  • 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi - Review

    Lacking in that human, rawness that the story demands.

    Hi Bob, thanks for your comment. Though you've misjudged my review completely. Any criticisms I have are about this as a piece of cinema, that's an important distinction to make and what my job requires me to do. Any apprehensions I have are solely and squarely a response to the film. So when I say I struggled to form an emotional connection, that is a fault of the filmmakers, and not associated to the real events whatsoever. Oh and by the way, I did actually set up an interview with the surviving members of the Benghazi Attack, and we got on just fine, thanks. http://youtu.be/1EeYDkO6Z4Y

    " A struggle to fully connect with their situation" Did your reviewer even watch the movie? Sounds like he just took a couple of tokes, called Michael Moore to compare panty sizes, then phoned it in. You should probably not hire anyone who still lives in their mothers basement. I would challenge him to set up an interview with the surviving members of the Benghazi team so that he may express his view of the events in person.

    I don't know where you reviewers come from . The point of the movie is the bravery and dedication of some Americans and the lack of support that came from the USA . You want character development go see Nicholas Sparks . the movie is the story as it happened . anything less than that , you would have complained it was not true and had too much added in to the story.
