Truffaut said, you can't make an anti-war movie, because any war movie has a sense of energy and adventure that ultimately just makes combat seem fun. But Catherine Bigelow's Academy Award work "The Hurt Locker" did it, with semi-documentary-style photography, seemingly bland but conflicted plots, and relaxed editing. As a female director, Bigelow used enough restraint The camera to spy on the war, won her six golden statues and a victory over ex-husband Cameron. Four years later, Bigelow's "Hunting Bin Laden" looks at the war on terror in the United States from the perspective of a CIA agent. Unlike Iraq, which is full of unknown dangers and smoke, the "battlefield" of this film seems to be more hidden and hidden. Silence, and even the last raid on bin Laden was done in the dark with a rifle with a muffler. Everything seemed peaceful, but what still showed was the erosion of humanity by war. In the first half of the film, we see a group of helpless people who are still unable to obtain credible information in the face of inhuman tortures against their opponents. They are completely helpless in the face of enemies hiding in the mountains. Be careful to fall into the trap, this front is not much smoke but full of all kinds of guns and arrows. The emotional rendering is appropriately released in the last paragraph: the CIA director walks up to Maya in the dining room to chat with her, and she says that she is in charge of finding bin Laden as soon as she enters the bureau and has never received another mission; in the last scene, Maya is alone. In the empty cabin, the pilot said she could go anywhere she wanted but Maya just put on her seat belt and tears welled up. Where can she go? In these long years, the task of chasing bin Laden has become more than her task, and has become a large part of her life. No matter how you evaluate the justice of this war on terror, no one can deny that no one is the real victor of the war. From the beginning of 911 with no picture and only sound to the last shot of Maya's tears, it is endless. consequences of war.
The English name of the film, Zero Dark Thirty, is a military term, which refers to the time at 12:30 in the morning, and the film began to enter the pre-production preparation before bin Laden was killed. The action of hunting bin Laden in the early morning is not as good as saying that this moment is alluding to the endless darkness in it. War, no matter what it is nominally justified, is a dark moment for human civilization.
