It has only been 6 months since Eastwood released a drama series called Jersey Boys before the American Sniper and he once again nailed it showcasing his directorial skills. Critics are saying a lot of great things about this film like it is tautly made and confidently constructed. Eastwood made it a point that his brand and signature is seen in his work like it's without a doubt, you can tell it is an Eastwood movie.
The film is more moving because it is based on real life. Kyle, who is a rodeo cowboy was searching for something more in his life so he signed up for the NAVY and became a part of the team. The film focuses on this usual American hero who found himself in a very unusual kind of war.
Kyle used to be this local guy from Texas who is stereotyped with a beer in his hand, riding a horse and doing all things that a cowboy does when his life changed since becoming a NAVY seal. He ended up being one of the most lethal snipers in the history of America by killing 160 people using his skills. He has indeed a gift of aggression as what the writers would call it and at the same time, he has a heart to defend his people.
