Has Anyone Seen Zero Dark Thirty Movie?

Zero Dark Thirty, for those of you in the dark, is a movie reenacting the covert operations surrounding the hunt for, and eventual raid on, Osama bin Laden. After the documents detailing the efforts were released, a movie was quickly developed and has been recently released.

If any members of ATS have seen this movie: what did you think of it? Did anything strike you as odd or inconsistent with the information we've been given regarding the actual events?

Is the movie science fiction or fantasy?

It's a "realistic" representation of the hunt for Bin Laden. I use quotes because I don't know if any of what they show is actually what happened or just a cinematic portrayal of the official story.

OBL died years ago. The movie is pretend and a blatant propaganda piece.

Have you seen the movie?

I haven't seen it but it is just a movie not a documentary. It may be 'based on actual events' but that's very vague terminology.

You must have seen it, what's your take?

I just finished watching it and I thought it was pretty good. Near the end they show what they think the stealth helicopters look like that were used. Most of the movie was about how they tracked Bin laden to that compound.

It isn’t an action movie per say but still had its moments.

The whole damn thing (the death of Bin Laden) strikes me as odd and inconsistent....especially how we dump his body in the sea... Even all this time later, the whole damn thing just stinks to high heaven. No way I'd believe any of these claims.

I'll see the movie, but it likely should be in the fiction section.
