Default Anyone already saw "Zero Dark Thirty" ?

Should one see it ?

I did not yet but planned to, some people tell me it's the most atrocious film they ever saw, others find it a great action movie, others say hey it's well know there is torture and of course only the guilty are at the receiving end.
I still wonder if Mr. Laden and his attempts have not been hidden in smoke and mirrors, with this film just adding to the legend ?

Isn't that the film thats supposed to be about OBL's take down? Offhand, I don't think ill rush out to see it. Any move made about that, this early after the fact, will most assuredly be a big heaping pile of Hollywood manure.

Download the vids from in theater recordings.
It's like watching a recreation of other real life stuff that Hollywood gambles on making bucks off of.
A load of crap mostly.
Take the money you'd spend going to the Movie place,
get drunk and you'll have a better time.

I had to leave after I saw a guy in the back wearing sunglasses ...

nothing too strange about that, except it was a drive-in theater

I thought the directors were out to make this film as anti american as possibe after seeing the water torture then putting a dog collar round the neck of the prisoner and making him sit in a kennel or box. A bit over done and why did they film that. The last half hour was probably the best part.

From what I understand those things happened during the hunt for Bin Laden. It's not anti-American to show them.

I've yet to see it as it's not out over here yet.

This film is not worth watching for free.
It is about nothing and second rate at this.
