Sort of a mini-IMAX. Where I live, CA, the price was over $15 and this was for an early matinee. Despite that, I would choose to see any movie on a big sharp screen like this.
As far as the movie, it was OK for me. It was 2 hours 40 minutes, and I found myself a bit bored at times. The film making was expert, the suspense during the final hour was maintained despite the inevitable reality that I knew how it ended (everyone does). But the build-up to the end was pretty protracted. And as with any such movie, I was left with doubts about historical accuracy versus cinematic punch. Did this agent's gut feeling really carry as much weight as portrayed? I wonder, and I doubt it.
Follow Ups:
I too had doubts about the weight the analyst's subjective belief that BHO was in the house carried, but, somebody's subjective belief, or the sum of several somebodys' beliefs, carried the day. As Bigelow pointed out on Letterman last night, she tried to portay events correctly as a whole with of course liberties being taken in the details. FWIW, she said that Maya's writing of the "days" on the glass wall of her superior's office was 100% accurate based on the info she was given.
