naomi 343 Posted December 14, 2017 Eastwood's movie on the takedown of the terrorist on the train in France with the actual guys playing themselves; I'll see it. This must be a first. No spoilers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
naomi 343 Posted December 14, 2017 YT comment: BORING. Take a five minute scene (couple of Americans tackle a gunner on a train before he could do anything. FIN) and turn it into a full movie. Based on a True Event....then add some made up stuff to give the movie some more fluff. The main reason this movie was made was to win awards. -- And I completely understand that sentiment BUT given Clint's age I doubt the last sentence is the reason. I think he was truly impressed by what happened and wants the same fire to be lit in others. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wiffleball 4,631 Posted December 14, 2017 I bet the scene where he talks to an empty chair is riveting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wiffleball 4,631 Posted December 14, 2017 This reminds me of a movie, I think it was called Uncommon Valor or something like that. They had actual Special Forces guys doing a fake Special Forces movie. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Id rather see a true story than a true story plus some bullsh!t that Eastwood made up. Even if its not as interesting Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
