The making of doc is an excellent companion piece to the film as well. It really goes into detail regarding the films end and how it all unfolded.
I have seen American Sniper before and had a problematic relationship with Chris Kyle, particularly the way he dehumanised the people he was executing, referring to them as 'savages' in his autobiography.

I'm looking forward to watching it again to see if I have a different reaction now so much time has passed since the events depicted in the film.
