4.0 out of 5 starsStunning acting: controversial subject...
By Rowena Hoseason HALL OF FAMETOP 50 REVIEWER on 31 May 2014
Format: DVD
Unthinkable features two such rippingly blistering performances from the male antagonists, centred around one of the dirty open secrets of the modern era, that it's easy to forgive the nonsensical plot devices which exist only to bring the trio of leads together in intimate, appalling confrontation.
Samuel L and Michael Sheen are so convincingly committed, so determined in the righteousness of their causes and of success at any cost, that we could barely glance away from the screen for the whole running time. Carrie-Ann Moss has a harder job, portraying as she does the only person with a scrap of decency. Inevitably, gender stereotypes assert themselves as she plays the role of intermediate, of peace-maker; seeking a compromise to save millions from nuclear annihilation... and to save one man's family from brutal torture.

The themes in Unthinkable are far from new - and have been covered in recent years with more subtlety in, say, Rendition, where we never knew if the brutalised suspect was guilty of anything or not. Here, there is a clear and verified threat (although it may be a hoax, who knows?), and the interrogation team becomes increasingly desperate to prevent the deaths of many. In so doing, some of them seem willing to dispense with the very moral code they claim to be fighting to uphold. And on that sticky situation rests a couple of hours of virtuoso acting - and not a little blood-soaked violence.
When 53 Americans are killed, in the film, it's a national disaster. When American drones / forces kill 53 foreign civilians in actions overseas, it's called collateral damage.

Gripping and difficult, Unthinkable crams all of this into the tight confines of what feels like a stage play - one based around an interrogation cell where the worst things in the world happen. Afterwards, elements of the plot make scant sense, but while you're caught up in the moment it is compelling stuff.

4.0 out of 5 stars'TENSE AND BRUTAL' (UNCOMFORTABLE TO WATCH AT TIMES)
By rbmusicman/and/movie-fan' TOP 50 REVIEWER on 13 Aug. 2014
Format: Blu-ray
Samuel .L Jackson' and 'Martin Sheen' both bring outstanding performances to the screen in this 'brutal' yet 'brilliant' movie.
A former U.S. nuclear expert turns terrorist as he claims to have planted three nuclear bombs in three major U.S cities, all set to explode in a few days time.
F.B.I agent 'Helen Brody' (Carrie-Anne Moss) is set the task of finding the suspect, however it seems that the terrorist is allready in custody to enable his demands to be heard.
'H' ( Jackson ) is a specialist iin extracting the truth from prisoners, he has his own way of doing things.
'H' asks for 'Brody' to be his assistant for the interegation, seeing the lengths 'H' is prepared to go makes her a reluctant partner, perhaps the voice of reason ammist the violence 'H' inflicts, however time is running out, just what deapths will 'H' sink to in his effort to find the bombs ? ----perhaps----unthinkable.
this is a really clever and tense plot that will draw you in as time runs out.

4.0 out of 5 starsA controversial film that leaves you with no answers but hot and uneasy questions
By Elleppi on 28 Aug. 2015
Format: Blu-ray Verified Purchase
An edgy and though provoking film that has been censored and not so well distributed, since it deal with some very controversial topics, like the line between national security and mere violence, resulting in a tough pamphlet (yet terrificly compelling story) where you really can't tell who is right and who is wrong. And talking about terrorism, that was an uneasy, uncommon and brave operation to do in america and in the years when if was made.
Basically the character of Sam Jackson turns out to be the dangerous, violent yet inevitable and hidden symbol of the price we pay to preserve ourselves, the bloody weapon that, supposedly, guarantee are freedom and lifestyle. And viewers are led to think about it, with no definitve answer, but being left alone with a disturbing, unsettling feeling of uncertainty and unease. A great cast (the bad guy is a dramatic and diabolique Michael Sheen, the guy from Frost/Nixon).

4.0 out of 5 starsDark, depressing and depraved (yet actually quite good)
By Albatross on 4 May 2014
Format: DVD Verified Purchase
It’s fair to say that ‘Unthinkable’ is NOT a ‘feel-good’ movie. The film deals with what many (Americans?) would say is an ‘unthinkable’ situation, where a trusted American citizen who’s been born and bred to love their country, ‘defects’ to ‘the enemy’ and places nuclear devices around the country in the name of a world religion.

However, all is not lost, for the powers that be have already captured the offender (Martin Sheen) and he’s been placed in a secure (and totally off-the-grid) facility where Samuel L Jackson and Carrie Moss must extract the information they need before the bombs go off. It’s fair to say that Samuel and Carrie go about this in vastly different ways.

Unthinkable was never going to be a hit. It’s too dark and deals with issues of modern life (and politics/religion) that many will not find easy to address. However, perhaps its lack of social niceties actually makes it all the more worth viewing. And it’s uncomfortable viewing at that. Those with a strong stomach may well not want to watch the ways Samuel L Jackson tries to get the information out of Martin Sheen. In some respects it’s almost a ‘torture porn’ film.

It’s a thriller with little actual thrills, but plenty of tension. If you’re a fan of political thrillers (and aren’t too squeamish) then Unthinkable is a safe bet. All three of the leading actors play their parts well, especially Martin Sheen, who has the unfortunate job of being constantly on the receiving end of Samuel L Jackson’s various implements of torture for the best part of ninety minutes. Plus it raises the issues of how far we should go to save the many. After watching Unthinkable, I’m reminded of the quote Spock used in ‘Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan.’ He said, ‘The needs of the many out way the needs of the few (or the one).’ That theory is really pushed to the limits here.
