Larushka Ivan-Zadeh metro.co.uk It wants to be Bourne meets 24, but falls way short of its mark. Rated: 2/5 Sep 1, 2017 Full Review Paul Fairclough Little White Lies Code Name: Geronimo is a film whose defects are entirely balanced by its positive aspects. Rated: 3/5 Dec 13, 2012 Full Review Peter Bradshaw Guardian As a thriller, it is cack-handed and boring, and as a drama it is badly acted and utterly incurious about what it was really like to be one of the soldiers who took part - relying abjectly on cliches. Rated: 1/5 Dec 13, 2012 Full Review Daniel Green CineVue Attempts to capture the nail-biting tension of those fateful events last May, but with precious little style or panache. Rated: 2/5 Feb 6, 2019 Full Review Philip French Observer (UK) Triumphalism is avoided, but the Seals' macho talk and a brutal fight between the two competitors for leadership of the assault team strike a false note. Dec 16, 2012 Full Review Henry Fitzherbert Daily Express (UK) A serviceable action thriller elevated by the presence of William Fichtner as a CIA agent leading the manhunt. Rated: 3/5 Dec 13, 2012 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Come è possibile presentare un film su uno degli eventi della storia recente più noto al grande pubblico, e farlo con degli evidenti errori nella trama? Oltre a questo ci si mette un paio di relazioni e rapporti abbozzati che non fanno altro che sminuire la trama. Peccato perchè i ritmi sono abilmente gestiti sia nelle parti più rapide ed intense che nelle parti più lente. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member What a let-down, has the looks and feel of low production values, the same carries forward to the script and casting. It is not a thriller, nor exciting, only saving grace is it is comparatively a short movie. The movie covers the operation which took down Osama bin Laden, just save your time and watch Zero Dark Thirty instead which is a great take covering the same events. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member very bad job by makers, not enough research done and poor editing job as well. Most of the scenes of pakistan were shot in India, that is ok as nobody wants to go to that place, its ok. But Indian flags seen in market, shops with Indian gods and names, not sure what the team was doing when shooting and making a film. Even the cars have a right hand drive, whereas in Pakistan its on left. half hearted effort and poorly executed. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member Very poor film as per Hollywood standards. Poorly directed. The film is shot in Mumbai, India as said to be in Peshawar and Abottabad, Pakistan. The people speak Hindi instead of Urdu or Pashto. There are shots of Indian flag as well. The license plates of cars are of Maharashtra, India. The depiction Bin Laden is extremely poor too. Rubbish film. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member It is movies like these that spread wrong info around. At least put a disclaimer in the beginning saying due to lower production costs or safety concerns the film could not be shot in Pakistan. Right at the beginning, since when did Mumbai become Peshawar and since when did Hindi become Pashto. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Un film fatto quasi esclusivamente per sfruttare l'onda di entusiasmo dovuta alla uccisione di Osama Bin Laden. La pellicola ci racconta in modo abbastanza piatto come è avvenuta la preparazione pre-blitz e ovviamente anche il blitz. Il tutto condito da storie personali abbastanza inutili così come gli attori che sono di livello abbastanza scadente. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Read all reviews
