I like the movie for entertainment value, thought it was very well put together.

However, I believe this film will be proven in the long run to be nothing more than Hollywood fluffery for the Obama administration.

Any opinions on this?

*I thought the movie was perfectly cast as well. Jessica Chastain is

And all that was added later. The film original wrapped before Bin Laden was killed.

I actually thought about this movie today.

And usually, when I think about a movie, then see it mentioned on here, I have to watch it that night.

Correct, but it's widely known that he allowed Bigelow to pick the necessary brains when making the flick.

I also agree with the OP about the casting. Everyone in this film seemed to fit perfectly.


Jason Clarke was legit.

I wasn't baked and after 100 times trying to figure out WTF you were talking about, i'm still confused by your analysis of Anthony davis and the pelicans

Ya dude, I have already said 100 times it looks like I was way wrong on that.

ETA: About Davis, not the Pelicans as a team. They still suck and will miss the playoffs. Put them in the East and they are top 3-4 but they are 9-10 in the West IMO.
