Chris Kyle (Bradley Cooper) was nothing more than a Texas man who dreamt of becoming a cowboy, but in his thirties he found out that maybe his life needed something different, something where he could express his real talent, something that could help America in its fight against terrorism. So he joined the S.E.A.L.s in order to become a sniper. After marrying Taya (Sienna Miller), Kyle and the other members of the team are called for their first tour of Iraq. Kyle's struggle isn't with his missions, but about his relationship with the reality of the war and, once returned at home, how he manages to handle it with his urban life, his wife, and kids.Written by

So this movie shows up a life of a kid who wanted no-fear and became a marine soldier and even more, a SNIPER! Bradley Cooper gives an extraordinary performance by showing Chris Kyle's life in the battlefield and with his family and how his thoughts & actions in the battlefield and his personal life get all mixed up and affect him in his personality. I very enjoyed the movie and it was quite interesting and as a person who loves actions and battlefield movies - it's certainly one of the best. Go WATCH IT!
