Watched the movie with 3 mores guys. Nobody agreed about the score. Nobody agreed about the main roles background and postures. No technical discussions about cinematography, music, lights, acting. We agreed about this as a heavy film. Difficult to digest. I'd like to see more about the main characters background and motives. But that is clearly not the purpose of the movie.

Altho I agree that Snakes on a Plane was a disaster and even Samuel couldn't save it, this movie is a totally different case. For me, this is maybe the best role that Samuel L. Jackson has played in a long time. Altho some of the scenes were filled with gore, the movie is a very good reality reminder.

Unthinkable deals with the torture of a terrorist who knows where he has placed a bomb which is going to go off soon killing hundreds. No matter how much you torture the terrorist he isn't willing to tell you the location of the bomb. What would you do? Would you bring his family in front of him and start to torture them instead to make him reveal the bomb's location? Could you torture a child in front of a father, a wife in front of her husband to save hundreds? This is the question that the film tries to deal with, explain, ask us. This movie is gripping and unpredictable. It's tense and suspenseful. This reminds me of a recent film called Eye In The Sky which made the audience and the lead characters face a similar dilemma. Both films are remarkable. Both Unthinkable and Eye In The Sky are thrillers that stay with you a long time after they have ended. They may seem like American propaganda films but they are much, much more as these situations will be faced by security forces the world over. Don't think, just watch this one.

I just watched this piece of fictional crap and almost had to turn it off after the seen where S. Jackson character kills the women by slitting her throat. In the next scene I was waiting for the people to come in and arrest him for murder but instead they come and beg him for more help. This is just stupid, as if the women FBI lead would come in and talk with H. after he had just cut that woman's throat right in front of her. I guess murdering women is just all in a days work for government supported torturer. RubbishSecondly they have totally shown the secret way of painful interrogation they carry out & there was one man show, no one even a general couldn't do anything to stop. Wow,
