The Good: They show you what you want to see, which is how they caught Bin Laden. It's pretty interesting how they were able to track him down and find his location. There are also some torture scenes that are pretty degrading and may not be for sensitive audiences...but nevertheless they are intriguing to watch.
The Bad: Only real interesting parts were the beginning interrogations and the last 30mins where they catch Bin Laden. Other than that Jessica Chastain's acting kinda came off as unrealistic and a little forced. Whether it's true or not that the real person she was portraying was as "aggressive" doesn't matter. You'll notice what i'm talking about when you see how she speaks to her superiors. You may also get lost in all of the political and CIA jargon going on. It gets kind of difficult to keep up with all of the Muslim names that are tossed around ever so casually. (please forgive my American ignorance)
The Reason: Well there was a lot of hype around this movie. Who wouldn't be though. This was the movie about how they caught Osama Bin Laden!Just rent it if you want to. Like I said the beginning and the end are all that's really worth watching.
The Rating: 6.5/10
