Bradley Cooper, 'American Sniper' Widow Join Forces To Tell Story | TODAY - Розваги
Funny that you can hear he still retained some of the Texan accent when he's talking during the interview
Crazy how much bradly looks and sounds like him
Everyone calling the movie "propaganda" and saying it "glorifies war" COMPLETELY missed the message of the movie. Yes, it was a story of Chris Kyle the sniper. But it was SO much more than that.
people are STUPID!!! war movies have been going on in america since day fucking one of movie making!!!!!!!!!!! people like to sit behind a computer and cry about the popular things is all!!! well, the movie isn't fucking going away for these hippy fucks....
John_Peisithanatos I think you might have missed the movie's message too. It wasn't a "war movie". It had a pretty serious message about soldiers and what they go through and how they deal with that. They return and it takes time to acclimate back into normal life, and it's a terrible struggle. THAT is what this movie is about.
spaztickolon no I know THE BOOK. I didn't see the movie....yet! I just like to see the people cry about it and defend it...they make things a circus as if all your opinions fucking matter, in reality they do not! I don't feed the jew machine by going to the movies....I wait to buy it at a used cd/dvd store here or ppv it.... suffered PTSD from fucking nam man! he joined in 2967 went to war in 1968 at age 18! he was in fucking hue city!!! they made a film about that called full metal jacket!!! I know what war does seen it in my father!! I don't need you to fucking explain!
John_Peisithanatos "jew machine"??? The rest of your post is rambling and bizarre! Get some help, seriously.
They didn't Know him, read his book or watch the movie. Typical uniformed ignorant Lib crowd playing follow the leader only as long as they are popular and rich.
Bradley Cooper is a great actor.
@V A No, he's a great actor.
@V A He was also good in Silver Linings Playbook, Star Is Born, American Hustle and Burnt. Well, that's just my opinion.
@V A Even Lady Gaga would disagree with that statement. Bradley literally produced, directed, wrote, and starred in the movie. It was HIS movie and even Gaga would say that. Bradley is a great actor btw
All the power to Taya, a woman to look up to.....Bless her!!
I still cry at the movie it's heartbreaking
me 2
It broke my heart, 2 hours of my life I will never get back, were has Bradley Coopers career gone, ask yourself why kids get shot, because you watch crap like that, and believe it...
dsahsdouga he killed them to protect the soldiers
@@dsahsdouga 14 year old cod player stole mama's phone again
Same
cannot believe people have the nerve to talk crap about this movie and about chris. the fact he did four tours and died right when he was making his life better is heart breaking. this movie is anti war. chris believed what he was doing was right and everything he did was right. he did everything he could to protect our nation and still felt the need to do more. he is a hero. rest in peace ♡
Cowards and Traitors say bad things about this movie. This Movie was the truth and they don't like the guilty feeling they get for doing nothing and bringing discredit to a real Man is all they know.
acidbath32 by getting real what would I have to do besides serve in Combat and volunteer for more tours when I don't have too? Would I have to agree with TV and popular media and then I would be okay or do I have to make lots of money too but never work a day in my life. What reality are you talking about?
calling someone a hero is subjective-the iraq war was illegal in the first place(No weapons of mass destruction was found -surprise).However I just watched it as a very good movie.
***** Typical right wing republican NRA loving BULLSHIT !!!!!
I agree with you, really, he's a hero.
This movie just touched my soul like few movies have. I've seen it 5 or 6 times, and I'm devastated each time. The portrayal is so real, the story so heartbreaking. His deep need to help protect his guys, and come home and be the husband and father his family deserved. The battle continued. Well done!
I loved the movie. Bradley Cooper was perfect for the part; he portrayed Kyle just has Kyle himself was, and he played the part with the utmost respect. Just like the others who are positive on this movie are saying, it's more than just about Kyle's life - it's about what war is really like and the effect it has on soldiers and their personal lives. Fantastic job by everyone in the movie. It is very much deserving of Best Actor for Cooper and Best Picture in the Oscars.

