American Sniper according to IMDB directed by Clint Eastwood, and stars Bradley Cooper as Chris Kyle, IMDB describes the movie as...

"Navy S.E.A.L. sniper Chris Kyle's pinpoint accuracy saves countless lives on the battlefield and turns him into a legend. Back home with his family after four tours of duty, however, Chris finds that it is the war he can't leave behind."

The movie went on to gross over $350 million, and also stars Sienna Miller. The film went on to win the Academy Award for Sound Editing, and was nominated for Best Picture, Best Sound Mixing, Best Editing, Best Screenplay, and Bradley Cooper was nominated for Best Actor.

I remember seeing this movie in theatres when it came out and it had such a profound impact on me, it is an incredibly honest portrayal of a true American Hero. To have the chance to go see it again in theatres is fantastic, especially to celebrate the veterans. We here at KICK-FM want to thank all the men and women who have served and are currently serving this country. We thank you for keeping us safe and free, we could not do what we do without you, and so thank you.
