Good movie, NOT worthy of movie of the year praise

Rating: 5/10 (6 January 2013)

The hype that has followed the release of this movie had me believing that this was going to be the one, this was going to simply blow me away with action, intensity, and marvelous film making. Unfortunately it didn't deliver any of that for me, I found it to be too detailed and hard to follow in their quest to find and kill Bin Laden. In actuality, this was more a documentary than an action thriller, so if you're looking for something other than historical facts leading up to the finding and killing of Bin Laden, this one is not for you.
Acting wise Jessica Chastain is exceptional in her role, Jason Clarke was also excellent, as was the entire cast of this movie. For me overall I was disappointed with this one, and while I'd say the first part of the movie is tiring and slow, the second part did have some drama and intensity, but it was too little to late for what has been hyped as a strong candidate for movie of the year.....sorry this one will not get my vote.
