I hope the film makes a mint like American Sniper, Scully and of course the (non Eastwood) film that used real SEALs as the principle actors, Act of Valor. It's such a slap in the face to the pretentious narcissism of H-wood elitists who like to think that they are some sort of higher species with supernatural, singular qualities far above those of mortal men. ****slapping Eastwood and his Malpaso production company are the shiznit!!

"Acting is a vastly overrated profession, in my opinion. As a professional, I do not consider myself to be on the same level as say a surgeon, architect, astronaut or police detective. Those people all have real jobs and I am in awe of many of them in comparison to what I do for a living. Building skyscrapers, saving lives, professions like that impress me - not reading lines in front of a camera. An actor reads lines. That's basically it. I don't hang out with many actors or other Hollywood types. I find the company of others from outside "the Industry" to be preferrable. Largely, I find Hollywood and Hollywood types to be very boring company." - (Sir) Anthony Hopkins
