Pat Tillman gave up his professional football career to join the Army Rangers in 2002 -- and became an instant symbol of patriotic fervor and unflinching duty. But the truth about Pat Tillman is far more complex, and ultimately far more heroic, than the caricature created by the media. And, when the government tried to turn his death into propaganda, they took on the wrong family. From her home in Santa Cruz mountains, Pat's mother, Dannie Tillman, led the family's crusade to reveal the truth beneath the mythology of their son's life and death. "The Tillman Story" not only shines a light on the shady aftermath of Pat's death and calls to task the entire chain of command but also examines themes as timeless as the notion of heroism itself.If You Love this movie you can streaming The Tillman Story Full Movie Online without downloading HERE

Review For Movie The Tillman Story
We may never know exactly who shot Pat Tillman on that ridge in Afghanistan or why, but we have a better idea of who he was.Christy Lemire-Associated Press
Bar-Lev's documentary's greatest service isn't in recounting the Army's back-pedaling so much as underscoring how communal needs and family grief don't perfectly align. And that political usefulness may attempt to trump all other rites.
Lisa Kennedy-Denver Post
The Tillman Story clearly lays out exactly what happened that caused Tillman to be blown to bits by fellow U.S.forces -- and the government's efforts to whitewash the story to avoid mounting criticism of the war.
Rene Rodriguez-Miami Herald
Watching the film, emotions range from sadness, of course, to frustration to outright anger. This, truly, is the best we can do? Throwing up roadblocks in front of the truth, not trusting the American people to understand the nature of war...
Bill Goodykoontz-Arizona Republic
Could you imagine how difficult it must have been to pore over records containing the brutal facts of your son's death?
Mick LaSalle-San Francisco Chronicle
[An] uncompromising documentary.
Andrea Gronvall-Chicago Reader
It's no mistake that the film's (anti-)resolving image is a statue of Tillman, frozen in time as a heroic but Sphynx-like riddle. [Blu-ray]
Peter Canavese-Groucho Reviews
[A] brilliant, deceptively complex portrait.
Jeffrey M. Anderson-Combustible Celluloid
Bar-Lev achieves no small feat in parsing out a complicated narrative and picking up on the family's outrage without turning it into a partisan or anti-military screed.
Stephen Saito-IFC.com
... only the very naive could take The Tillman Story as revelatory. It's not the way they tried to make one soldier's death seem romantic that's the real problem. It's that, for us, war has always been the stuff of glory ...
Philip Martin-Arkansas Democrat-Gazette
Like Pat Tillman himself, apparently, Amir Bar-Lev's movie stubbornly refuses to fit neatly into a box and come up with traditional, rousing solutions. Searing.
Richard Knight-Knight at the Movies
The documentary does a fine job of laying out the very personal story. The use of home videos, actual military investigation footage and interviews with fellow soldiers brings to light what happened. Audiences will feel a sense of heartbreaking empathy...
Keith Cohen-Entertainment Spectrum
Reportedly, Bar-Lev wanted to call it I'm Pat Fucking Tillman after the last words of the man himself...My own suggestion would be Blasting Through Bullshit: The Pat Tillman Cover-up.
Sarah Boslaugh-Playback:stl
Leaving The Tillman Story you won't know whether to weep or put your fist through a wall. This documentary from director Amir Bar-Lev is that powerful.
Robert W. Butler-Kansas City Star
This is the kind of movie that makes you mad, that angers you in a way that's fundamental to your place within a democracy.
Bill Gibron-PopMatters
The tragic details of a football hero's death and the ugly efforts of deceitful career generals to hide the truth
Jeff Meyers-Metro Times (Detroit, MI)
What begins as an examination of a coverup blossoms into a fascinating story of the American public and its desire for a patriotic martyr no matter the cost.
Steve Ramos-Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
Storytelling is a matter of life and death
Marty Mapes-Movie Habit
The Tillman Story is an illustrative, cautionary tale, a fact-finding mission that was ultimately stonewalled by Congress, as we witness in heartbreaking footage of the cover-up hearings.
Marjorie Baumgarten-Austin Chronicle
Call it "anti-mythic."
Kelly Vance-East Bay Express
Even if you've read a fair amount about Tillman's famous case, I bet there's stuff here to shock you.
Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)-St. Paul Pioneer Press
This beautifully-constructed film is made even sharper by the contributions of the Tillmans themselves, a highly-intelligent family united in their common goal to seek out and tell the truth.
Kimberly Gadette-Indie Movies Online
Fascinating but infuriating, "The Tillman Story" is probably the most brutally effective cinematic indictment of the Bush-Cheney administration to date.

"We all get dressed for Bill," says Vogue editrix Anna Wintour. The "Bill" in question is 80+ New York Times photographer Bill Cunningham. For decades, this Schwinn-riding cultural anthropologist has been obsessively and inventively chronicling fashion trends and high society charity soirées for the Times Style section in his columns "On the Street" and "Evening Hours." Documenting uptown fixtures (Wintour, Tom Wolfe, Brooke Astor, David Rockefeller-who all appear in the film out of their love for Bill), downtown eccentrics and everyone in between, Cunningham's enormous body of work is more reliable than any catwalk as an expression of time, place and individual flair. In turn, Bill Cunningham New York is a delicate, funny and often poignant portrait of a dedicated artist whose only wealth is his own humanity and unassuming grace. -- (C) Zeitgeist films
Her family home in danger of being repossessed after her meth-cooking dad skips bail and disappears, Ozark teen Ree Dolly (Jennifer Lawrence) breaks the local code of conduct by confronting her kin about their conspiracy of silence. Should she fail to track her father down, Ree Dolly, her younger siblings, and their disabled mother will soon be rendered homeless. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi R
Cave of Forgotten Dreams follows an exclusive expedition into the nearly inaccessible Chauvet Cave in France, home to the most ancient visual art known to have been created by man. It's an unforgettable cinematic experience that provides a unique glimpse of the pristine artwork dating back to human hands over 30,000 years ago - almost twice as old as any previous discovery. -- (c) IFC Films G
Boston bank robber Doug MacRay (Ben Affleck) falls for a woman his gang had previously taken hostage after feigning a chance meeting with her to ensure that she can't identify them in Affleck's adaptation of author Chuck Hogan's novel Prince of Thieves. The son of a tough Charlestown, MA thief, Doug passed on his chance to walk the straight and narrow in favor of becoming a career bank robber. Not only is Doug's crew one of the most ruthless in Boston, but they're also one of the best; they never leave a trace of evidence, and always make a clean break. Over the years, Doug's fearless partners in crime have become something of a surrogate family to him; Jem (Jeremy Renner), the most dangerous of the bunch, is the closest thing Doug has ever had to a brother. But a divide begins to open between the two career criminals when Jem takes bank manager Claire Keesey (Rebecca Hall) hostage during a particularly tense heist, and the group subsequently discovers that she hails from their own tight-knit suburb. When Jem proposes that the gang make an effort to find out just how much Claire recalls about the crime, Doug fears that his volatile partner may do more harm than good and volunteers himself for the job. Later, Doug turns on the charm while pretending to bump into Claire by chance, and becomes convinced that she doesn't suspect him of being the same man who just robbed her bank. As the feds turn up the heat on the gang, Doug finds himself falling for Claire, and searching desperately for a means of cutting his ties to his criminal past. But with each passing day, Jem grows increasingly suspicious of Doug's true motivations. Now caught between two worlds with no chance of turning back, Doug realizes that his only hope for finding a happy future is to betray the only family he's ever known. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
The sprawling slum that towers over Rio de Janeiro is one of the most dangerous places on Earth, and as the head of Rio's BOPE (Special Police Operations Battalion), Captain Nascimento (Wagner Moura) has seen his share of intense situations. When a BOPE mission to stop a jail riot ends in violence, Nascimento finds his job on the line--and BOPE accused of a massacre by human rights activists. But a public fed up with the violence and gangs that plague Rio loves it, and Nascimento finds himself embraced as a hero who gets results. With elections around the corner, he's promoted to Sub-Secretary of Intelligence. In his powerful new post, Nascimento strengthens BOPE and brings the drug gangs that run the slum to their knees-- only to come to the sobering realization that by doing so, he's only made things easier for the corrupt cops and dirty politicians who are truly running the game. After years in the trenches, Nascimento now finds that his new enemies are much more dangerous and, even worse, sitting at desks just down the hall. -- (C) Official Site
