Score 3/6

A group of Navy SEALs come to learn the identity of their target: Osama bin Laden.

I often wonder when films about important historical events such as the killing of Osama Bin Laden if filmmakers should immediately make the movie about the historical event or if they should wait, because you have to wonder how close to the truth a movie like this really is. Judging by the quality of Seal Team Six maybe the filmmakers should not have bothered. The movie was not a complete waste of time but I do not see myself re-watching this movie any time soon. I suppose the only impressive thing with the movie I found stylistically was the interviews used throughout the movie that rather reminded me of the 2003 movie 44 minutes: The North Hollywood shoot-out.

If you were given the opportunity of watching movies about the death of Osama Bin Laden, I would recommend watching Zero Dark Thirty instead of Seal Team Six: The Raid on Osama Bin Laden
