Seldom have you seen a movie that makes you think about the anonymities of right and wrong. A flurry of emotions rarely ever descends from the heart of a director from the crew to the screen. A story with so rare aura, that captures the truth personified in two men is a must watch.

Seldom have you seen a movie that makes you think about the anonymities of right and wrong. A flurry of emotions rarely ever descends from the heart of a director from the crew to the screen. A story with so rare aura, that captures the truth personified in two men is a must watch.
Unthinkable, not caring for any prohibitions does exactly that, it raises the questions of the pain a man should suffer and the pain a man can impose on another man. It raises the integrity of authority with the question can a man take life in the name of religion, in the name on interrogation. Gregor Jordan, credited with directing classics as Buffalo Soldiers, Nerd Kelly and The informers, comes this time with Unthinkable.
The writer, Peter Woodward, an enthusiastic man engaged to cinema portrays his role in this project brilliantly. He writes the story beautifully capturing emotions at various levels of a man in danger and of the man implicating that danger. He is a man who performs various roles exceptionally such as an actor in Charmed, Fringe, writes great stuff; The House of Angelo, Closing the Ring and carries out works at all levels such as fight director, producer.
The plot gyrates around an American terrorist, Yusuf who claims to have planted nuclear bombs in three different anonymous cities in the America. Yet, he refuses to disclose the information of the location of the bombs. Special agent Helen Brody, heads the team of investigation fails to extract the required information from him. Agent 'H' is a special officer involved in the interrogation, and he has the authority to stoop to any level he wants to retrieve the vital information, that leads him to strapping down Yusuf's arm and chopping off his fingers.
And so it happens, Yusuf deliberately makes Brody go on a wrong track, which results in detonation of a bomb in a shopping mall killing 53 people. Enraged, 'H' bring Yusuf's wife thus resulting in her torture in front of Yusuf. Seeing no reaction from his side, 'H' grows impatient and slits the throat of his wife, making her to bleed to death in front of Yusuf. And so he decides to harm his children hoping he would speak then, but his fellow agents prevent him on doing so.
An incredible tale of terrorism, and its various aspects, bringing alive the pain a man can suffer and the pain a man can inflict by unfolding various levels of Yusuf and Agent 'H'. The tagline of the movie does justice to what the story holds in the inside, 'right and wrong no longer exist'.
Boosting of a talented cast, all of them giving memorable performance. Such as of Samuel L. Jackson, Carrie Anne Ross; known for portraying the role of Trinity from Matrix series, Brandon Routh; the hero of Superman returns, Michael Rose, Necar Zadegon, , Gill Bellows, Joshua Harto, Martin Donovan, Stephen Root. The movie has brilliant cinematography, with beautiful frames and emotions enraptured together. It couldn't be better.
