Chastain rocks, The Rest is Decent

Rating: 8/10 (13 January 2013)

Zero Dark Thirty is another addition to the historical movie genre. This time Bigelow has decided to glorify America by focusing on the hunt for the greatest manhunt of all time, the hunt for Osama Bin Laden. While the realism and constant evolution of the quest are impressive, this film still has some pace and balance issues to sort out to be almost three hours long. While some of the meeting scenes were interesting to me, there is only so much political bickering and repetitive complaints one can take. Despite this though, Bigelow and company did a nice job integrating the driving motives of the manhunt within the planning stages, bringing one into the CIA's world. Yet the biggest strength for this reviewer is Ms. Jessica Chastain, who once again graces the big screen with not only her charm and looks, but with her amazing talent. I felt this was her best role yet, but that's just me.
