How bad can bad be?

Rating: 1/10 (28 March 2015)

I had to give one star to this movie mainly because of the sound track. There is way to much torture for my taste. The depiction of the events were certainly approved by the white house and I suppose a large part of the budget for this lame movie surely comes from the same place. Kathryn Bigelow's scheme to aim at getting an Oscar by courting the establishment fails lamentably. The half documentary and half thriller formula leaves the audience bored to death. Casting Jessica Chastain as a trump card to avoid making a strictly guy flick is not very convincing either. After reading ten pages of comments, I could not help noticing that the word propaganda appears so many times that I cannot understand why the producers were not able to make it less obvious. Anyway at least the sound track was well composed and richly orchestrated. How bad is bad? Very Bad.
