Solid. Exactly what you'd think it would be.

Rating: 8/10 (2 March 2013)

This movie is good. I wanted to hate this film. I don't like buying into hype.
Leaving personal politics aside, this film attempts to chronicle the events leading up to the assassination of Osama Bin Laden.
Jessica Chastain is good as the protagonist Maya. IMO not best actress worthy, but a solid performance.
This film was well executed.
It attempts to simply tell things 'as is' rather than taking a political stance. Its comparable to United 93 in this way.
As such the characters are not really developed at all. Which actually makes more sense for this type of film.
Its not about the Seal Team. Its not really about Maya. Its not about the suits in Washington.
Its about the process. The film is about the manhunt for Osama Bin Laden, and the events that lead up to his assassination. Pretty straightforward.
This film does a good job of not overdramatizing everything (at least, not TOO MUCH) Understandably, some people will be bored.
It has flaws, for sure. But those are really just nitpicky details.
Can't understand the hate for this film. Some people just can't be objective.
