American Sniper 2014

The story of the deadliest American sniper during the Iraki War. The movie very patriotically shows the American sniper defending his fellow soldiers, while the Iraki are shown as brutal butchers. Surely there is place for Iraki patriotism as well? Surely some iraki soldiers were motivated by the same honorable patriotism that motivated the Americans? Alas, the Iraki's are merely one-dimensional, while the American is the hero.

But the service in the army came at a price. The movie very realistically shows the American sniper having trouble readjusting to life back home. And there are very subtle hints that the same was happening to the antagonist Iraki sniper. The life of a soldier is certainly brutal. No mentally adjusted person can kill other people (even in war) and not damage their soul.
