burned with a flamethrower instead.

The whole time watching this movie I kept on seeing Jake's character as an on screen personification of Cole Fackler from GBRS Group. Mannerisms, facial expressions, tonality, all extremely similar.

Most DEF, if they woulda added UTM's in the combat scenes, that alone woulda elevated this movie even higher. Great episode of B&B, glad you guys loved this movie as much as WE did.

@ryanb-ol2pf 4 месяца назад

you guys are right about the gun sounds, it truly makes a big difference, one thing i think makes Lone Survivor gun fight more realistic is that theres no music playing, like the beach in Saving Private Ryan, to me music takes that realism away. saying that, its still very meaningful when done right, like when Mike Murphy decides to make the call knowing he wouldnt make it.

@jemoj2010 11 месяцев назад

Another item missed in final battle scene is when Jake goes dry, at least he says, he’s out. When he walks onto the bird, he has one mag left. Maybe he cross loaded when he got picked up and I missed it. Nit picking.

I hope the filmmakers of ones like these see these kinds of reactions. It would be the ultimate validation to have the real-life people I made a movie about to get so excited about what I made.

Looks to be a ballistic ops core fast helmet. Iiia rated. A bump would have holes on top. Should be a polyethylene pistol rated one. If it was the rf1 it could handle .30 cal rifle or the ech. Fast costs 2k$ rf 1 is about 3k$ and rhe ech is about 600.$
