Wow! Such a good movie.

Good start, but then it gets ruined

a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

This film is about Maya (Jessica Chastain) a potty mouthed CIA operative and her one woman crusade to get Bin Laden. It starts off with 9-11. Maya is a composite character. The CIA is not as dumb as this film portrays. She visits CIA black sites around the world through their revolving door. It appears as if she got all the intelligence on her own. We know this was not the case.In comparison, I must say "Seal Team Six" was a far better film as far as plot. What this film offers is an obsessed Jessica Chastain who borders on insanity. Her character seemed unrealistic at times, but compelling at other times.Much has been made about the politics of this film which I found they took great lengths to be non-controversial. Sometimes facts have a bias to them. There is excessive torture at the beginning of the film. Information is gathered from people that have been tortured, but not necessarily because of it, as there is a disconnect between the two events. The audience is allowed to decide on its effectiveness. Seal Team Six appears late in the film, almost as an afterthought. The other film was superior in presenting the Navy Seals.Obama and Bush aren't mentioned per se. Obama appears speaking in the background on TV. There is a new policy concerning torture that is alluded to, but the details are not given. One remark was, "You don't want to be the one caught holding the dog collar."There is a reluctance on the part of some to invade the Bin Laden compound due to the WMD/Iraq disaster although no blame is specifically placed.Chastain does an excellent job and is the best aspect of this feature. In an idea world she would have played Maya in "Seal Team Six." I found the political criticisms unwarranted as was the praise given to this film when "Seal Team Six" was clearly the superior production in presenting the tale. If you haven't caught "Seal Team Six" check it out.Recap: Chastain great. Rest of movie so-so. "Seal Team Six" superior over-all.Parental guidance: F-bombs, no sex, some male prisoner rear nudity.

This is the racist movie ever. this movie shows how USA goverment deals with other people. It deals with them as slaves or childeren. Seeing the movie was so bad, it show the brutality of dealing with others!

A hagiographic fictionalisation of the hunt for Bin Laden and raid on his compound. A compound that this film neglects to point out was harboured, within a country that was supposed to be a close ally of the US in the war against terror. A country that received billions in military and fiscal assistance from the US while, pretty much openly, providing assistance, training and quarter to the very 'Agents of terror' it was supposed to be persecuting.Any journalist, political pundit, barber, taxi driver and ... guy in the pub could've told you that Bin Laden was hiding in Pakistan but it took a whole decade for the US to start looking there for him and this after invading the wrong country twice. Seriously, to think, the US film industry chose to make this film, after all the incompetence, misery and bloody murder that has followed in wake of 9:11, is just astonishing.

