How can you not make a top 10 list?! Lol.

As for those, not seen brothers and thought American Sniper was garbage.

I need to see too many again before properly ranking.

It was to be expected that you'd think American Sniper would be garbage. You root against America for some reason.

It's not about rooting for/against the US. I thought it was a decent film about an unsympathetic asshole in a setting I have less interest in. Objectively it was a pacey action-filled war film that took seriously the PTSD side but washed away the racist side of the main character to make it palatable to the mainstream.

I wouldn't seek it out, but I won't be offended by people including it in a list. Just seems odd to not add 8 more to the list. :P

That's about as terrible of a description of that movie as we'll ever see. Lol.

I can't add 8 more. Gotta watch 'em to rank 'em properly.

Your call. Like reign I'd assume there's done that don't get repeat viewings too often. But there we go.
