Torture is disturbing, even if you feel it's justified. I'm glad it was depicted this way in instead of some watered down pg-13 bs. Our country has done some messed up stuff in the name of safety and security, I don't think it should be glossed over.

Did they have to be so graphic and disturbing?
They had to, yes, because otherwise, some people might have complained the movie was glorifying torture oh wait didn't work.
So I guess they had to be graphic so that people didn't think they were justified in oh wait, never mind.
Seriously though, yes they had to. They were not meant to justify torture. They were meant to show the impact they had on everyone in the room, including the "interrogators".
