Movie Analysis : American Sniper

U.S. Navy SEAL ,Chris Kyle was just the average die hard Texan. He aspired to become a cowboy, but it wasn’t working out in his favor. After seeing the horrors of terrorism on 9/11 he was ready to fight for his country and enlisted into the military. He goes on to fight in four tours and becomes the deadliest sniper in American history. After each tour, he felt that he had to go back. He had two goals that he couldn’t give up on; protecting his team and taking out the deadliest enemy sniper, Mustafa. Chris would not stop until he achieved his goals, when he finally did, he faced a new battle. He struggled with normal daily life, but even then he persevered and found a new passion to aid him. Throughout this film, Clint Eastwood portrays the theme of perseverance through the use of setting, camera angles, and the main character Chris Kyle.

Saving Private Ryan is not a romantic, feel-good movie, but it is probably one of the best movies released this year. It is without a doubt one of the most realistic films produced. Each person that I spoke with, and all three of the internet criticisms that I read voiced positive opinions about

‘The Patriot’ is a movie which included several differences and similarities to the actual history of the American Revolution, including a bias against the British. Directed by Ronald Emmerich, the movie was a depiction of the American Revolution, with Benjamin Martin as our strong and fierce main character.

The appeal of this movie comes from the idea of the noble-savage. A warrior who is finding their own path. After 9/11 and the US starting the crackdown in the middle east this idea can seem appealing. A way to make one feel better about going to kill innocent people.

The opening scene of the movie American Sniper, “which tells the story of Chris Kyle, a Navy SEAL who shot his way to 160 confirmed kills in Iraq,” (Buckley) starts out when Chris Kyle was just a child and him and his father are out in the forest shooting deer and him beating up a bully who was picking on his little brother at school. Later on into Kyle 's young adulthood he made a decision to quit being a cowboy rodeo star and instead enlist with the Navy SEALS in 1998. During this time Kyle meets his future wife. Then, once after the trauma of 9/11, the war in Iraq puts Kyle to work as a sharpshooter, and the film shows his skills as frightening and strange. From this point, the arc of the film essentially follows Kyle across his missions as a sniper. An important element of the plot is his face-off with an enemy sniper Mustafa, A Syrian sniper who was a former Olympian rifleman, who Kyle does manage to take out near the end of the film. Kyle was shot and killed later on by a veteran who he was actually trying to help. Even though every Iraq citizen isn 't a terrorist, American Sniper should be known for its stereotypes against race because the invisible norm of the white dominant culture and the display of the male body, white males in particular. Also to add to that the movie is showing the masculine spectacle and its collapse by portraying Iraq and how all they want to do is kill Americans.

The idea of the movie American sniper was to look inside the life of Americas greatest sniper Kris Kyle. And how he lived his life. In my opinion the film American sniper directed by clint Eastwood achieves its purpose very well because it showed how Kris Kyle lived his life and how they fight the Taliban I think this film would appeal to ages 15-50 because the movie is full of action and it is a good movie.

The main story that the story is based is the mission where Tom Hanks is the leader of a small group of men assigned to find James Ryan and to bring him home. This movie includes a great combination of emotion and determination to find the last remaining brother in the Ryan family. The journey of Hanks and his six chosen men begins from the infantry division to Neuville in which they meet many squads and had to fight in different places to find a man. This movie is a perfect display of a war movie and the reality of the soldiers who fought in the war. The extreme combination of emotion, violence and the harsh reality of war and the world unknown to most of us has made this movie a must see movie. This movie shows a great example of characterization in which all the actors had played an important role to make this movie a remarkable one and break down and terrify the persons who had been to that

Saving Private Ryan is considered one of the most historically accurate war movies ever produced. However, no movie could correctly duplicate the struggle that was faced and the fear that was shared among all of the soldiers. The movie is mostly centered around Private Ryan, a soldier during World War II, whose three brothers have died in combat. Not wanting his mother to lose her last son, eight men are given the mission of finding Ryan so he may be sent back home. The movie shows the difficulties that these eight men face while searching and still trying to win the war.

I’ve always had a particular fondness for movies that made me think. I love long, drawn out movie scripts that include lots of plot twists, where the movies intent and message is not always clear right up front. This particular reason is why I chose to evaluate the movie American Hustle. I really enjoy watching this movie because of the overall story, the characters, and the actors that were cast in this production.

While these articles show a great breadth or power they have not fully detailed or described the focus of the film, helping those who suffer from posttraumatic stress disorder, and other mental health disorders, and returning them to closest previous version of their selves. Further study and research should continue in the field of posttraumatic stress disorder because if it halts, where it currently stands, we will continue to lose our most valuable resource of society; the individuals that make-up our communities. In order to treat any injury, we should understand what causes the injury, symptoms, and how to treat the injury properly.

American Sniper gives you an idea of what's it like to be there with them in action. You can just see and you can just picture your self there with them that why I think this book gives you a good example of what war is. Chris Kyle was no special author that wrote books for a living but just wrote this

The film “American Sniper”, directed by Clint Eastwood, broke box-office records with a staggering $107 million in opening weekend; despite the controversy surrounding the film, it is films like “American Sniper” that help lessen the bitter taste in America’s mouth. “American Sniper” is a film adaption of Chris Kyle’s autobiography detailing his life and four tours overseas as a Navy SEAL. After opening weekend of this much anticipated film, there were several first hand accounts of movie goers leaving the theater who described their experiences leaving the theater as silent and eerie as opposed to the usual raucous that ensues after a movie has concluded. “There is a battle between good and evil in this world, and we send our very best to fight it, and sometimes evil wins. And those of us who stay home have no idea what it’s like to fight that war. When we get a tiny glimpse of it on a screen, it humbles us. That’s why we’re silent.” (Hemphill) I believe that the American population should be giving their full support and appreciation of those selflessly risking their lives despite whatever our opinions are of war. As those who are selflessly risking their lives to make our homeland a safer place are true heroes. “I didn’t risk my life to bring democracy to Iraq. I

It shows what the normal American soldier would go through daily life. What traumatic effect there would be on him and family in the long run. When us U.S, culture see this we feel terrible and want to do something to fix the situation. To make a greater society is we have to go with the flow and realize that what that man was doing, was to make us save her in the United States. In this movie we have to take out the dangerous group so they can’t keep

This film is full of moral and ethical issues as most war movies are because they contain many situations that deal with the use of morals and ethics. The movie has many ideals that are discussed in our textbook such as vengeance because when he loses some of his teammates they all want to go out and kill the bad guys to get payback for their friends that were killed. The movie also contains retribution because when one of their own soldiers dies they want to kill the enemy since they believe if they lose a person then one of their enemies must die. The movie also dealt with rehabilitation because Chris Kyle was known for helping other veterans to feel better about themselves no matter what injuries they’ve had to deal with and to help them
