Episode 93 - American Sniper

  Director Clint Eastwood delivers the controversial 'American Sniper', based on the memoir of Chris Kyle, the most lethal sniper in American military history.  All the commotion surrounding this movie minimizes the excellent performance at it's core. Bradley Cooper embodies Kyle as a man uncomfortable with his notoriety and plagued with post-traumatic stress.  He's an endearing character - and Phil and Andrew discuss this box-office hit strictly as a stand-alone film and not an adaption of the memoir.  This is clearly the most hotly debated film to come out in a long time and our film criticizing duo address the conflict head-on.
