After receiving intelligence that their quarry is hiding out in a compound in Pakistan, the CIA mobilise crack US Navy Seal Team 6 to train for a daring night-time raid. After arriving at Bagram Air Base in Afghanistan, and being put through punishingly intensive training for their mission, the team learn that their target is Osama Bin Laden, codename: Geronimo. As they set out on the deadliest mission of their lives, the unit must come together in one final, all or nothing attempt to take down America's most wanted terrorist. (Paramount Pictures AU)

At a time when several years had passed since the death of Osama bin Laden, two movies appeared that told the story of the last hours of his life before US Infantry stormed in and sprayed everything with a shower of bullets, which they had undoubtedly bought somewhere in the same neighborhood. At first glance, this movie will be definitely worse than the one Katheryn Bigelow put together. But still, this TV movie could be a bit of surprise. And I have to say it was. For a TV movie, the action is pretty good and the plot couldn’t have been written even by life itself, or wait, it actually was.
