Review For Zero Dark Thirty |
Even more than The Hurt Locker, which sometimes relied on traditional film techniques to build suspense, Zero Dark Thirty resists manipulating the viewer or building movie-movie excitement. Rene Rodriguez-Miami Herald
One of the most innovative and best made films of the past year. Every now and then, even Dick Cheney gets to like a great movie. Mick LaSalle-San Francisco Chronicle
Its stance is extremely tricky. It's not a documentary. It's not a load of revenge nonsense. It's not "24." I'm still arguing with myself over parts of it. Michael Phillips-Chicago Tribune
"Zero Dark Thirty" is a great movie, an astonishing achievement on nearly every level. Bill Goodykoontz-Arizona Republic
Swift, smart, relentless, Zero Dark Thirty compresses a decade of high-stakes procedural into 157 minutes of pure momentum. Chris Vognar-Dallas Morning News
As a hugely compressed account of the Osama bin Laden manhunt, as a compelling but troubling look at "black ops" tradecraft, and as a riveting portrait of a fiercely determined woman working in a male-dominated sphere, the film is a resounding success. Steven Rea-Philadelphia Inquirer
...even if this is a completely fictional account, it seems true and our need to fill in the gaps will cause what I think will be a massive audience to see this much anticipated film. Danny Minton-Fort Bend Sun
Bigelow and screenwriter Mark Boal have made an amazing film. It's a mystery, a thriller and finally a stunningly photographed military raid. We know how this movie ends yet we hang on to the edge of our seats. Paul Chambers-Movie Chambers
Agent Strangelove, or how I learned to stop worrying and love waterboarding! Kam Williams-AALBC.com
The underlying theme, and the one most troubling, is that of people on both sides who are neither sadists nor psychopaths finding themselves doing things that smack of both, and convinced that there is no other option. Andrea Chase-Killer Movie Reviews
A grade-A, needle-meet-haystack manhunt-thriller James Verniere-Boston Herald
Reminds us of a cop show, only without the Miranda rights. Kelly Vance-East Bay Express
A fictional account that honors the essence of the lengthy, painstaking, fitful, deadly process to find and to kill the terrorist leader. Gary Thompson-Philadelphia Daily News
The suspense comes not from how we ultimately bring down bin Laden, but how Maya - and what remains of America's fraying do-gooder conscience - fares in the process. Alison Gang-San Diego Union-Tribune
[It] isn't easy viewing - but just try to look away. Moira MacDonald-Seattle Times
It's first-rate work from Bigelow and Boal, who treat the tale with conviction and knowledge, yet never lose sight of its inherent alarm, packaging a combustible narrative into one of the best pictures of 2012. Brian Orndorf-BrianOrndorf.com
[It's]a harrowing adventure behind the headlines that is at once a riveting procedural and, at the same time, a bracing political statement on the moral ambiguities of our war on terror. Cary Darling-Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com
It's cinema as an extension of long-form journalism, an intriguing and exciting story even though we know exactly how it's going to end. Stephen Silver-EntertainmentTell
That kind of ambition should be applauded, even if the movie as a whole never quite clears the very high bar it sets for itself. Perry Seibert-TV Guide's Movie Guide
