It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Straight forward film that went nowhere with no twists or turns and no clever plot twists, very predictable movie with a swift ending, I'm thinking it was probably written during the writers strike period of shooting movies in the US, and I really dontt Honk any of it was unthinkable, save millions of lives by torturing a couple 1 of which was admitting to being the terrorist?

UNTHINKABLE is a pretty interesting single location thriller about the efforts of a crack government team to get a terrorist to reveal the location of not one, not two, but three nuclear bombs which he has hidden in the USA. It's quite a gruelling viewing experience but one which works thanks to the high levels of suspense and a genuinely unforeseeable outcome.I tend to avoid films like this one as they're often self-consciously preachy in their attempts to tell a message. UNTHINKABLE does have something of an anti-American vibe going on, but it doesn't really affect the outcome of what is an efficient thriller. The person holding the film together is Samuel L. Jackson, who quite wonderfully gives one of those barnstorming, larger-than-life performances that we used to see back in the 1990s. Jackson reminds me of Gary Oldman a little: both are actors who came to fame with their angry performances, but who Hollywood have subdued in the last fifteen years or so. It's great to see the old fire back.The rest of the cast are all right, although not on Jackson's level. I don't like Michael Sheen very much and find him an odd choice to play the terrorist; I guess casting a genuine Arab actor in the role would have been too controversial. Carrie-Anne Moss does quite well as the protagonist although the straight role she plays is quite a boring one. Two character actors, Gil Bellows and Stephen Root, are both very good in smaller roles. There are some hard-hitting torture sequences in this film which I didn't see coming, and an against-the-clock climax which ratchets up the tension no end.

Most reviewers (pro and con) miss the real point of this excellent movie....it's not really about the bomber or the torturer. We can't see ourselves as either (I hope). But we could be any of the surrounding cast of characters. And if that was you, what would you do?1) Walk away? Some did. 2) Support the torture? Some did. 3) Stop the torture? Some tried. 4) Both support & oppose the torture? Some did.And you? What would you have done as (? insert name ?)?And me? Probably # 2. And Hillary? Donald? Bernie? Ted?Sadly, this scenario has probably played itself out already (Abu Graib?). And more sadly, will again.
