Unthinkable is referred to a movie that lately came out-http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0914863/
Basically the story is that some terrorist plants three(spoiler-four) nuclear bombs in different parts of USA and then lets himself get caught. The Terrorist is ethnic American who moved to Islamabad and changed his religion and whole mentality, I can't remember his original name so let's just call him Stewie. Subsequently, he imposes several demands, I can't remember all of them either, however I'm sure there was "USA must stop financing the totalitarian regimes in all Islamic countries" and if I'm not mistaken, withdrawing armies from same Islamic countries.
Soon after Stewie gets caught, Samuel L. Jackson, who is a professional torturer-interrogator starts doing his job, that is, torturing Stewie in order to find out the location of bombs. There is also character played by Carrie-Ann Moss (trinity from Matrix) who is kind of a "good cop". there are few moments to be mentioned, first, in the process of interrogation, Stewie manages to blow up a shopping mall, killing 53 people. when Trinity accuses her of this, Stewie just says "oh so what Alah will take care of them" and few moments later he gets emotional and starts to yell that Americans kill 50 people every day so it's not a big deal after all.
in the end:
1. Stewie looks like just a good guy in a bad situation, the whole movie is trying to make you compassionate towards him. He's also a good father, a loving husband, patriot, and a deeply religious man (but not a fundamentalist of course!). Oh alright he planted few nuclear bombs, but Americans hanged Saddam, so it's justifiable.
2.Samuel L. Jackson is the big villain here, he is ready to do virtually anything to find those bombs, and that's just wrong.
3. the rest of the characters are good guys, except the mysterious suit-dressed nameless "Agent" who represents the president.
the fourth bomb blows up.
Needless to say that whole moral judgment is deeply screwed here. what does "financing totalitarian regimes" mean? are there democratic regimes somewhere in the middle-eastern Islamic countries? This movie offers false judgments about political situation, religion, morals and reason in general. Now I know that "censorship" stimulates an automatic hostile response, but how do you think, would it be somehow possible to defend the world society from this kind of garbage? Or any pop-industry garbage at all? I think it would be a good idea to ensure that no sadism was allowed to be shot (e.g Saw series), that would already be a big step forward.
