Seal Team 6 could only rate as propaganda in a toxic, Fox News-driven political environment such as obtains at this moment.

Rated: 3/5

Not great, not terrible -- just your standard-issue TV movie about a well-known historic event.

Rated: B-

The Hollywood Reporter

A movie that feels like a documentary at times, a cheesy docudrama at others and some kind of slapped-together film that wants to be taken seriously as well.

Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN)

Demonstrates with its narrative lassitude and overall dullness just how much Kathryn Bigelow and Mark Boal did right.

Rated: 1/4

In the end it's really just schlocky television fare like "Act of Valor"...

If you want a proficient, dramatized re-enactment of the May 1 - 2, 2011 mission to kill Osama bin Laden, Seal Team Six meets the bill

I don't know what all the bitching is about it not being shot in the right area, or that then President Obama was a being a part of this movie, well it happens. Fact is he was the leader of our country who in the end made the call for the raid and killing of Bin Laden. Plus it's a movie, not a single one that I've seen is 100% accurate, or even close, none zero! This one was more inline with our guys then Zero Dark Thirty which had K. Bigelow and her partner Mark Boal and maybe 10 minutes of our guys. Either way it gives us a inside of what somewhat happened, and it's not all flowers and roses, cause War isn't Flowers and Roses it's our men and women putting themself on the line for our "Freedom" It's watchable

This movie is ostensibly a reenactment of how Seal Team Six performed the assassination of Osama Bin Laden. Yet the movie begins by slamming Republican politicians, and then it shows American soldiers acting like Keystone Kops and getting themselves hurt and killed. Some unseen interviewer allegedly talks to people involved, but they give mumbling answers. The movie broke down in the middle of viewing, but I already gave up in disgust. The only person being honored is our great leader Barack Obama. Kim il-Sung would laugh at this travesty.

Shooting in the middle of Mumbai, with vehicle number plate displaying them being registered in Mumbai, national political party's flag fluttering in the background, extras used in the scenes were clearly appearing to be from Mumbai. And this set up is introduced as a city in Pakistan. Poor observations and low skilled editing. The starting 10 minutes were a tell-tell sign about the full movie.
