13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi (2016) Reviews
Must see

This is a movie that your government doesn't want you to see. Great acting, great action, and great explanation of what happened in Benghazi. Let's you understand why Benghazi is still in the news and why it should be!
Some of the paid movie critics--particularly those from liberal publications--are attempting to diss the movie. They are way off base. The movie doesn't get caught up in trying to send a message or politics. In fact, I don't believe that Obama's or Clinton's names are even mentioned in the move. The director has even said that he went out of his way to keep politics out of the movie. The movie just shows what happened in Benghazi--or rather, what didn't happen in Benghazi. What didn't happen, was that no air help was given to those under attack despite multiple calls for help. People died because nothing was done. Terrible!
