I had my doubts about 'Lone Survivor' and still haven't seen anything in trailers that convinces, but this early review from The Wrap's Jeff Sneider, who saw it last night in North Hollywood, is encouraging. He says:
...not only does the studio have something special on its hands, it seems to know it, too.
How else to explain Ron Meyer’s attendance? The vice chairman of NBCUniversal introduced Berg, stars Mark Wahlberg and Taylor Kitsch and the real star of the evening, former Navy SEAL Marcus Luttrell, the American hero who wrote the book on which the movie is based and more important, survived the harrowing events it depicts.
He makes the bold claim that 'Lone Survivor' may be a match for Kathryn Bigelow's 'The Hurt Locker'. So, yes, I'm looking very forward to this one.
