I can think of no movie that was as good as the book it was based on. So that's just about as close to given as you can get.

My wife and I saw American Sniper this weekend. A very powerful movie.
Its not about war so much as it is about a man and his life before, during and after war.

I was impressed by his heart and desire to do good. I think it speaks highly of American soldiers in general and the desire to help others. This quality is what makes America, as a whole, great.

The theatre audience was completely silent during the exit. Most stayed just about all the way thru the credits.

I would pay to see it again.
