[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There seem to be two camps from reading internet reviews.  I fall in the camp that found it extremely powerful and restrained in many ways.  I recommend it; it's hard  to not think it's an important movie given the events of the past decade and I left reflective.   I thought the beauty if the film was it gave this chance to reflect, though we each will do so in our own way of course based on both individual and collective experience.  Thoughts?[/quote]

I went because I wanted to see how they found OBL, and get some idea of what the special ops saw inside that house, and how they did it.

I was impressed with both female CIA agents who were largely responsible with keeping the trail alive ( the main one and teh young OP who helped as the case was getting cold)

I was sorry to hear that the main CIA OP has seen here career get side railed. Perhaps the problem is the culture at Langley? After all, if the CIA " worked as a team" , 911 probably would never have happened, so why not promote someone who cuts through the bullshit, even if she doesn't give a wit about the ego's of men who did not believe in and blocked her work because they lacked her analytic skill.

That is worrisome for  future intell gathering, esp since Aldrich Ames should have taught everyone that people can be blinded by their loyalty to co-workers. " loyalty to the team" is a BIG place to hide if you are NOt a risk taker, or a chronic under performer.

Also, CIA recruits kids in HS ? Really? What are our kids SAT scores and IQ test results being revealed to people at Langley?

THAT freaks me out ![/quote]
