Film was completely boring. Bad acting supported by more bad acting. I am not sure how such a daring real life event could have been played down so much but they did. I found myself yawning throughout. This film should have kept me on the edge of my love seat, not the toilet seat where I found myself 3 times trying to watch this film, and ironically where this film belongs. There isn't one good thing I can say for this film nothing.

If you are interested in the subject, for a TV movie this isn't bad at all. It is quite a comprehensive look at the hunt and capture of Osama.Compared to Zero Dark Thirty, it shows things from more points of view, namely from the seals training and the ground work of the agents on the ground in Abbottobad. Also the picture of the gun confirming identity is interesting. The post scripts at the end are interesting too.There are a couple of faults: some of the diversions about the seal's personal lives seem unnecessary. Also the blurry cam view of the attack on the compound are irritatingly unclear.Don't understand the very negative reviews of this movie. It can't fail to be interesting given the subject matter and good production values. Even in Zero Dark Thirty things were a bit slow till the raid started so it's not fair to fault this one for being boring.Overall well done.

the biggest mistake of this movie is that it shot in a city near pune India which any one can clearly tell by the number plates on the cars MH 06 and everything is written in Hindi and marathi the local languages!! and two actors who are playing pakistani spies are actor who work in the local film industry and are quite famous in the marathi speaking state of maharashtra.i dunno what was the film crew thinking there how can they make a Indian city look like peshawar its so different!!Its clearly a low budget movie which went horribly wrong and the some of the Indian actors are not even mention in the credits.I don't understand why so many people could not observe this mistake.Zero dark thirty is a much much better movie which is shot in Pakistan.

After seeing both films back to back, I loved Seal Team Six: The Raid on Osama Bin Laden, much better. This film was a more factual account of what really happened over there. Zero Dark Thirty, left many facts out of it's film and I'm not sure if the director purposely left them out to try to create more drama and suspense or that during filming maybe those facts weren't available? Don't know, don't care. Anson, is great in this, so are the other characters. The writing and data gathering on this one are priceless. Hats off to the folks at National Geographic, you guys made a superb film! Most of the people I know that watched this film and Zero Dark Thirty back to back all agree that this one is better. Thank you for this film. A film created for the person that wants the real truth about what happened, not some b.s. political movie by a self-absorbed, hype-driven director.