MisterBaseball200 Bradley Cooper = American Patriot.🇺🇸
@yellow Arrow and your proof?
Respect to her husband for what he did for his country but not only his but two all of us
David Trescher she's a strong woman. God bless her and her family.
You no nothing
He's a liar
*to
Mr. Cooper, doubt you will ever see this, but if you do, I want you to know me and my family truly appreciate you being respectful, proud and honored to do this role. As well as shedding light on the struggles of PTSD, something my family deals with daily. Thank you!
Im so glad that the movie is doing so well in the states. Really good movie.
One of the best movies I have seen. Great movie, sad how much it can change a person. People who are hating on this movie, dont get the fact that it isnt JUST about him. It is about what MILLIONS of veterans go through on a daily and how we are doing nothing for them when they come back, instead we are waiting for them to help themselves. We need to protect the people who protect us. Bradley Cooper was amazing in this movie. Really inspirational, sad, and eye opening. Kudos!
How exactly does someone protect you by murdering people on another continent?
It was preemptive war! The movie is full of lies and bullshit! The main character is a psycho and a liar!
It is really amazing how brainwashed most Americans are..
Mark Horp Mark, perhaps you have been living under a rock when you got your information, but terrorists dont come from "nowhere" the ones he killed come from the middle east. The people he killed, were killing their own INNOCENT people and they likely would of tried to cross the ocean and come over here for the exact same purpose. Are you stupid, or just ignorant? Last time I checked, people willing to blow up themselves or kids, have an agenda beyond their own "continent" it is 2015, this isnt a small battle between two countries, this is a war. The middle east brain washes their kids into hating Americans, when the people in America, arent the ones who send their kids and other people to other countries to blow themselves up, all to prove a point. Please... it is disgusting how most foreigners are too blinded by their biased opinion toward America, to see what the hell is actually going on. Also, you should check yourself when you say "Americans" since ISIS has proven, you dont have to be an American to have your head cut off or be burned alive. Wake up.
cierra janay
Terrorists do not come from nowhere, that is true. For instance, the CIA is a terrorist organization, that is the first tool, to provide training to create terrorist threats, that will "justify" an invasion from the US.
ISIS current state is just another proof of this.
I invite you to read up on shia sunni relations, and over what timeperiods they worked together or against the US.
When you talk about innocent people, you have to realize that there was a civil war going on in Iraq, and which group you saw as evil in the news, was the one the US did not work with at the moment.
Some other facts to think about:
-9/11 had nothing to do with the Iraq war.
-They found no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, and it was a preemtive war, an invasion without any valid reason, just like when Nazi germany invaded Poland.
The middle east does not need to brainwash their kids. The US invaded them and pretty much everyone over there (Iraq)knows someone who have lost a family member because of the invasion. Someone who have been killed by direct or indirect fire.
But the US govt brainwashes their citizens to see nations as terrorist nations, just to make the population go along with whatever they decide to do. This is a major problem since the Govt is ran by businessmen.
Mark Horp Lol you are saying the CIA created ISIS? that is a joke. You make no sense, innocent people are the people who arent on any side, the people who are slaughtered because they live in the middle of a war zone. I am sure you have heard about school kids being killed in the middle east and how ISIS attacked Christians. Just because you believe in a certain God, doesnt mean you are apart of a war, most of those people that got killed and pushed out of their homes, werent even involved with what was going on. A lot of people in the middle east who are against America, dont go to the facts when raising their kids. They make their kids believe America is evil from child birth. I dont know about you, but I have plenty of middle eastern friends who I love, and they even agree with the fact kids there are not raised in good house holds unless their parents were raised well. Hate breeds hate. I was raised to love every culture and I do, but you are saying America is brainwashed, that is hilarious because I am one of the most American people you will meet. The Middle East needs to civilize, bottom line. Throughout the middle eastern history, they have had nothing, but blood shed constantly if people disagree with their ideas or beliefs. Also, do you live in America? most of us hate our own government because they are dumb, there is going to be something huge happen, because people are tired of the government. We are not brainwashed, as much as you foreigners like to ASSUME. I am not saying we are the best country in the world, but we do not have terror cells that behead people and burn them alive. The middle east does and they have had terrorist groups for YEARS, without change. ISIS is a much more violent version of Osamas rat pack. They are like a disease that mutates.
