The choice was his
When was the last time you watched a movie trailer that struck with a rod of intensity. We didn’t know what to expect after pressing play but after watching, we had to shake off the suspense. The upcoming film American Sniper follows a U.S. Navy Seal, who is sent to Iraq to protect his fellow command squad during different missions while stationed there. The story is based on Chris Kyle’s autobiography of the same name, which chronicle this sniper’s story, which includes over 150 confirmed kills. As you can see from the clip, the star of the film, Bradley Cooper, is put in a tight spot when he discovers a child is carrying a hand grenade and is running towards a platoon of U.S. soldiers.
Does he pull the trigger or let his heart make the decision? Based on his track record, we can assume how it went down.
The Clint Eastwood-directed film also stars Sienna Miller and Luke Grimes and will screen in select theaters December 25, before getting a worldwide release on January 16, 2015.
