Watch a Clip from Zero Dark Thirty

Early reviews of Kathryn Bigelow’s upcoming thriller documenting the killing of Osama Bin Laden posit Zero Dark Thirty in the same breath as Bigelow’s Oscar-winning The Hurt Locker, calling it an intense inside-look into the hunt for America’s most highly sought terrorist.

A clip from the upcoming film has arrived and it certainly fits the descriptions coming from critics. The clip appears to detail the tense moments in which the elite team of Navy SEALs are boarding their transports for the mission, as Jessica Chastain, playing the CIA operative spearheading the operation, looks on.

Zero Dark Thirty hits select theaters on Dec. 19 and goes wide on Jan. 11. Watch the clip below.
