Okay but not great.

Rating: 5/10 (2 March 2013)

Given the amount of hype surrounding this movie you would have expected something akin to Lawrence of Arabia but in reality we have something like an episode from CSI or something like that (don't watch much TV, sorry). Most of the critics seem to want to pan the film because of the torture scenes but I actually think this is a strong point in the movie. There is no bleeding hearted Liberal stepping up to say its wrong as there were none doing it at the time then and there. There is no concession to the moral outrage and nor should there be. This is a "warts and all" film about how they killed Bin Laden and in that it is better then most Hollywood movie about war. We see enough condemnation about what is supposedly right and wrong when a nation is fighting a war but in reality war is cruel. So all those bleeding hearted Liberals who condemn the film for its portrayal of torture without the moral outrage I say its about time we got more movies like it... and I am one of those bleeding hearted Liberals. The problem is that the movie is too long, to short on story, overbalanced with an extended battle sequence at the end and overbalanced also with torture scenes. Having watched the movie I left the theatre with no moral outrage, a so-so attitude and wondering whats on next week.
