Lone Survior was a good movie but ending is total BS (spoilers)

You need to read the book. They were all shot multiple times and kept fighting until they died. Marcus Luttrell, the lone survivor of Operation Red Wing, broke his back and his leg on the final cliff dive the SEALs took off the mountain - and still continued to fight.

Read the book

I Said the same thing and everyone got mad at me. I totally agree no way that someone is that badass. Also their is no one alive to back up his claim. I don't know but i smell bull shite

Why don't you read the book. They did take that kind of a beating. After you read Lone Survivor, read Service by Marcus Luttrell. He talks at length about how long it took him to recover from his injuries and how hard his second tour was because of the injuries he sustained in Operation Red Wing. He also talks about how his injuries forced him to retire from the Seals.

You need to rethink the title of this thread a-hole. It wasnt total B.S. Some references were slightly exaggerated but that doesnt change the fact that it was a 4 man SEAL team on a mission gone wrong, in which three of them died. Did you think it was going to be 100% accurate to every minute detail? Did you want a fricking 6 hr film? They were all shot multiple times except for Lutrell, and they all continued to fight until the death. The movie showed that and showed in fairly accurate detail how a SEAL team acts as a single fighting unit. The point of the movie was to show how the 4 men died, and here you are splitting hairs critiquing the ending of a film because it wasnt totally accurate. Yes, there never was a battle in the village. Yes, he was never abducted by the Taliban and almost beheaded. So fricking what? Does it make the story of what actually happened to those men any less real? This is an opinion board, but some of you sure take that a run with it showing no respect for the real world. What a fricking dick you are. Im sure Peter Berg and Lutrell are very dissapointed that your movie-going experience wasnt completely fulfilled.

My son was not in this movie.......but he has met Marcus and worked with his brother. I believe Marcus brother is a twin. Let the "Tidehaters son is not a seal" begin.....lol.
