Much Better Then Hurt Locker

Rating: 10/10 (13 June 2013)

So some criticize the pacing and the lack of character in the film. Well, it did take ten years to find the target and the characters of the main protagonists is not important. What the characters did is most important.
A fascinating film, well made and constructed. I am not going to discuss the scenes of torture - each individual that watches this film needs to make their minds up on this aspect.
Whether it is accurate or not is a mute point. Of course it will not be completely accurate as it was an operation carried out by the CIA not that long ago. In time when (if) the details become unclassified then maybe somebody can make a more documentary style film on the events leading up to the killing of the target. Saying that Zero Dark Thirty is respectful to the subject matter and is a worthy film - much better than The Hurt Locker.