ISIS is indirectly a product of the funding, arming and training CIA did and the invasion that followed. Now, this might seem far fetched, but if you look at the whole chain of events, that is how ISIS became what it is today.
So, you are arguing that the middle east should be subdued so that they can have the "American culture" and way of life, because they are barbaric?
Another little fun fact. USA, since 1776 has had 21 calendar years of peace. That sounds kind of little for a nation that supposedly wants to promote peace and freedom.
The reality is that the USA economy runs on the warmachine.
Beheading someone is better than pressing a button. Do you know why? If you are pressing a button, firing a off a drone or artillery, you are so distanced from the killing, that you do not even need a valid reason. And you DO have torture camps. Yes, they always tell you they do not, until another Guantanamo bay camp pops up.
Unfortunately Americans are VERY brainwashed, as are most western countries, and I come from one. It takes a long time to try to make sense of everything, and it is impossible to understand everything.
But, invading another country is not defending, even tho people like Hitler, Stalin, Bush and Obama would like you to think so.
What a gigantic loss for us all. This old Marine salutes you fallen warrior and all fallen warriors. “Life’s roughest storms prove the strength of our anchor”.
He's a liar with no honor... Rip to all the innocent Iraqi people...
Deeply moving, well portrayed account of one of the people who served so well doing what he loved to do.
i havent seen it yet but i w2 own it ASAP. while at the theatre to see "Unbroken", this was a preview and after it played, i switched seats with my daughter. i glanced back to see who was sitting behind us, and there was an older man with tears streaming down his face. the next night my brother in law(who is a vet from the first gulf war and now a nurse at a VA hospital) brought over the movie "Lone Survivor". it was as intense and real as i hope "Sniper" is. these movies are showing me things i never dared imagine what our military have been through and what they have to overcome when rejoining us. i dont always agree with what happens, but they have my heart. tears flow when i think of these kinds of movies.
I cried through American Sniper. It was too close to home for me. Its good to see a movie based on Fact and truth. Cowards wont agree with that comment though.
Marlene Tombleson a bit more peace is with me knowing Im not the only one that has the issues he has and why. Thanks for your kind words. One thing war does is make give you a greater appreciation for life and good people around you. You never want to let anything bad happen to them. Almost to a fault. Especially those who are kind.
You have honored and represented the whole American nation, because I am Brazilian and have never seen a hero so loved by all, who does not respect is because he has no heart, because this man gave everything for himself, for the sake of his country. Congratulations, Chis Kyle
There will always be haters on something successful. Always. Pay them no mind. No mind at all.
The movie is so good i cant watch it after i watched it the first time. Semper Fi, thank you Chris, you helped us.
Great movie...much respect to Chris Kyle's family and many prayers to them.
Reading the negative comments below are somewhat distrubing. If you don't view Chris Kyle as a hero and embodiment of what it means to fight for freedom, I'm sure that some less understanding country will let you move there.
debra: with all due respect, US citizens do not feel Mr. Kyle ALONE won our freedom of speech. Every US citizen I know would GLADLY lay down their life if the US was invaded. If you kicked us all out: who would be working to pay for all the soldiers and military?
John_Peisithanatos I didnt say EVERY citizen... I said EVERY US Citizen that I know.
I dont know you, do I?
LOL! so you're saying people who don't think like you should not share your country?? *sighs*
Debra Mcdonald,
Had we never went to war with Vietnam, Korea or Iraq we would still have all the same freedoms. The soldiers are not fighting for our freedom. They are fighting to make money for Halliburton, Lockheed and Martin and the oil companies.
Many of the Scandinavian and European countries have more freedoms than we do. Legalized marijuana, prostitution, gambling, same sex marriage less censorship (nudity).
You don't see these countries going to war. Even in the wake of Charlie Hebdo France did not go to war. They protect their soil but that is all.
