Unthinkable (DVD, 2010)

Armed with the knowledge that their suspect has planted three nuclear bombs in three U.S. cities, black ops interrogator H (Samuel L. Jackson) and FBI Agent Helen Brody (Carrie-Anne Moss) resort to extreme methods to get the confession that could save missions of innocent lives. A former nuclear expert, Younger (Michael Sheen) has turned against his country. Shortly after Younger plants his bombs, he's apprehended by the nation's top anti-terrorism task force. But while Younger is in custody, the FBI can't get him to reveal where the nukes have been hidden. H may be able to get an answer, but once Agent Brody gets a glimpse of his tactics, she begins to wonder whether the good guys have finally stooped to the level of the terrorists, or if H is truly justified in fighting fire with fire. Co-starring Brandon Routh, Martin Donovan, and Stephen Root., Director David Slade abandons the imagined horror of 30 DAYS OF NIGHT for this reality-based thriller. In UNTHINKABLE, a trio of nuclear weapons are on the brink of killing millions, and a single man knows their location. This thriller addresses the always timely issue of torture, as the government must decide how to get information from the tight-lipped man in the efforts to save the country.
