After watching, I was thinking about the feelings of those Muslim actors when they were acting in this kind of movies.
Muslims and terrorist organizations are easily connected nowadays. The

The plot in the second half of the film is too blunt.

Changez: [having learned Bobby is working with the CIA] Did you go to them or did they come to you?
Bobby Lincoln: Look, Changez...
Changez: Don't insult me. You wanna have a dialogue, let's have a dialogue. Did you go to them or did they come to you?
Bobby Lincoln: They came to me.
Changez: How does that happen? How do you go from writing so passionately against intervention in this region to this?
Bobby Lincoln: You wanna know how it happened? I'll tell you. In 2001, while you were busy getting rich in New York City, I was in Takhar Province, Afghanistan. A friend introduced me to Ahmad Shah Massoud. I spent a week interviewing him. He was opening schools for girls, talking about democracy, resisting the Taliban. I know he had blood on his hands, but he stood for something, meant something to people, and that's why I thought we didn't need to be there. Massoud never got the chance to read my book. Six months after it came out, he was killed by a bomb hidden in a video camera. Two days after that, the same guys that killed him took down the towers. And that's when I realized I'd been wrong. We did need to be here. So I picked a side.
