Watched this movie last night. While it's nominated for best picture, I don't think it will win. There are other movies in the category like Lincoln, which I think will clean house at the awards.

That said, I really enjoyed Zero Dark Thirty. The lead is very strong in her role and I couldn't help but like her throughout the film. I would rate it 8.5/10.

[jeedee]

trailer looks/reminds me a lot of homeland lol

ill stilk watch it tho

seriously amazing film

[MR_BIGGS]

For people who have watched it...better than Hurt Locker?

[nabs]

I didn't like it. didn't think it was as amazing as people said it was. I like the fact that it wasn't propaganda-ish. I don't think its the real story of what happened, because that is still classified information. The movie was okay.

Hurt locker is 10 times better.

Hurt Locker won multiple awards, something I don't think ZDT will. Hell, I liked Life of Pi more which is also nominated for best picture.

long ass movie...holy!

haven't seen hurt locker so i can't compare yet.

[jeedee]

[StylinRed]

this was a horrrrrible movie; i knew the praise was simply because of the subject matter but i still gave it a shot anyhow and wow :/

[KingDeeCee]

Lot of mixed reviews in this thread. I actually really enjoyed this movie. Top 5 movies of the year for me.

[Gh0stRider]

You should see it. Great movie. :thumbsup:

ive got it, just haven't had to chance to watch it.

[Hondaracer]

watched it tonight thought it was alright, 6.5/10

btw, pretty sure when they entered bin ladens place they probably just shot everyone lol

Agreed, I watched it last night and thought it was pretty bad.

It's been 10 days into the year.

[KingDeeCee]

It's been 10 days into the year.

It's considered a 2012 film, had 2012 viewings. Hense the oscar nominations.

[jeedee]

Man...DVDscr of this is taking 2+ days to torrent

Better be worth it lol

[G-spec]

Whole movie just felt like they tried to force feed us a Homeland movie, in their minds something better than Homeland, but not even close.... just felt like Claire Dames' character was ripped off played by a different shittier actress and made into a movie.
I off course know that Claire Dames' Homeland character has been said to been based off the real life Mya, so it's all kind of neat.

But pretty much throughout the whole movie I kept comparing it to Homeland because of all the close ties, so the movie never held up because Homeland is that friggin good, wherein the shittiest episode of Homeland is still better written and acted than this whole damn movie.

[jeedee]

2.3GB lol

Might be my shitty internet :fuckthatshit:

[theevilslave]

Don't think it deserves all the hype it's getting. It's a good movie, but that's it. 7/10

[krazynuck]

I thought it was just meh....saw it last night and I would give it a 6.5/10

[bbbj]

Movie was pretty boring tbh.

Back in November I watched another movie about this same bin laden operation and it was much better, especially the ending scene.. I can't remember whats its called though if anyone could help give the name

[falcon]

There are good SCR copies of this floating around. FYI

[MR_BIGGS]

Homeland picked up some awards at the Golden Globes and some people have been saying its better than Zero Dark Thirty. Time to watch Homeland.

[6793026]

seroiusly, i didn't think the movie is that good. really? nomination? for what? acting was close to none existent. Try acting in front of a freaking green screen imagining there was a tiger in Life of Pi.

this movie was done to death, how OBLindin got killed was like old new many years ago so it's like we know how the movie was going to turn out.

don'tget me wrong, it did a decent job to put this movie together, but it was not worthy of anything. it could have been zero dark twenty and not be bin lindin related.

[stuff99]

This movie was fantastic. I seriously question the intelligence of those on these forums that found Django and Zero Dark Thirty boring.

Comparing it to Homeland? Please. Homeland is ENTIRELY fiction and isn't even on the same level as Zero Dark Thirty.

Homeland has so many flawed unrealistic characters and romances that detracts from any 'realism' the show tries to portray.

I bet the people here that found Django and Zero Dark boring are the same ilk that continue to support movies like Death Race 3 and Fast Five movies in the theaters.

[El Bastardo]

I felt that this movie was trying to check off too many boxes as it was playing.

Post 9/11 paranoia? Check
Other terrorist attacks? Check
Bureaucratic red tape? Check
Human error? Check
Zealousy and obsession with catching Bin Laden? Check

In my opinion, the best one of these types of "Post 9/11 movies" is The Kingdom.

It explores the shock and brutality of a terrorist attack. The impact it has on those left alive. The importance of discovering the truth of the attack by those investigating. And the perspective of authority figures from an Islamic country just trying to keep the peace.

It was a solid movie in my opinion and I get that it got mediocre reviews but it was a far sight better than ZDT.

Traitor is another one I'd recommend above ZDT and while I enjoyed Hurt Locker, the film is a little cowboy for my liking.


If you want to commit this amount of time to watching a movie, watch Django Unchained. Otherwise expect your butt to go numb before they make reference to the Times Square SUV bombing attempt.

Also, don't get why people said its a rip off of Homeland. It's more of a rip off of reality.

Kingdom was a great film. Only problem I have with it was an FBI team investigating in the Middle East. Um, what??!? Other than that it was a great flick.

[knight604]

It was okay not bad.

(Don't worry folks, these aren't spoilers)

The FBI team was investigating an American community and had permission from a Saudi prince. In the film it made sense.

honest opinion

life of pi > djanjo > zero dark thirty.

i couldn't finish Lincoin so i can't put those in there.

[gilly]

Watching Homeland pisses me off... its like for people who doesn't understand diplomacy and foreign covert operations. The characters are often exaggerated and at times laughable.

and it seems these days all you have to do is make a movie about a war with the american looking like the good guys and you will get an oscar. oh yea, FUCK ARGO piece of shit movie

Whew, I wasn't the only one.
