Was This Mark Wahlberg's Response To Tom Cruise For Comparing Acting To Tour Of Duty?

The world premiere of Mark Wahlberg's new marine film 'Lone Survivor' took place on Tuesday (Nov 12th) at the TLC Chinese Theatre in Hollywood. According to The Wrap, the 42 year-old joined the packed audience for a Q&A session after the unveiling of his new movie, and Wahlberg displayed great passion for the armed forces.

Wahlberg's emotion rant begin with targeting privileged Hollywood actors, "For actors to sit there and talk about 'oh I went to SEAL training'? I don't give a f-ck what you did," Wahlberg said.

"You don't do what these guys did. For somebody to sit there and say my job was as difficult as being in the military? How f-cking dare you, while you sit in a makeup chair for two hours."

Some fans have speculated that the 'Pain & Gain' actor was referring to the comments made by Tom Cruise last week. The 'Jack Reacher' actor is in an ongoing lawsuit with a publication who reported that he abandoned his daughter after divorcing from Katie Holmes.

In legal documents obtained by several media outlets, Cruise responded to a lawyer, explaining his long absences away from his daughter while filming were like a soldier's tour in Afghanistan. The 51 year-old used his film Oblivion as an example of being in a war situation.

Wahlberg, who trained with navy SEALS prior to filming 'Lone Survivior', continued to rant, "I don't give a sh-t if you get your ass busted. You get to go home at the end of the day. You get to go to your hotel room. You get to order your f-cking chicken. Whatever the f-ck it is." The rant went on.

The '2 Guns' actor added, "I've done other movies where I trained for four-and-a-half years, I did The Fighter -- f--- all that," he added. "I'm a very lucky guy to do what I do, and I'm proud to be a part of this, but it's just so much bigger than what I do."

Wahlberg's emotional speech got the better of him as he finished by simply saying, "I'm sorry for losing my sh-t. Don't ask any more questions tonight."

The film is based on the failed SEAL Tea 10 mission "Operation Red Wings" and Wahlberg plays navy SEAL Marcus Luttrell.

Following its premiere in Los Angeles, Lone Survivor scored stunning reviews from critics.

Berg's work here is at the top of his range.The film is rugged, skilled, relentless, determined, narrow-minded and focused, everything that a soldier must be when his life is on the line," said Todd McCarthy of the Hollywood Reporter.

"Peter Berg's scorching, often unbearably brutal account of a doomed 2005 military mission in Afghanistan is perhaps the most grueling and sustained American combat picture since 'Black Hawk Down.'" said Justin Chang, Variety's chief film critic.

Charlie Schmidlin of Indie Wire focused his review on the intense horror of Lone Survivor, writing, "A succinct death for any of our main characters would be a godsend; rather, they are ripped to shreds by bullets, impaled on tree branches, and bludgeoned on rocks repeatedly over 45 minutes before a bloody end finally comes."
