Seth Rogen has said that 'American Sniper' was just like a "right wing propaganda film for the Iraq War."

Clint Eastwood's totally bombed at the box office this weekend, even though it got its share of liberal detractors, and Rogen, 32, took to Twitter to share his views saying that it "reminds me of the movie that's showing in the third act of 'Inglorious Basterds,' referring to a flick called 'Stolz der Nation' which shows a German sniper killing 200 Allied soldiers from a clock tower, TMZ.com reported.

Rogen, whose movie 'The Interview' caught political fire recently, was backed by Michael Moore who chimed in, saying "My uncle was killed by sniper in WW2. We were taught snipers were cowards. Will shoot u in the back. Snipers aren't heroes. And invaders r worse."

Despite the comments, the film has managed to gross 90 million dollars this weekend.
