Comments on Critical reception section

[edit]

The section has two obvious problems. The first is the rather silly, puzzling template (suggesting a bias that the reviews were all from the U.S. perspective)...there has been no discussion on this Talk page about it, I don't believe anyone would object to adding reviews from outside the United States (yet no one has done so), and it is an American movie so of course most of the reviews will be American. I get the sense that the movie (which I've not seen) was not as well received in some regions of the world. I am comfortable removing the template, but I post here first just in case. The second problem is that the reviews are far too much - extensive, numerous reviews with extended quotes. I don't believe all that is justified. I'd remove the extended quotes and a number of the other reviews (Wikipedia is not the place to compile all the reviews about a movie), leaving The Guardian review, which is the only foreign review.

2015 Vice Article

[edit]

This 2015 Vice article makes some pretty interesting claims about the CIA's involvement in the making of this movie, but I don't see any mention of it in the article or on this talk page. I didn't want to just jump in and write something about this into the article without discussing it first, but it's backed up by the report at the end of the article about CIA "Potential Ethics Violations Involving Film Producers." Does anyone have any thoughts on whether or not this should be mentioned in the article? - Aoidh (talk) 23:52, 11 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The Dark-Thirty

[edit]

Should this article mention the similarly named book titled The Dark Thirty? Derpyhoi (talk) 22:28, 27 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

"Enhanced" Interrogation

[edit]

Enhanced interrogation is a propaganda term for torture, and not used outside of the USA. To use that term without disclaimer seems neither geographically nor politically neutral. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.28.194.193 (talk) 11:13, 2 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
