Movie No. 15 (2015): AMERICAN SNIPER
American Sniper (2014)
Director: Clint Eastwood
Cast: Bradley Cooper, Sienna Miller
The indication of an outstanding performance by an actor is when he completely disappears in the character. Bradley Cooper does just that and he's consistently into the Chris Kyle character. Chris Kyle was the greatest sniper in US Military. The movie alternately presents his exploits to protect his brothers-in-arms in Iraq during his four tour of duty and his family life back home in the US. The movie achieves in showing the psyche of someone who's been addicted to war, which was also the thesis of The Hurt Locker.
