> In an unfriendly environment they got 13 long hours to survive and resist the attack.
It is an action-thriller-war version of the 'Argo'. Based on the true story where the most of the film was the 13 hour long armed battle event took place in Libya, 2012. I remember the middle-east's protest over the western films, this story is set in the same time when the islamic terrorists targeted the American diplomatic compounds in Benghazi, but six brave men stood and fought against the uprising.
It is an American patriotic film, but because of the hatred over their own countrymen Michael Bay, …

If you fancy yourself a big swingin' dick yank, then I'd recommend you watch _13 Hours_, but of course, you already have.
I can move past the xenophobia and jingoism pretty easily, even the typical Bay tropes don't ruin a movie for me, but what I find difficult to abide is boredom, and with _13 Hours_, I personally found that in spades.

Critics have labeled this movie as rotten, but I find their justification questionable. There are countless classic films that are considered phenomenal and amazing, yet they are criticized harshly. This movie, in particular, is eye-opening as it sheds light on the chain of command involved in sending rescue missions.
Despite Hillary Clinton being blamed for the deaths of individuals in the film, it is evident that the power lies with Congress. The movie highlights this, yet she continues to be the target of blame.
Setting aside the controversies, this film is intense, action-packed, a…

For the movie that literally nothing happens but only thing that one side (Americans) are defending the place, movie should be shorter than standard time, but instead creators decided to make it longer than standard time. So, I had to withstand 2 hours and 24 minutes of boredom. I almost fell asleep to be honest.
