    I'll wait until it comes out on Netflix. That way I can fast forward to the good parts and ignore all of the silly drama crap.

    It's not just THIS movie, I've never understood ANY movie opening on Christmas day. What people go to a movie theater on Christmas Day?

    Christmas is for celebrating the birth of Christ, being with family, eating too much, and if time allows, sitting in the woods trying to make something dead.......

    huh?.....it's our family tradition and one of the very few times we can get together and relax....we've been going to the movies for probably 15 years now....to heck with all the hustle and bustle that's become Christmas these days.....hard to spend time with my family when i'm in a tree.....to each his own i guess

    I agree, but several of my Jewish friends say that going to the movies on Christmas is one of their traditions......interesting.....never would have figured. They say that about half the folks in theaters on Christmas are Jewish folks. I guess it depends on where you live.
    If it ain\'t accurate at long distance, then the fact that it is flat shooting is meaningless.

    Its got potential, but I hope the details aren't as screwed up as this trailer.

    Maybe its cut from different scenes, but his scope morphs from a Leupy to a Nightforce and back to a Leupy.

    One thing is for damn sure, scopes don't make an audible "Click" when adjusting the magnification. Freaking Hollywood.

    My only faith is that Clint will get it squared away.

    At today's movie prices that is surprising.

    My issue isn't about movie theaters being open on Christmas, that's their choice. My issue is with what this movie is about (the life of an American Sniper, who did his job, but was killed trying to help a fellow soldier back in the US). Christmas is about the birth of Christ but this movie is about the taking of lives. I would rather see this movie open the day after instead of on Christmas.
    That's just my .02 and we all know it doesn't mean much.
