Advocacy of Torture?

I will probably watch the movie, though I am wary of it being a tool for cheering the National Government's GWOT and all that it entails. I have read that Kathryn Bigelow and Mark Boal have depicted torture as a matter of fact, without passing judgment, showing that it was necessary to get the information that lead to the discovery of Osama Bin Laden. But in doing so, does the movie justify the use of torture, by claiming that in this instance it was effective in attaining its purpose?
