It wants to be Bourne meets 24, but falls way short of its mark. Go to Full Review

Code Name: Geronimo is a film whose defects are entirely balanced by its positive aspects. Go to Full Review
Peter Bradshaw Guardian 12/13/2012
1/5
As a thriller, it is cack-handed and boring, and as a drama it is badly acted and utterly incurious about what it was really like to be one of the soldiers who took part - relying abjectly on cliches. Go to Full Review

2/5
Attempts to capture the nail-biting tension of those fateful events last May, but with precious little style or panache. Go to Full Review
Philip French Observer (UK) 12/16/2012
Triumphalism is avoided, but the Seals' macho talk and a brutal fight between the two competitors for leadership of the assault team strike a false note. Go to Full Review

andrea c @Charst 03/01/2021 Come è possibile presentare un film su uno degli eventi della storia recente più noto al grande pubblico, e farlo con degli evidenti errori nella trama? Oltre a questo ci si mette un paio di relazioni e rapporti abbozzati che non fanno altro che sminuire la trama. Peccato perchè i ritmi sono abilmente gestiti sia nelle parti più rapide ed intense che nelle parti più lente. See more Mayank A @Mayank197 08/17/2019 What a let-down, has the looks and feel of low production values, the same carries forward to the script and casting. It is not a thriller, nor exciting, only saving grace is it is comparatively a short movie. The movie covers the operation which took down Osama bin Laden, just save your time and watch Zero Dark Thirty instead which is a great take covering the same events. See more 08/15/2019 very bad job by makers, not enough research done and poor editing job as well. Most of the scenes of pakistan were shot in India, that is ok as nobody wants to go to that place, its ok. But Indian flags seen in market, shops with Indian gods and names, not sure what the team was doing when shooting and making a film. Even the cars have a right hand drive, whereas in Pakistan its on left. half hearted effort and poorly executed. See more 01/01/2018 Very poor film as per Hollywood standards. Poorly directed. The film is shot in Mumbai, India as said to be in Peshawar and Abottabad, Pakistan. The people speak Hindi instead of Urdu or Pashto. There are shots of Indian flag as well. The license plates of cars are of Maharashtra, India. The depiction Bin Laden is extremely poor too. Rubbish film. See more 06/17/2017 It is movies like these that spread wrong info around. At least put a disclaimer in the beginning saying due to lower production costs or safety concerns the film could not be shot in Pakistan. Right at the beginning, since when did Mumbai become Peshawar and since when did Hindi become Pashto. See more 12/09/2016 Un film fatto quasi esclusivamente per sfruttare l'onda di entusiasmo dovuta alla uccisione di Osama Bin Laden. La pellicola ci racconta in modo abbastanza piatto come è avvenuta la preparazione pre-blitz e ovviamente anche il blitz. Il tutto condito da storie personali abbastanza inutili così come gli attori che sono di livello abbastanza scadente. See more Read all reviews
