The story centres on Maya, a CIA officer who has spent her entire career in pursuit of Osama Bin Laden. Like Hurt Locker I think this film is character study of people who are in an all consuming role. unfortunately you never really now much about Mayas character outside of her obsession with Bin laden and I feel it makes the film a bit of a bore and over long. However it is interesting how they found him and the subsequent raid is a fascinating insight.
It is an extremely well made film. Very well acted, particularly Jessica Chastain.Well worth a watch but it does drag on a bit.
7/10
