It's just a documentary

The shooting techniques and scene scheduling of the nightly beheading operation at the climax of the film are quite powerful, and can be enjoyed as a battlefield documentary segment. But considering the multiple nominations, I was really looking forward to a lot, but overall I'm disappointed, film is an art form, and for such a powerful film based on a true story, I wish there were more There are many dramatic conflicts in it, rather than purely bystander records. The calm shots lack a sense of substitution, which makes most of the film appear dull. The film's conception also deliberately avoids many key issues. If you don't analyze it in depth, then this The 10-year hunt is meaningless, so the film's purely record-keeping stance makes the film look hollow and lacking in depth, as if it only shows the glory of "we hunted bin Laden" in the end. ★★★

I just think that if a female agent of this kind was sent to Pakistan to sit in an office, or to raid soldiers or prisoners, she would have put her 72-style in his head thousands of times, right?

There were hardly any extra shots for three hours. The most impressive thing about this film is that it allows the audience to participate in this decade of action completely immersively. They will not be led by the already known ending, but will have new perceptions. The record of the last hour of the hunt was great, and the ending was neat. Chastain’s performance was calm and majestic, Bigelow delayed the filming schedule in order to wait for her to vacate her schedule. Of course, it turned out that "she is worth the wait."
