Eh... I have mixed feelings about this.
Not really happy that it turned into a movie so fast. I'd be interested to hear what the DEVGRU operators think about their op being turned into some kind of propaganda flick....

Remember, Obama personally killed Osama bin Laden, not the st6 guys.

This. It irritates me that they opened up these files to this filmmaker.

I think it was all pretty simple.  Recon, Train and Destroy.  Not really much to learn at this point, especially since Matt Bissonnette already spilled all the beans in his book.

I hope we don't get further backlash from this film. It is like rubbing it in.

Didn't like around 25 members of SEAL Team 6 die aboard a helicopter?  It was the largest number of casualties in a single day in Afghanistan suffered by the US military.  Seems pretty suspicious that somehow a rag-tag group of Taliban were able to shoot down this helicopter?  Who gave the order to move this many SEALs in a single helicopter above hostile territory?  Where are the conspiracy stories on this?

Just imagine all the millions of dollars in training and equipment these guys had.

I think it turned out that they were not DEVGRU operators, or were not the operators involved in the raid..

this movie is pretty cool so far.  I won't give any spoilers.  Very high production, along the lines of an HBO show.

Well no shit, it was approved by the White House and produced by the same person that did The Hurt Locker.

I think that the fact that its going to be shown on Cable is a political stunt to get it to as wide an audience as possible. They want it to be as slick and dramatic as possible. Will be a nice propaganda flick for the upcoming election.

it's been nothing but flattering to obama so far.  They showed mccain mocking Obama for saying the #1 goal was to kill bin laden, pwning himself.  

TONS of war footage here.  mostly about the military side, only 1 minute of obama so far.  mostly military ops in the field.

I think it should be rubbed in.  The "backlash" as you call it are simply terrorists/terrorist sympathizers who are just looking for an excuse anyways.  May as well out them this way.  Sooner the better.

In military matters there is NEVER a set of circumstances where obama can even carry John McCain's jock strap.

I agree with Bench....whole fucking movie special thing is a farce.

since the opening scenes, 45 minutes in, it hasn't been political at all.   All military/spy side of it.  firefights, bin laden compound, with xhibit and some other b-list celebrities.

what next, making a movie out of a real life event one week after it happened? People, especially kids have a harder time to tell reality from fiction nowadays. It's about time a good real war teaches them the diff between SFX and seeing someone die in an atrocious suffering for real.
