Lone Survivor is a biography drama with elements of action which tells the story of Marcus Luttrell who is a Navy SEAL. Marcus and his team set out on a mission to capture or to kill a notorious Taliban leader Ahmad Shah. Soon upon entering the country they are discovered and they have to fight a much bigger force than they are. They manage to contact the military base and a helicopter is sent, but the chopper is shot down and with it their hope of rescue dies. Soon enough the only survivor is Marcus Luttrell who is saved by a local Afghan man and this is where his story begins. The movie is based on the real life Operation Red Wings which had happened in the year 2005. The movie is ripe with accurate details of how the SEALs operate and that is a big plus for all of the military buffs out there. Another good thing about the movie is that it isn't littered with propaganda, we have had plenty of it and it is refreshing to see an army movie without it. Lone Survivor is action packed, it is one non-stop brutal war scene. There are plenty of slow motion shots as well as close-ups of kills. Cinematography is amazing and it really brings the audience closer to the battlefield. Lone Survivor is an excellent action flicked and anyone who enjoys a good action movie is advised to check it out.
