More stars speak out about "American Sniper"
Several celebrities are coming out in support of the military and Clint Eastwood's new film "American Sniper."
The comments come as Seth Rogen tweeted that the film "kind of reminds me of the movie that's showing in the third act of Inglorious Basterds," and filmmaker Michael Moore sparked talk about snipers when he wrote that they "aren't heroes."
Now some celebrities are actively throwing their support behind the movie, while others are taking direct aim at Moore.
Blake Shelton is among them. "Sickens me to see celebrities or anybody slam the very people who protect their right to talk s**t.. #truecowards," he tweeted.
