    I still think Near Dark is her best film. But I liked the Hurt Locker over Avatar.

    Looks like the Bourne series. I hope it's another character study like Hurt Locker.

    Looks interesting, but The Hurt Locker was an extremely average movie

    Final Trailer. BTW it's already won multiple critics prizes for best pic, director and actress as well as a four Golden Globes nominations. There's been some noise about its pro "enhanced interogation" stance or lack of criticism.

    Nice rendition of nothing else matters there at the end.

    7.5/10. Decent movie and the problem was that you knew exactly how it would all play out so there was hardly any tension so you're just waiting for it to happen.

    This is a damn fine film. More of a procedural than a spy film. Very much like Fincher's Zodiac in this sense.

    Excellent performances from top to bottom. Jessica Chastain would be a worthy best actress winner. It's a shame Jason Clarke was over looked in the supporting actor category. But Kathryn Bigelow's omission will go down as one of the biggest oversights in Academy history. What she did, on the budget (20 mil) that she had is grade a film directing.

    One of the best adult films of 2012.

    Very interesting you say that because I don't believe anyone under the age of 25 would enjoy it as much as someone that's 30+.

    I personally thought it was going to be more of an action-thriller going in and was very disappointed on the outcome. The trailer was deceiving! :eek:

    It was a little worse than I expected. I thought there would be a little more action, but overall it was a solid film. I think the length of the movie could have been a little shorter.
