Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Excellent but underrated film
The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
I love this film, I can't remember how many times I've already seen it. I love Maya, the lead character of this film, based on a true CIA operative whose job is to locate UBL ( Usama Bin Laden).It took years and years of looking for the "proverbial needle in the haystack", and yet her conviction and determination, along with her colleagues, never waned on finding the the most wanted man on earth.Until she finally found the man and nobody believed her.
Maybe the events are close to real, but most of the locals are not real, and probably it's filmed in other countries similar to Pakistan even the actors are from other country such as india, the filmmakers have zero knowledge of Pakistan. It's really sad.
Movie Review: "Zero Dark Thirty" (2012)When on May 2nd 2011 the assassination of Osama Bin Laden (1957-2011) had been announced through the administration of the 44th President of the United States Barack Obama, Academy-Award winning journalist-turning-screenwriter Mark Boal takes on an event-horizon occasion to present a screenplay toward a second time collaboration with Director Kathryn Bigelow, who had been searching further cinema-worthy content despite directing a TV-drama for HBO (Home Box Office) in season 2010/2011 after her surprisingly-received Best Director Academy-Award for the 2008-shot "The Hurt Locker" on an Iraq-invaded operations of U.S. army military elite bomb squad. Columbia Pictures presents this CIA-operative thriller also-produced by Megan Ellison for production company Annapurna Pictures, where Director Kathryn Bigelow relies completely on her leading actress Jessica Chastain, playing the character of Maya as task-forcing CIA-undercover agent on the constant as determined run to fight and convince Washington DC-representing officials in sparely decorated rooms of quickly-engaged conference meetings, when further supporting roles, including Mark Strong as range-playing hands-on-table crushing CIA-research team leader George, Jason Clarke as interrogation technique of water-boarding performing character of Dan in opening scenes of controversy, when a highlighted accurately-represented sequence of title-justifying raids-before-dawn in heavy state-of-the-art U.S. military gear portrayals by actors Joel Edgerton and Chris Pratt performing as members of a Navy Seals squad team engaging onto a secret family-living of the notorious terrorist's hide-out; a fortress-like compound out of plain concretes with no paint somewhere in rural-Pakistan-mimicking desert exterior set, when cinematographer Greig Fraser delivers digitally-received visuals in high-sensoring contrasts of striking light sources in the dark, fading shadows of emotionally-prepared cameos of Middle Eastern children of innocence after blown-off metal doors under night-visioned sparks of fire.The 150-Minute-Editorial by William Goldenberg keeps its pace, when Academy-Award-nominated Jessica Chastain's interpretation of Maya carries the majority of scenes toward a fulminate mesmerizing premise close-up shot by the end of beat-twisting "Zero Dark Thirty" to such an extent of staying gripped in the spectator's mind as realistic central intelligence thriller with the previously-mentioned military action highlighted scene that prevails truth to the core of an news-spreading event of historic event striking victory by the U.S. government.© 2018 Felix Alexander Dausend (Cinemajesty Entertainments LLC)
A hagiographic fictionalisation of the hunt for Bin Laden and raid on his compound. A compound that this film neglects to point out was harboured, within a country that was supposed to be a close ally of the US in the war against terror. A country that received billions in military and fiscal assistance from the US while, pretty much openly, providing assistance, training and quarter to the very 'Agents of terror' it was supposed to be persecuting.Any journalist, political pundit, barber, taxi driver and ... guy in the pub could've told you that Bin Laden was hiding in Pakistan but it took a whole decade for the US to start looking there for him and this after invading the wrong country twice. Seriously, to think, the US film industry chose to make this film, after all the incompetence, misery and bloody murder that has followed in wake of 9:11, is just astonishing.
