This might be my favorite Jessica Chastain movie. She does a fantastic job embodying intelligence analyst that I know and have worked with. Absolute dedication, focus, and mostly obsessive tendencies to see it to the end.

Review
This might be my favorite Jessica Chastain movie. She does a fantastic job embodying intelligence analyst that I know and have worked with. Absolute dedication, focus, and mostly obsessive tendencies to see it to the end.
The story provided is a real story with some heavy drama, but the primary items are there. The CIA base being attacked, Pakistan's ISI screwing the American Embassy individuals and putting their lives in danger. As an Afghan vet myself, this hunt is so important to protection of the United States, and it's Western allies.
The way this story is told is great. It is a bit long at times, but you need to finish it through. When this first came out, I remember thinking it was super dark at the end. Now that I have a nicer TV, I don't think that. It's great.
As a side note, there are a lot of Star Wars and Marvel actors in this movie. Star Lord, Bonesaw or whatever his name is and his friend, and then Uncle Owen from Obi-Wan Kenobi.
My Rating
Super good movie. Its pacing is a bit slow, but it has to be as this covers a decade and there are some important events that take place. I have no issues with the acting or the story presentation, or sets (Practical Sets are always good). 9.
Parental Rating
There is some language and torture, but it isn't explicit, which is a weird sentence to write. There is obviously violence. While it might be on the end of the tier of acceptable, I believe both parents would watch this because of what it represents. It isn't my mom's movie so she wouldn't watch it on her own.
