This is what Sarah Palin has to say about American Sniper

The Clint Eastwood-directed biopic of American sniper Chris Kyle, named um American Sniper, has broken box office records but also polarised opinion in the US.

Fahrenheit 9/11 director Michael Moore said that snipers should never be glorified, while Seth Rogen, whose latest film The Interview caused a major diplomatic incident, likened it to a fictitious Nazi propaganda film.

This has led to an angry counter-reaction on the American right, with figures such as Sarah Palin and Newt Gingrich jostling to be at the forefront.