Facts 1993 to 2001 Democrat President Clinton Destroyed the U.S. Defense (U.S. Military, U.S. Intelligence Agencies, U.S. Department of State (U.S. Defense Related Programs, like the U.S. Department of State's very Profitable Foreign Military Sales Program), U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and many other U.S. Agencies U.S. Defense Related Programs). Democrat President Clinton "Lost Osama Bin Laden" after the Osama Bin Laden 1993 First World Trade Center Attack.Worldwide the U.S. no longer Funded U.S. Funded "Local" Intelligence Assets, that took Decades for the CIA to covertly Recruit (usually Citizens of the Target Nation), covertly Train, and covertly place into "Hostile" Nations, "Potentially Hostile" Nations, "Anti U.S." Nations, and some "Friendly Nations" (Allied Nations).To Further Destroy U.S. Intelligence (that had been built up by Director of the CIA H.W. Bush, and as U.S. President H.W. Bush) Democrat President Clinton signed into U.S. Law his, No Intelligence Sharing Law, in that U.S. Agencies cannot "Information Share" between U.S. Agencies nor with U.S. Allies Agencies. Translation the CIA could no longer "Information Share" with the FBI, nor could the FBI "Information Share" with the CIA. The CIA could no longer "Information Share" with the Mossad, British Ministry of Intelligence (M.I.). 1998 Democrat President Declared War Against U.S. Ally Iraq, by Demanding U.S. Congress Declare War in his 1998 State of the Union Address "Weapons of Mass Destruction", "Dictator Iraqis President Saddam Hussein" (A Lie, British Style Parliamentary Form of Government), "Murdering His Own People" (another Lie, the Millions of Shia of Iraq (Iranians, that fled Iran after the 1979 U.S.S.R. backed Overthrow of U.S. Ally Shah of Iran), and the Millions of Kurdistanis as Allied to the Muslim Nation of Iran are NOT Actual Iraqis (Arabs, Sunnis), and actually fought against the Actual Iraqis during the Iran Iraq Wars 1980 to 1989 as the Longest Conventional War of History). The Result was the U.S. House of Representatives Declaration of War Against U.S. Ally Iraq, "Iraq Liberation Act of 1998" as the Democrat's "Overthrow of Iraqis President Saddam Hussein, Liberate the Iraqis People, Install A Democracy". This was then followed by Democrat President Clinton's Ordered as Commander In Chief 1998 U.S. Military Operation Desert Fox, as more intensive U.S. Airstrikes and U.S. Cruise Missile Attacks against the Muslims at Baghdad U.S. Ally Iraq, Democrat President Clinton's mistaken ignorant belief that by attacking the Civilians at the Overcrowded Urban Poor Areas of Baghdad Iraq, they would Revolt against "Dictator" Iraqis President Saddam Hussein, Muslims do not play that kind of games and directly blamed those that attacked them, "U.S. The Great Satan", a hundreds of thousands of Innocent Muslim Men, Women, and Lots (too many) Children were Murdered. To Gain Support for Himself, his Al Quada,Osama Bin Laden Declared Revenge for the Murders of the Innocent Poor of Islam, the Muslim Nation of Iran then backed Osama Bin Laden and so did most of the over 1.5 Billion Muslims Worldwide, money from the Mandatory Islamic Tithes from the over 1.5 Billion Muslims Worldwide flowed into Osama Bin Laden's and his Al Quada's pockets.Translation, That's Correct Democrat President Clinton was the CAUSE of the 1993 Osama Bin Laden First World Trade Center Attack, and the Second Osama Bin Laden World Trade Center Attack as the 9/11 2001 Attacks. Just like Democrat President Clinton CAUSED the 2008 Great Recession, by Eliminating the U.S. Laws, Banking Acts of 1933 and 1935, and having Amended the Community Reinvestment Act to cause the Mortgage Crisis, Destruction of the U.S. Defense also caused the Recession of 1998.CIA Operation Neptune Spear After the Osama Bin Laden Second Attack of the World Trade Center, as the 9/11 2001 Attacks, Republican President G.W. Bush tasked the CIA to create a Plan to Locate and Capture Osama Bin Laden. U.S. Army Special Forces Lieutenant General McChrystal and U.S. Navy S.E.A.L. Admiral McRaven wrote CIA Operation Neptune Spear. Within weeks after the 9/11 2001 Attacks the CIA with attached U.S. Army Special Forces attempted CIA Operation Neptune Spear and Failed due to Democrat President Clinton's 1993 to 2001 Destruction of the U.S. Defense, the U.S. no longer Funded U.S. Local Afghan Intelligence Assets to assist the CIA Teams to get to "Safe Houses (Locations)", evade the Millions of Afghan Taliban, Locate Osama Bin Laden in a Nation the size of Texas with 2/3rds being Mountains.Democrat President Obama fearing a Failure that would destroy his Political Career (Re Election) "Politically Distanced" himself (again), so the Director of the CIA, Leon Panetta, using the Republican President G.W. Bush Presidential Executive Orders, CIA Operation Neptune Spear, G.W. Bush 2006 Amended U.S. No Assassination Policy, conducted CIA Operation Neptune Spear from a CIA SCIF, not the White House that was only full of spectators.This is NOT a matter of likes or dislikes this is Facts of Actual Written U.S. Laws, U.S. Government Documents, U.S. Congressional Records.
