Synopsis: Kathryn Bigelow (THE HURT LOCKER) directs this formidable thriller based on the CIA's decade-long manhunt for Osama bin Laden.
“A powerful, morally complicated work on an urgent subject. It is a film that deserves - that almost demands - to be seen and argued over.”~The Atlantic

4 stars (Very Good) An incredibly intense film - not just because it is wonderfully realistic and gritty picture, but because it represents a sharp snapshot of a particular zeitgeist in our recent past. Highly recommended. ~Tom H
2 stars (Good Try) Just as boring as "Hurt Locker". A lot of yelling and screaming and this from those not being tortured. A documentary would have knocked this story off in half an hour. ~Tubbs
2 stars (Good Try) Its understandable that this story may need be emotionally cold - but dramatically flat, too? The unblinking espousal of CIA-approved Gospel also nags. For all the talent involved (props to Chastain and DP Greig Fraser esp), a letdown. ~fairbrother
