GamerTab That was an excellent one.
Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
alonzoharris-50099 It's hard to not cry at the end. Lone Survivor is a hard film to watch for all the right reasons.
ronirhymes-08776 > I actually thought it was going to be Metal Gear stealth all the way. > I understood that with great cinematography, the movie took a twist. > One of the movies I like to re-watch because BORING is not an option They made a very nice story line and this is why we are watching movies again AND again..
cinemajesty Movie Review: "Lone Survivor" (2013)This outstanding biopic war-movie directed by Peter Berg starring Mark Wahlberg as real-life military black operation (Black Op) in the mountains of Afghanistan surviving U.S. soldier Marcus Luttrell, delivers without overly-executed pyro-technical visual effects an deeply-emotional due to character close-up cinematography by Tobias A. Schliesser in an utmost modern-warfare-realism striving motion picture, which gets fulminate supported by Black-Op initiative team-completing ensemble cast outgoing from Ben Forster and Taylor Kitsch in moving forward with highly-professional military equipment through an already legendary, highlighted daytime forest precision-shooting machine-gun-battle under Academy-Award nominated sound design to complete action entertainment satisfactions in this constant gripping survival story, carried by an convincing performance by leading actor Mark Wahlberg within a title-given "Last Man Standing" scenario.© 2018 Felix Alexander Dausend (Cinemajesty Entertainments LLC)
csigafattyu Yes, this was a very disrespectful title, and I apologize right away. I didn't mean to offend the actual servicemen or anyone else in real life. But this movie was simply boring and dull for anyone who is not American. Even for a military history buff like me.They say that life writes the best screenplays. Well, this one wasn't worth watching. Just because something dramatic and terrible actually happened, it's not necessarily movie material. What we got is a docudrama which hardly documents anything the world should care. Here is what happened:America started a war. America sent in some soldiers. Yeah, Navy SEALs, I got it. Many people were killed, finally the Americans had their asses kicked too. Then they made a movie about it. "Hey, look how terrible this war was!" Aww, poor America, you got spanked again? Wanna cry about how your well-paid volunteer mercenaries were shot at? Poor guys. Some even died? Oh my God.Who is the hero: the one inserted into enemy territory with the world's best equipment to go kill and destroy... or the one who picks up a battered AK with no training and face them on his own soil, in his own village, not running away even when dozens of his buddies, many of them family members, bite the dust against these invincible bipedal killing machines?For a non-American, this is a miserable movie, and there is little pride in what it depicts. The Germans could make a similar movie about an SS raiding party attacking a Russian partisan village. The Russians could make a similar one about their Afghanistan war.The greatest problem with this movie is that it tries to depict the main characters as some heroes. They are not heroes. They may be in their compatriots' eyes, but anywhere else in the world they are merely victims of war. The same kind of victims as those "haggies" who die in a split second here and there throughout the movie. Who cares what any of the Afghanistani victims wanted to buy for their girlfriends as a birthday present? On the other hand, who the heck cares about that stupid horse? Yes, we got it, this guy will be the first to die. And the cute rookie boy will also die pointlessly, it's also obvious from the moment he shows up on screen.There is nothing this movie can provide for its viewers' improvement. It's a hypocritical, dull war movie, regardless that it's based on real events. The acting is excellent, but there is little to excel in characters who merely shoot, fight, stab and roll down hills. I give it though, the fight scenes are masterfully scripted and executed. But that's why we have Hollywood.I would like to see the same movie from a Taliban fighter's viewpoint. They may be assholes, but they were fighting the same war. I am sure their families were mourning after the battle too.
