Although gripping and intense, it's not nearly as thematically powerful as other war films. But what "American Sniper" lacks in freshness, it more than compensates for with some high class filmmaking and Bradley Copper's authentic portrayal of Kyle.

Generic right wing modern military movie in the vein of Blackhawk Down. Nothing original at all here. It was based on a true story, in which the actual Sniper was murdered, so it gained extra attention. A lot of the attention also seems to stem from the fact that it is unapologetically patriotic, pro-war and anti-Islam, which are seen as huge positives by the Fox News crowd. It wasn't a bad movie, it just wasn't that good either.
