Lone Survivor is based off of a true story, set in Afghanistan 2005. Before anything else, you already know that this is true, and only one out of four SEALs will come out of this situation. The NY Times review kind of states this, that you're not exactly thinking, "Is he going to die?", because you already know what's going to happen. The question is, how each one of them dies. They're not laying down, but fighting for each other to stay alive. By the time this movie is over, you have to realize, this happened. You would wish this wasn't a true story, but it is. It was the harsh reality in Afghanistan that 18 SEALs died in the operation, operation "Red Wings". Overall, it is a great movie, with great angles and slow motion as they capture every painful moment of their continuous jumping off cliffs and hills as they slam into trees and plummet into the ground. As they get shot, some 12 times each before they go down. The move itself was shot beautifully. The lighting, the scenery, and the angles were great, just as good as the action. It's a great movie, go see it.
