Wife and I saw this one today. Will leave to others to debate the "torture/enhanced interogation" scenes, and political implications. We both liked the movie. Depicts the long process to find Bin Laden very well. Action scenes are well done. Wife says it portrays alot of the book "No Easy Day," which she read, I'm only on page 50. :redface2: Recommend seeing this one. Chris

Saw this today.

Bit like Argo in that you know the ending but still good to watch.

To take up the Ohio River drinking reference mentioned by Shane elsewhere the drinking in the Hollywood river by Australian actors continues{sm4}. The main interrogator and male lead is an Aussie actor called Jason Clarke who I had never heard of before. The leader of Seal Team 6 was an Aussie (Joel Edgerton) as was the guy who killed Bin Ladin (Callum Mulvey - Aussies will recognise him from Rush and Underbelly).

Gives a good appreciation of what type of thing went on behind the scenes and shows the actual raid well.
