I've seen it twice, so far. It is not the typical war movie, not by a long shot, in fact I think the bigger story in the movie was how strong his wife was, and how War can jeopardize a family especially when the Warrior is so deeply devoted to saving the lives of those he protects.
This movie should make people think, Navy SEALS are the baddest of the bad, but at what point do we as a Nation stand up and tell our Warriors, you have done enough? Chris Kyle did 4 tours, and nearly lost his family. I don't know how else to say it but Dude was a Beast, and I am thankful that he fought for me, my family and our Nation, he bled Red, White and Blue. Thank goodness his wife was tough enough to stand up for her husband, even if that meant standing up to her husband.
I liken this movie to End of Watch, not the stereo typical cop movie but rather one that shows you the life but makes you think only AS goes so much further then EoW did, they are both great movies, but American Sniper was fantastic in my opinion.
And Jesse Ventura can jump of a tall cliff to.
