So, after much effort, I finally convinced my mom to take me to see Zero Dark Thirty. The torture scenes weren't even that messed up. Anyway, the main character is a recently inducted CIA agent whose adroit operation of the mission, which she turns into a crusade, leads to the eventual elimination of Osama bin Laden and the militants accompanying him at his hideout.
Throughout the movie, she creates erudite plans to retrieve information from various sources. At first she is a pariah, but the others agents slowly but surely warm up to her. Her demeanor is very committed and focused throughout the duration of the movie. However, a lapse of rational thought by one of her friends results in the deaths of several soldiers. At the end, Seal Team 6 shows her the body of bin Laden, providing definitive proof of his death.

It was a great movie, and I recommend that anyone reading this should go see it (even though that is probably unrealistic for some of you... oh well).
