not much to say
Good movie, not a waste of money
However, i guess it was anti-climactic, if our government had changed things since then, it would have meant more, but knowing they are still covering up for the lack of support, which the movie CLEARLY COVERS the repeated calls for it...
It is worth the price. Go see it.
Your source, please???
its in the movie, too :)
I’m referring to the TWO C-130 at Sicily, NOT correct???
Here is my review if the movie 13 hours which I saw last night. (Michael Medved who was also at the screening will do a better job of reviewing it probably)
It is very difficult to make a movie about a real life story that is very fresh, not an old story, and do it by portraying the truthful events.
It is much easier to take artistic license and create incredible situations and huge explosions and drama that never took place.
13 hours, tells the true story in a non-political way and does it very well. There is not a single mention of politics that I can recall and it and no politicians names ever mentioned. It is just a straight-up factual dramatization.
The acting excluding one character for a portion of the movie, was very good.
The movie making was also very well done, Michael Bay did a good job as usual.
Even though I was very aware of the story of Benghazi, I learned some new things there and cleared up some misconceptions I had.
One example is I forgot the consulate was not the only place attacked, in my mind I had forgotten that after the consulate was attacked the annex was where the 13 hour mostly took place. For some reason I remembered everything taking place at the consulate.
Present day politics of course are on everybody’s mind and I would say that people who have not paid attention to the Benghazi story at all if they watch this movie they will be asking why certain politicians did not send help.
I’m not a professional movie reviewer so I’m not going to give it 3 year for 5 stars I just recommend everybody see it.
One last note, I did this by voice to text while getting the tire on my suburban fixed so any goofy spellings or weird words that should not be in this I take no responsibility for and I blame Google.

Updated review....saw movie with Medved in theatre.
Today Medved us feeling so good on his show because his favirote patsies/loser types all feel like Cruz imploded last nite.
Suck it Trebeck/Medved....not so!
So sad your buddy Lyndsey Graham is out and Jeb soon to be as well....unless you think Linda Lou’s endorsement means something.
Establishment is crash and burn in the primaries this year Michael...just lime they do every general election.
You are not smarter nor better than the base.
not that specifically, but planes starting to scramble, yes, then...crickets
