The reality is a long run with perseverance

Zero Dark Thirty

After watching the assassination of bin Laden, the entire film is 2 and a half hours long, and only the last half hour is the real assassination. The remaining 2 hours are a monotonous tale of Maya's 12 years of perseverance in finding a needle in a haystack.

Statistics say that it takes ten years to master a skill. This is very realistic, but what is more realistic is that it may take another ten years to wait for an opportunity after mastering it, or it will take ten years to create an opportunity, and there may be no stage to shine in the whole life.

The last shot of the film is her silent tears on the plane leaving the Middle East. This is the only thing she has done all her life. Before she succeeded, she was nothing, and after she succeeded, she didn't know how to go forward. But she was lucky because she persevered and it finally came to fruition. Only a strong will and a thin hope supported her in the process. This is the most moving part of the film, and it is also the driving force for countless forbearance people to survive.

    A good movie, but I hate it. I can't bear the torturing parts.

    Personally feel that the rhythm is very good, not dull. It is more mature, meticulous, and calm than "The Hurt Locker", and more deeply explores the irrationality, cruelty, and distortion of warfare. This is not an advocacy of American victory, but a revelation and questioning of the world sleeping at midnight at midnight. At the same time, this is also the most female perspective and attitude in Bigelow's recent films!

Zero Dark Thirty quotes

  • Maya: Dan, Debbie found Abu Ahmed.

    Dan: Really?

    Maya: Yeah. He's been in the files this whole time. The family's named Sayeed.

    Dan: Okay, but he's, uh, he's dead, so doesn't that make him a little less interesting to you?

    Maya: He may not be. We now know Abu Ahmed is one of eight brothers. All the brothers in the family look alike. Three of them went to Afghanistan. Isn't it possible that when the three eldest brothers grew beards in Afghanistan, they started to look alike? I think the one calling himself Abu Ahmed is still alive. The picture we've been using is wrong. It's of his older brother, Habeeb. He's the one that's dead.

    Dan: Okay, and what are you basing this on?

    Maya: We have no intercepts about Abu Ahmed dying, we just have a detainee who said he buried a guy who looked like Abu Ahmed. But if someone as important as Abu Ahmed had died, they'd be talking about it online in chat rooms all over the place. Plus, the detainee said that Habeeb died in 2001. We know Abu Ahmed was alive then, trying to get into Tora Bora with Ammar. That means it's probably one of the other brothers that's dead.

    Dan: In other words, you want it to be true.

    Maya: Yes, I fucking want it to be true!

    Dan: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Calm down. Calm down.

    Maya: I am calm.

  • George: I want to make something absolutely clear. If you thought there was some secret cell somewhere, working al-Qaeda, then I want you to know that you're wrong. This is it. There's no working group coming to the rescue. There's nobody else hidden away on some other floor. There is just us. And we are failing. We're spending billions of dollars. People are dying! We are still no closer to defeating our enemy. They attacked us! On land, in '98. By sea, in 2000. And from the air, in 2001. They murdered 3,000 of our citizens in cold blood. And they have slaughtered our forward deployed! And what the fuck have we done about it, huh?

    [slamming his hand on the table]

    George: We have we done? We have 20 leadership names, we've only eliminated four of them!
