LONE SURVIVOR


GOD-DANG!!! I wanted to buy something interesting about combat and the war in Iraq for my great son, but now I’m hoping that it’ll be awhile before he comes to pick it up, I must have watched 6 times already and this is a movie you cannot interrupt to watch it after you’ve done something else (unless it’s something that’s done in the bathroom J).
Anyway this is a true story about these marines, what they do, who they fight and how, including how their actions make them feel and also very much about the way they feel about having gifted their lives to our country.
This is really a MUST SEE movie that receives all my thumbs up (hopefully no more than 2J) with the bid advice to watch it with as many friends (or simply people you know) as you can WITH as much beer or alcohol you can fit in your home (any guess about how much it can be?), the actions, the use of weapons and the attitude of these soldiers, are just like an injection of caffeine! The first time I watched – at 3pm – I was awake with my pupils wide open till 3 am. Talk about sniffing a pound of cocaine…….
However, watching it, made me feel how much disabled I’ve become and if I add that I’ve been watching on my Amazon Prime several documentaries about scuba diving (my most beloved sport that had me become a PADI scuba instructor) in some of the beautiful diving location of the world, with the sad knowledge that scuba diving is a loss much like all the other ones, that’s going to live only in my memories of my beautiful past (and defunct already) life that – unless the “impossible” will happen, they all just remain memories for me while I’m living BUT given that they are what my conscience is made out of, will create my wonderful afterlife, where I’ll be scuba diving, playing my grand piano in a beautiful villa in northern Sardinia.
