The Fins has formed his own opinion because he does not get out very often!

Lone Survivor is an amazing movie! It is based on a true event that happened, and knowing that, I dont see how anyone could say that the movie sucked. Now I have never read the book, but I do know that the actual survivor helped produce the movie so it has to be somewhat close to what really happened or he wouldnt have approved of it. It brought me to tears several times. I think our country needs a wake up call when it comes to what our troops go through.

Well, I went to see this movie. And it sucks. So many inaccuracies from Marcus's book that it was angering. Especially the battle scene in the village. That never happened. He was also in the village for five days before walking out and finding a ranger patrol that was searching for him.

Whoops, should have been it actually cost $10.50. But a small drink was $5

Actually, it was $12.50. But I think the national average is somewhere around $12 or $14. I think when I was in Miami one trip I caught a movie that was around $16. Add a couple more bucks if it's 3D

Crap. Now I'm getting ads for Wahlbergs. Apparently they have a show on A&E

I don't know why Marcus let them do it. You should pick up a copy of the book and read it. If you know anything at all about BUD/s, then you can skim the first 125 pages. It was clearly very therapeutic for him to write. You can tell it allowed him to vent a lot of anger and guilt

oh okay, disreguard that last question

There was nothing in the book about a compound fracture. They were shot up and kept going, but according to his own book, that is Hollywood making changes.
