Lone Survivor' hits home and hits hard.

The film effectively assaults its audience almost as aggressively as its subjects.
William Goss, Film.com
Rotten
The film's director, Peter Berg, wants to immerse you so deeply that you feel as if your bones are breaking, too. There's a price, of course, for that kind of immersion: It becomes tough to see the movie for the drum-beating.
Wesley Morris, Grantland
Rotten
Lone Survivor is a brutally effective movie, made by people who think that they're serving their country. But they're just making us coarser and more self-centered.
David Edelstein, New York Magazine/Vulture
