7. American Sniper
This is based on the real life story of patriot Chris Kyle, Navy SEAL sniper. It parallels his incredible efficiency in war with his struggling family at home. His wife and kids are fighting for him, but he just can’t shake what he has experienced. So many of us can understand that feeling, making this movie so relatable to our military lives. I know I left the theatre unable to speak for a good hour, just letting this incredible story sink in.
