Review of Zero Dark Thirty (2012) by Korbyn D — 26 Feb 2014
"Zero Dark Thirty" is directed by Kathryn Bigelow and written by Mark Boal, explaining a tale of history's past. The story gives the audience a police-action narrative of an individuals perspective of Maya (Jessica Chastain), a CIA agent who is on "the greatest manhunt-in history"... Her search for Osama bin Laden. During the entire film, my heart was simply racing for more minuet information. Your palms will sweat and fingers will grasping the cup-holders enthralling for more details.
Listen for Mark Boal's brilliant dialect. Quotes that specifically caught my ear are:
Jack: In the end, bro, everybody breaks. It's biology.
Maya: I'm the motherfucker that found this place, sir.
Patrick - Squadron Team Leader: Dude... Do you realize what you just did?
By the end of the film you will be asking what is fact from fiction and how much is truly a conspiracy. I now question, was Osama bin Laden personally responsible for the attacks on September 11, 2001, killing nearly 3,000 innocent American people. After doing a little bit of research I learned that on September 14, 2001, the government-released tapes allegedly of bin Laden confessing to the attacks on 9/11.
I highly recommend watching this 2 hour and 37 minute - Rated R - suspenseful film.
