For a decade, an elite team of intelligence and military operatives, working in secret across the globe, devoted themselves to a single goal: to find and eliminate Osama bin Laden. Zero Dark Thirty reunites the Oscar winning team of director-producer Kathryn Bigelow and writer-producer Mark Boal (The Hurt Locker) for the story of history's greatest manhunt for the world's most dangerous man. -- (C) Official Site

I'll say it.. The table looks like a dick.

The filmmakers have no obligation to comment on the use of torture. They merely presented it. It is not immoral to give the audience the benefit if the don't and let them come to their own conclusions. Films are meant to ask questions, not to state the answers.

Torture works, end of story.

Jennifer Ehle's character was far more believable, and interesting.

As far as the politics, or lack of politics, of the film...I of course found the torture scenes revolting and hated Jason Clarke's character with a passion, but I honestly didn't feel the film was making any value judgments.

It was simply portraying the events dispassionately as they occurred.

[keefriff99]

The movie was quite good, but I don't understand the accolades for Chastain AT ALL.

She exuded absolutely no gravitas or authority, and she sounds like she's 16 years old when delivers her lines.

Jennifer Ehle's character

[JaggiJohn]

She had nothing to do in life. She spent her whole life looking for Bin Ladin and when he died she had no where to go.
