Lone Survivor (out Feb 20) is based on a 2005 true story and follows four U.S. Navy SEALs who were part of a team trying to gather surveillance on an important Taliban leader. While some moments feel a bit formulaic, you get a clear sense of the panic these guys felt and the hopelessness of their situation. An intense film. Grade: B+.
