Navy SEALs at the Red Carpet of the movie.

US defense officials did not find out about the movie until after the fact, causing consternation at the Pentagon, which has an office that vets scripts and negotiates cooperation deals with Hollywood producers.

 "It's one thing to be filmed parachuting out of a plane, but it's another thing to be parachuting and land on the red carpet," a defense official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, told AFP.

 But the screen debut of active duty troops from a community that has always shunned media attention has irked some inside the military, who worry that a line has been crossed.
Defense officials at one point even weighed whether to prevent the film's release by withdrawing legal permission for footage of the SEALs and military hardware

The Pentagon, however, does not want a repeat of the episode and is spreading the word to commanders that future movie projects -- including a possible film on the Bin Laden raid -- must be approved beforehand, the defense official said.
"This hasn't been swept under the carpet," he said.

It appears that the SEALs ran a black op to get this movie done.  No approval from the Pentagon before filming began?

Now I know why the Navy Press Office released that statement stating that the film costs taxpayers no money...now I know why the Admiral in charge of SOCOM bristled when the SOCOM creator told him to get out of the press.
