I really like Clint Eastwood movies and Mystic River is among my favorite ones.
American Sniper is the story of an American sniper in Middle East war over several years. The movie is beautifully shot, but I really did not connect with the main character, nor the other ones. I prefed way better Black Hawk Dawn (Ridley Scott). What I really do not get is the patriotic ending, with real footage of his funeral parade.
Why the sniper is considered a hero (ok he saved other soldier's lives) if he killed so many people?
If you want to see a movie about war (not war movies) I suggest:
