Four More Years.

There is no denying that Barack Obama’s term as President has been littered with major historical moments. Not least when he became the US leader to find the world’s most wanted man, Osama bin Laden. Now this story comes to the UK as Code Name: Geronimo on 24 December 2012. From the producer of the multi-Academy Award winning The Hurt Locker, this is the gripping account of what has been labelled the greatest manhunt in history.



Described as an “exciting drone-and-dagger film that generates a ridiculous amount of suspense,” (The Philadelphia Enquirer), the film stars Cam Gigandet (Easy A; Twilight; The O.C.), Anson Mount (Straw Dogs; All The Boys Love Mandy Lane), Freddy Rodriguez (Ugly Betty; Planet Terror; Six Feet Under) and Alvin ‘Xzibit’ Joiner (Bad Lieutenant; Derailed; xXx2: The Next Level) as the Navy SEALS who hunt down bin Laden. Acting on a tip-off from a Guantanamo Bay detainee, the SEALS are appointed to spearhead one of the most clandestine and audacious military operations of a generation. Initially unaware that their target is the most wanted man in the world, the members of SEAL Team Six begin training for their mission, one that will culminate in a daring night-time raid on the bin Laden compound.

This is a must for all fans of gritty war cinema in the vein of The Hurt Locker, Black Hawk Down, Green Zone and The Kingdom – as well as thrilling war games like Call of Duty – who will revel in the movie’s action set-pieces and its nail-biting finale. Fans of hit TV series Homeland, meanwhile, will love the thrilling dramatised true account of the CIA’s hunt for bin Laden.

EDIT – Three clips for you!
