Review of Lone Survivor (2013) by Haren K — 10 Jul 2014
The most inspiring, eye opening and realistic movie I have seen in a very long time that's based on real events. Mark Wahlberg did a phenomenal job as an actor portraying Marcus Luttrell. The other actors get a standing ovation as well for their outstanding roles and how dedicated they were to making sure they stayed true to each SEAL member they portrayed and did an amazing job honoring them as they were before this tragedy.
Marcus Luttrell did an outstanding job in his role playing a SEAL team member (most don't realize he starred in the movie) and I admire his strength and determination to not only go through with the making of the movie but also the telling of his horrific and traumatizing ordeal.
He not only lost his brothers, he lost a huge part of himself. Mark Wahlberg said it best when he said this movie has made him want to be a better man and has given him a new respect for the brave men & women of our armed forces.
Hands down, the best true-events based military movie of ALL time! It's a MUST see. Also, read the book Lone Survivor by Marcus Luttrell for the full story and all details that were not able to be put in the movie.
