Review of Lone Survivor (2013) by Zachary M — 19 Feb 2017

Here we see a lot of familiar faces. Woodrow from True Detective is back and heroic and handsome as ever. The two dueling antagonists from Alpha Dog are back, and it's a little unnerving to see them on the same side.

Mark Wahlberg is more rednecky than normal and fits his role quite nicely. This movie gives a nice insight into the American military. There is a training montage at the beginning that's well done.

Then you just see some barracks life, and for the first time in my life I actually thought it might be fun to be a navy seal. Of course that goes out the window when the action starts. The action scenes were all well done but there were two in particular that were literally painful to watch.

This movie didn't have an anti-islam vibe. I would recommend seeing it when it comes to the movie channels at least once.
