AMERICAN SNIPER

(2014) 132 Minutes, Rated R

Bean's Review: An extremely well done adaptation of an extremely tragic story.  Chris Kyle, a US Navy Seal, played brilliantly by Bradley Cooper, is a hero killed by another veteran.

Bradley Cooper steps right into the shoes of Chris Kyle.  As I have only seen Cooper in comedies (i.e. Hang-Over), I would never have thought he would be able to accomplish this portrayal.

Clint Eastwood does a fantastic job of directing and adapting the story to a movie.

Best scene: when Kyle shoots and kills the al-Qaeda sniper, Mustafa

Bean’s rating:  Definitely worth full price ticket, however, due to the sadness of the story, I would have preferred watching it at home.