Why does the USA get involved in so many more wars than Canada? Keep in mind Canada has a lot of freedoms as well. Maybe even more freedoms than most citizens of the USA. I used to live in Detroit and could get Canadian TV Stations. They do not have commercial about joining the armed services to pay for college like the USA. Why do you think that is?
Why does the USA have such a War like mentality compared to other countries?
I think after reading what I wrote you will be willing to admit your original comment was very stupid but it is not your fault. You have been fed propaganda all your life. Now you know better.
adobePC Oh you are jealous, grow up kid.
RIP Mr Kyle, I hope you have been able to find peace :).
I know Bradly Cooper will be one of the greatest legends 100 years from now.
Absolutely love them as a actor and as a person.
Respect to you for the respect you gave the role and to chris
Men...real men like Chris Kyle defend the freedoms that we take for granted here at home. These men die to defend your right of free speech, liberty, and life. And what do you do with these sacrifices? You shun these men, call them "baby killer" and relish in the joy of their death's. If this sounds like you, then I say to you, you are no better than the likes of the evil that Chris Kyle vanquished from this earth and that you should join your brothers in evil to await your fitting justice...punks.
Well said mate!
Did you?
Oh shove it.
Oh that’s cute. Your name is also Chris
@HOW DARE YOU that's the politicians, our soldiers fight for freedom killing terrorists
One of the best books I have ever read, and great movie!!
I watched it and enjoyed it a lot. I didn't realise till the end it was a real story and that he actually died.
It's a great film. Very emotional .
Respect from Egypt . I wish I met you chris
thats right The U.S is # 1
The defintion of a Patriot is: a person who vigorously supports their country and is prepared to defend it against enemies or detractors. If someone is attacking you and your country you defend yourself like a patriot would do. not sit back and say it's unjustise. you are either a Patriot of this country or you aren't.
Patriotism redefined:
"A man may be a patriot without risking his own life or sacrificing his health. There are plenty of lives less valuable" pg.249 A People's History of the United States. "Military men are dumb, stupid animals to be used as pawns for foreign policy" - Henry Kissinger- pg.97 Kiss the Boys Goodbye. Arguably, the worst sentiments to come out of the mouth of a high ranking gov't official, once thought the most powerful man in Washington.
***** Bullshit!!! that's just what Cowards say so they can still say they are a patriot. You are not the same as those who actually do something besides talk about how wonderfully patriotic they are.
Those words were quotes from the book I cited. Words from men long dead and gone you moron.
I have not read the book but now I have too. I don't mind I loved the movie and I bought 8 tickets for it. Best war movie I ever spent money on. Name Calling? Really, what is this the fifth grade?
Unnecessary agreed. I am sorry. I mis-perceived an inflection that clearly was not your intent to convey. I expected that you'd familiarize yourself with the basis for those quotes 'before' responding to me. No excuse for name calling though.
Great film one of my fav
Awesome Movie !! THANK YOU BRADLEY COOPER !! The entire movie theater Applauded !!!! God Bess our troops !
And the book is powerful. Sacred freewill!
Yep! It and the Operator are both powerful
what does it say that an actor who is handsome, talented, rich could be such a man of character and put so much into portraying a hero. he could be like so many celebrities who miss the point of their ability to make life better. I am amazed that he could use his talent for good instead of evil, not something to take lightly.
Chris Kyle is big hero
I was so touched by this movie. Brilliant!
God bless his family! Thank you for your sacrifice! If you have never served in the military really you should shut up! Get out from behind your keyboards and make a difference in the world!
People are always the first ones to call our service members “baby killers” but won’t call our government who put these brave men and women on the frontline for their agenda. You don’t have to like war but you have to understand the sacrifices made
Leif Babin, Chris Kyle's OIC: "Chris Kyle was NOT a dark and brooding guy, in reality, he was absolutely hilarious."
Tony Eafrati, his platoon Chief: "I really liked him a lot. He actually had a good sense of humor, almost immature."
