ZERO DARK 30

Zero Dark 30 - Wow.  They got Bin Laden, and here is the movie that tells the story of how it really happened, and why it took 10 years to do so.  I think part of the critical excitement is that most of the critics are men, and they just can't believe that a woman directs good war movies.  This is difficult to review without giving away so much of the story, so go see it (it's worth seeing), and then let me know what you thought.  My emotions were more about Maya's role, and what she had to do in order to see out her mission.  She was painstakingly thorough and she never gave up.  She believed completely in what she was doing and she worked without distraction until she reached her goal.  For me, that's where the power is in this story.
