Thanks.
I have no doubt it is a compelling movie. Did you see American Sniper too? Would be interested in a comparison of the two if you did.
I plan to see it Sunday or Monday.
Looking forward to seeing it. I hope it does as well as American Sniper.
Every review I’ve heard is generally positive.
I will be seeing 13 hours next week.
Saw it today here in SoCal. Very good movie. As the credit’s rolled at the end, one guy in the theatre yelled “I hope you are happy Hillary!”.
The pathetic media in south Florida is saying that garbage comedy “Ride Along 2” should BEAT “Star Wars” this weekend for being #1 at the box office.
I am going to go see “13 Hours” and hope THAT movie crushes “Ride Along 2”.
does Hillary dispute any of the details in the movie?
someone should ask her.
Great action, but....I was still a little disappointed:
I like military stuff, yes, but by far the most interesting thing about Benghazi was the universal amazement of so many high-ranking military people that no forces were sent to help, when there were AC-130’s both at Sigonella Sicily (which is closer to Benghazi than Tripoli and hosts a complete US naval air station) and also at our (then secret) base at the old French Foreign Legion base at Djibouti.
The other interesting part totally omitted in the film was the very detailed speculation regarding WHY it was so important to Obama and Valerie Jarrett that they do nothing to help those men.
The re-election was then just 5 or so weeks away, and 110% of their attention regarding Benghazi was how the fighting and any rescue might impact their re-election, which was widely forecast to be a squeeker.
Obama went to sleep and flew to Vegas the next morning for golf with a rapper and for some fundraisers. Most people think the details that night after 6 pm or so were handled by Valerie Jarret and Leon Panetta, who resigned shortly thereafter.
The other part left out totally was just how long and hard they were begging for help on the phone, radio, and even on the internet (seeing how badly they were being ignored by their entire chain of command, the goatee IT specialist guy even begged for help from his videogame friends, and indeed at several junctures the filmmakers show him still darting around during the attack wearing his videogamer headset, which he had been screaming into for several hours).
The movie is very good, however it’s mostly a Cowboy Western shoot-em-up film with lots of SAND.
What’s the main feeling you walked away with...
Saw the movie tonight, got home about an hour ago.
Regardless of whether or not a “stand down” was given or not, the real insult was revealed at the end of the movie. Without reading their account before hand and not seeing it mentioned I was just speechless.
I saw it tonight also , after work , after an 8 hr shift
I left the movie furious ....just furious
and the persons responsible are still denying all culpability
and have never been held accountable
This is sickening to an extreme
AMERICA ! WAKE THE F UP !
Wish Republicans weren't such idiots so the Dems could have been brought to justice. That's heartbreaking among other things.
