Lone Survivor (2014)

Based on a true story, Lone Survivor is a thought provoking, emotional, action-packed  movie that is also a superb entertainment.

 The cast ( Mark Wahlberg, Eric Bana - the hulk fame, , Ben Foster)  picturesque cinematography, the palpable thrill of the true story and literally stunning scenes in the movie make sure that you are firmly rooted to your seat for the entire movie! :-)

 The movie  in a very telling manner, drives home the message that terrorism has and knows no religion... They have only overshadowed the religion, using it to enforce and spread it's propaganda ...
The Muslim extremists tried to take their lives and ppl of the same religion also manage to save Mark.

The movie also highlights that the mistakes of thoughtless, short-sighted and incompetent politicians and commanders are largely responsible for the death of soldiers - who, after all, are mere mortals likes us ,with beloveds and Children, left shattered and rudderless by their death.  The brutality and cruelty of war will hit you right in the face, making you think of the futility of wars.
