Lone Survivor (Netflix)

[g5000]

This movie is being removed from Netflix on February 29.

This is about four Navy SEALs on a mission which went horribly wrong in Afghanistan. Some liberties are taken with the facts of the actual events.

It is disputed whether the goatherders they let go alerted the Taliban. The Taliban arrived way too quickly, and most likely were alerted by others in the area who heard the SEALs being dropped off.

The beating these guys take in the movie will have you flinching.

Good patriotic stuff. A fun watch.

Enjoy!

Great movie.

Saw it when it came out... I remember it as being pretty good.
And is an example of why soldiers get PTSD, and why they deserve significant and unwavering help and support when they do.

 

[BULLDOG]

Is this the one where they drop 4 nekkid people off on an island, and they have to survive on nothing but what they can forrage, and sandwiches given to them by the film crew?

You are sick.

Based on Marcus Luttrell's best seller. Lots of action with bearded unconventional warriors but even Mark Walberg couldn't turn it into a hit.

You are sick.

As I retired veteran, I get to decide what's a fun watch, not you.

What on earth does being a retired social program recipient have to do with gleefully enjoying portraits on film of American soldiers being beaten?

...a retired social program recipient...

There's that fake patriotism we have all come to recognize in Trumptards.
