"In the past eight years, I have done nothing except to capture bin Laden." Either 2 stars or 4 stars. I don’t catch a cold political theme + lengthy and boring, but the shocking real background and the half-hour silence is better than the sound. The movie made by this goddamn woman is more manly than a man, and deserves the Oscar to abandon you, because nominating you is equivalent to All other male directors have to die.
