American Sniper

American Sniper (2014) is the Clint Eastwood war drama you can watch online on iFILM. It draws on the memoir of Texan Chris Kyle, a Navy SEAL whose name was whispered with dread across Iraqi neighborhoods. Bradley Cooper, who packed on close to forty pounds for the part, carries the film.

A rodeo cowboy who enlisted after a terror attack, Kyle ends up on the rooftops of Fallujah with a rifle, watching over the men in the streets below. Shot after shot, his tally climbs to a number no American soldier had reached before. Insurgents put a bounty on his head and call him the devil. Four tours. Back home wait his wife Taya (Sienna Miller) and two kids, who keep facing a man whose mind never quite left the war zone.

Eastwood wasn't filming heroics so much as the bill that comes due when a soldier returns: a quiet living room can roar louder than gunfire. The film earned six Academy Award nominations and became the highest-grossing war movie in U.S. history. Stream American Sniper (2014) online on iFILM.