Kevin Lacz, a junior SEAL: "He was extremely humble, he cared a lot about us newguys, he had a big heart."
Never thought i wouldn't wanna see a Bradley Coopers movie
um dos melhores filmes que já assisti, ou melhor dizendo: uma verdadeira historia linda com um final triste, porem, Chis Kyle tem todo o meu respeito e que Deus proteja sempre sua família.
Speak English ffs God dammit write it in English
Now that felt real. We miss you Kyle
The sadest thing is that the real life 'bad guy' that took his life was one from his own home land... 'I wish I could have met you before that tragedy took your life'... We share names and the basic fundamental beliefs as well... We miss you Chris Kyle...
God bless your soul - which I'm sure he has....
The essence of heroism is to die so others can live...
That literally makes zero sense.
I'm Australian and I cant listen enough to the US southerner's accents 👂.
I'm a veteran from Texas. I can honestly say my accent was quite well received when I was in Australia
Bradley should have won an Oscar.
Hope the movie does well.
***** the movie sure doesn't suck, but I don't know about your mother.....
Swamp you suck
***** - You suck.
look at you slaves, running to defend one of the shitties propaganda movie in recent history.
Embarassing neanderthals
***** - Have you even seen the movie?
2020 Respect Chris Kyle
poetic justice
Rest in Peace to Chris Kyle!
SADLY MANY SAVED MEN WILL BE SAD AS WELL. Thanks for service. John P.
It's Our Duty to Serve Those Who Served Us. Chris Kyle
Another Eastwood masterpiece!!!!!
Give that guy some awards
I respect what he did, however me being a Marine who served in Iraq felt that the portrayal of marines was way off in the movie.
enjoyed the movie , and the way people have to adjust after wars is sad. whats even sadder is people putting up silly comments, the man done a job he was trained and paid for.
It is the best movie I’ve ever seen
I love the movie Bradley cooper played the part. Very handsome actor
I love his warm voice too
I would never watch Today, but I will watch a segment about Chris and Taya.
One best film I have ever seen did not know till the end of the film that Kyle would be killed buy a veteran who he just wanted to help and the film was directed buy Clint Eastwood such a powerful true story which brought me to tears at the end
That movie was soooooo good
Aaaaahhh i knew it was something familiar with american snipers actor, it was bradley cooper
Lo mejor
I can't believe the sick things that some write for public view. I sure wouldn't trust my life to you...but, many trusted their lives to Chris Kyle.
Christopher Kyle is an American hero. His widow Taya Kyle is an amazing woman. She had removed her wedding ring. She resumed wearing it, because she is married to her husband. Just awesome.
If you guys dislike Chris Kyle so much then why are taking a minute to comment? Just silly. No point.
Thank you!
Taya is absolutely beautiful!
I would hope people don't look at this as a movie but how realistic it is ,while society is enjoying life ,you best thank Special Forces, SEALS !!!!!!!!
Rest in peace true American hero
can anyone tell me why bradley cooper looks so different in this video, he looks so much older from when he did the hangovers, or even in the american sniper movie
Because Hollywood is all makeup and hairpieces.
Jason Smith He gained weight for the movie, I think that is mostly it. Plus he is pale and clean shaven here and prob never lost the weight since the film.
who cares about what Bradley Cooper really looks like. He is an actor. He is not going around portraying every role he has played in his movies. He looks different than he did in American Sniper because he was not playing himself, he was playing the role of Chris Kyle. What Bradley Cooper looks like is so unimportant in these posts. who cares. It doesn't matter. we are talking about the great portrayal of Chris Kyle, not what Bradley Cooper looks like. You people are so shallow.
I don't understand why there are so many hateful comments below. Watched the movie last night and it was brilliant. Full stop.
People who don't appreciate chris and view him with respect do not understand the underlying dynamics of combat. I'm not in the military but I have read so many accounts that I can at least have an empathetic view of the complex and horrendous underlay of war. War is not perfect but it is the reality of our situation and chris saved lives no matter what way you look at it. Most of his killings were of savages who would love to destroy America to pieces. RIP Chris.
