This True Story Is Based on book by Marcus Luttrel. And I must say this is a must read book, and must see movie. Best book I have ever read by Far!!Thank You Marcus! Frog Man

thanks

This is a great movie and such a sad story. The fact this is what our troops are dealing with and yet they are being treated so poorly by the US government is outrageous.

Intense film. Great acting. Told well. Non-stop action. Really makes you think about life & be thankful for those who are out there protecting our freedom. Loved it!!

Movie's rarely live up to a book and this one doesn't either, but I think that they did the best that they could. Turning a 3 hour gun battle and a five day escape/evade into a 2 hour movie would be daunting for any director. I believe they captured the essence of the movie and of course took some "hollywood" liberties with the story, but all in all, they detailed the hatred of the taliban towards the USA and the catch 22 our troops are in (I have 5 deployments to that area). Additionally, Peter Berg got all the military lingo, aircraft types and sounds of all - exactly correct. Well done. The tribute at the end was the right thing to do. The normal citizen should read Lone Survivor regardless of seeing the movie.
