What were your impressions on [i]Zero Dark Thirty[/i].
From a narrative standpoint, I thought the film did a reasonable job in depicting the manhunt for OBL without completely boring me to sleep. Unfortunately, the main character Maya, played by Jessica Chastain, was an incredibly uninteresting character, largely due to her lack of development. The star of the film was the narrative rather than the actors in it.
Also, the raid on the compound in the end of the film was done exceptionally well. Excellent cinematography and use of selective sound.
Of course, these are my opinions. Please share your own. Feel free to discuss the political implications brought up by the film (e.g., effectiveness/ethics of torture etc.)

Unrealistic, boring, and seemed more like something that should've been a documentary than a feature length film. I gave it a 2/5.

Zero dark thirty sounds like a porno - an orgy of black men to be precise