All I know is a lot of young people have died over there. And more vets have died from suicide than the ones who have fought and lost their lives. CRAZYYY !!! Their coming back 50 Shades of F up !!
Bradley did a great job.
Did she say cooper was in Guardians of the Galaxy? I don't remember him being in it lol
He was the voice of the raccoon
As Nat said he voiced Rocket Racoon
Wow John, really? Not everyone knew that, I mean, not like it sounded like him. I knew it was him, but damn, calm your ass down. I think maybe you should get off the internet for being an a@@hole.
lol, ok. Some peoples kids
they did such a good job with this movie! bradleys such a good actor
Estoy viendo desde Argentina
Don't get me wrong: I am 100% behind Kyle and US forces, but the movie was annoying when it showed him on the phone in the middle of a firefight. I don't believe that for a second.
Kyle lies about a lot of stuff when he was alive.
Chris Kyle was a monster. The world is better off without him.
Watch that video.
our loved ones never leave us God says an thats true Chris was inside brad in the film i dont doubt that God works in mysterious way I have respect for Chris Kyle an his Wife for what he did an for the loss of her husband protecting others God wants us to do just that in anyway we can
“War hero”
I think Chris Kyle should be awarded the cog
I love war movies. I love the messages behind them. War movies are my favorite type. I don't care what other people say if it is said that it glorifies war. War is needed in some cases. People have gotten soft toward war. Back then we cheered on our troops and congratulated them when they returned him when they were at war. people are little kids who want every thing PG. I couldn't care less. War changes things to a certain extent.
If you got ambushed. is that the one
@InstaShotBE oh ok I didn't realize that's who he played
Imagine if Kyle was on Op Red Wings with Marcus, Dietz, Axe and Murphy.....talis would've had a baaaad day lol....R.I.P
obviously none of these news reporters read the book and would have realized a lot of the stuff in the movie never even happened and didn't tell Chris Kyle's real story. Granted the movie was to tell the struggle of coming home and what happens to a lot of combat veterans, but hollywood yet again didn't tell the full story of an American hero.
So much that was in the movie was inconsistent with reality (the main one being the implied September eleventh/Iraq War connection. But more than that, so much in the movie is inconsistent with things that Chris Kyle actually wrote in his own book. For example, the film portrays a remorseful soldier who feels is burdened by his kills, this is counter to the things Kyle said himself; "I'm not lying or exaggerating to say it was fun, I had the time of my life being a SEAL"
Bradley did a great job portraying a liar.
she said Bradley Cooper was in gaurdians of the galaxy that was Chris pratt not Bradley Cooper
Taya kyle is a wife of a hero
why the fuck does every video I try and watch skip to the next video on the left hand side all of a sudden starting today?
I had this problem for a whole. Over the related videos on the right, it should be a little button you can click. I believe it says something about automatically playing the next video
***** Typing on my iPad at 3 A.M. at after a night out... Didn't really think it through
"The “freedoms” most Americans think of when they hear the term are enshrined in constitutional and statutory law. They are in no way dependent on the size, scope or even the existence of the U.S. military."
Anyone else notice that the baby Chris (Bradley) was holding was a toy doll??
Bradley looks like Barry Manilow here somewhat
his face looks different...he looks like barry manilow now.
I have been trying to find more conversations/ discussions about Routh and have not been able to find anything about him. Just wanted to put this out there for some of you to think about. PTSD is being claimed, but this guy was a noncombat reservist. I know PTSD doesn't have to stem from combat but that is what he is claiming. I would like to get more views on this good, bad, or indifferent.
A cop friend of mine killed himself because of his PTSD and depression ..If people don't have it, they don't understand it ..we all have a limits in which we break
Routh was an armorer and a reservist. Don't get it mixed thinking going to Iraq makes you a combat veteran. You are correct that he was mentally gone. I am just saying so many people are calling PTSD for anything when they did absolutely nothing. He should have been in a hospital, but not for PTSD.
This story is why I stand for the flag.
and ripp are country apart
