Lone Survivor


If there is a movie whose marketing I wanna kick more then Lone Survivor's then it's simply a crime against humanity. Though Lone Survivor gets the job done, the trailer, poster, and advertisements displaying Mark Wahlberg as the "Lone Survivor" really kill a lot of the suspense as to who will make it to the end. It also makes the scenes of Wahlberg fighting alone feel weightless and stuffed. But luckily, Lone Survivor has its' heart and soul from beginning to end. And though you know exactly what will happen to his fallen comrades on the mission (Ben Foster, Emile Hirsch, and Taylor Kitsch), it doesn't make what you're watching break your heart any less.

3/4
