Unthinkable (2010)


A man claims to have hidden 3 atomic bombs around the country and a specialist is brought in to extract the information. Kind of along the lines of Gone Baby Gone (2007) in that the movie creates a moral dilemma. This movie depicts pretty aggressive methods of torture, although not too graphically, so be warned. I thought this was a good look at what the western world faces today. The very values we hold dear are being exploited to destroy our way of life, so do we go down with the ship or suspend those values? Twice before this choice has been made. Either way you come down, there are no easy answers, especially when encountering the extremes. Recommended.
