I enjoyed this and was action packed. The PQ was superb. I do feel at times it was a little over the top and “Hollywood-ized “. A little “gung ho”. Still was a great movie with gorgeous visuals.

everything you wanted to know about bengahzi but were afraid to ask. Behind the scenes account of when Hillary let the world down. Lots of action, one liners, and true guts.

I know, the phrase "pulse pounding" is greatly over used these days, but believe me when I say this movie is a freakin nasty pulse pounding action machine!!!!!!!! If you are like me, and the mere idea of special forces guys running an operation makes you giddy, then this is a must see. It has legit action, nail biting suspense, and dash of feel good all rolled into one awesome movie that I would put on the same level as Black Hawk Down!!!!

This is my favorite movie of the year. Intense action, incredible bravery, putting their lives on the line to save 35 other lives, unselfishness, strong characters who readily sacrificed their personal safety for each other. There so much good in this movie that it's difficult to sum it up. The most important thing to remember is that it's all true, and it doesn't lapse into a political diatribe. Just pay attention to the scenes of the drones recording all of the action overhead while defense leadership watches in Washington and does nothing to help save them and American military forces getting ready in Croatia and Sicily, but their orders to head for Bengazi never come. In fact, this entire story was corroborated by the report of the House Select Committee. The first time I saw the movie I left the theater angry and ashamed that the most powerful military in the world never made any effort to save these people. Ever wonder how the 2012 election would have gone had all of these defenders had died along with the 35 people they were fighting to protect? Michael Bay did the story the right way - he captured the raw power of this true story without lapsing into moralizing. It's all there, you watch it like a witness to a crime and you are allowed to come to your own conclusions. The acting was very strong and realistic. And the last few scenes really are disturbing - the Libyan force that arrives to save them came at the request, not of the American Government or because they had a contract with the CIA, but of one of the CIA operatives who happened to know the leader. And, when the rescued Americans finally make it to the Bengazi airport, no American plane comes to take them out. That is left to the Libyans. Astonishing!

I hardly ever go to the movie theaters anymore but I went and saw this the first week it came out. Highly effective military themed war movie which depicted the events that occurred in Libya when radical islamist forces stormed an American Embassy compound and killed one of our ambassadors. The action is tense and realistically depicted and the pacing of the movie kept me on the edge of my seat for the duration. I highly recommend everyone who's interested in events in the Middle East to give this movie a chance so they can learn more about how our diplomatic Personnel were left undefended and vulnerable to threats which were known at the time.

Excellent movie and story told boldly.Everyone should watch this film as a history lesson.I will not go into the politics involved in why this scenario happened to these people.But it should serve as a cautionary history lesson.Where to go, what to do and when to act.These soldiers and civilians acted and responded heroically as the political machine hung them out to dry.This should have never happened.If our government had any good sense of morales and cared about human beings in general, this would never of happened.Or would ever happen again.The actors are stellar in their portrayals and performances.The fight sciences and buildup throughout the film is gripping and heartbreaking.Camera work is excellent.The night time shots are incredible!Hats off to everyone involved in producing a film that holds up after multiple views throughout the years.I still feel like I am watching this story for the first time each and every time I view it.I highly recommend you purchase a copy of this movie and let friend and family view it.Everyone should know what took place in Benghazi.Incredible and sad all at once.

can you imagine our secretary of state at the time got away with her lame job performance! She should be in jail! This movie is great, has amazing FUNNY lines, fast action, really sets a nice pace. The sound is great, can't say enough good things about the sound, it has what you expect for the money you spend on a disk of this magnitude, the money they spent was well placed. You get high quality content. The CGI is so realistic you forget its CGI and just fall into the story and lose yourself in the emotion and staging of the drama and action.

I have always like Michael Bays' films on war and his take on smaller war events in history, and this one take it to new heights in terms of action and what was perceived and all the political BS that supposedly took place. The action is brilliant and the camera angles are perfect, especially those drone shots (observing this on Amazon Prime 4K and the actual 4K BD in Dolby Vision makes a huge difference). The Dolby Atmos Surround Sound resonates with the explosions and firepower throughout the film itself. Just wish they released it with a BD for legacy players and content, but streaming is just as fine.

This is one of my favorite movies recently. I find myself watching it frequently. And I am not a huge Michael Bay fan, although Chuck Hogan was associated with this so that is probably why it turned out so well. I've been championing this to be released in 4K & I was well rewarded. The image is sharp and the colors are very vivid. If you haven't watched this film at all, or are contemplating getting in in 4K, do yourself and favor and go for it.

A gritty tale of perseverance, brotherhood, sacrifice, and dedication, this movie does a great job relaying the attacks on the US embassy in Benghazi and the people who defended it. Kris "Tonto" Paronto, John "Tig" Tiegen, and "Boon" all worked with director Michael Bay making sure the account was done right. It's an intense 13 hours that by the end will have you appreciating our brave men and women who defend this country home and abroad.

Dated. It helps you learn a little bit and understand what truly went on with these soldiers in Benghazi. We all know that there are left and right different views on what really went down hint Hillary Clinton. But this along with the explosiveness of Michael Bay shows us what we don't want to go through as human beings and what these guys do go through to protect. I would highly recommend this and thank you guys for protecting the United States

I have watched this movie 5-6 times and it never gets old. Great action, acting, and realism. The movie is based on actual events. I believe that 2 or 3 of the actual 'special' operators were consultants during the making of this film. The producers and director also don't point fingers or politicize the movie which is to their credit, considering the massive scrutiny that occurred after this event. I also have great respect for the men and women who served during these attacks and everybody else that defends our nation. 4K is awesome!

An excellent outing for director Michael Bay. I Didn't know he had it in him to make a thought provoking film. A gritty no-nonsense film, and you learn little bit of history here too. A tribute to those who were there and the sacrifices they made. The 4K transfer is excellent. The brights,the darks and the shadow details are what makes this transfer noticeable. Go get it!.

The movie itself is absolutely fantastic. I highly recommend it! That being said, if you have any kind of surroundsound, and especially an Atmos system, you are doing a disservice if you don’t have this movie. It is the best surround and Atmos sound I’ve heard at home yet… Hands-down!

Haven't watched this in theater and heard great things about the movie. I was blown away on how they present it both sight and sound! Great presentation using both dolby vision and ATMOS that when you're playing it using good system, you're gonna be engrossed with the film. Love the movie, love this disc. It's a demo worthy to show off your system.

13 Hours The Secret Service of Benghazi is a great movie that tells the real story of what went on during the attack on the US Embassy in Benghazzi September 11, 2012. It is an intense movie that is gripping but also very sad as lives were lost that very well could have been avoided. Many real life heroes are revealed in this attack on the U.S.

The harrowing tale of Americans stuck in Benghazi (considered the most dangerous place on Earth at that time), it's a story of survival. The gritty in-your-face combat is made more harrowing with the 4K quality of this title. The Atmos audio just envelops you so realistically. The horrors of war in 4K. Highly recommended, but not the war.

Great movie! Even better in 4K. Watched the movie in the theater and really enjoyed it. Bluray was cool but you’ll notice so much more detail with uhd and hdr, especially given the dark sets of the movie.

Now I don’t necessarily take everything in a movie as “as it happened”. But some did happened as told, sadly people have their lives to protect others and this shows some of the hell they went through. Check this movie out! One of Michael bays best, don’t let that put you out it’s actually perfectly executed

Excellent action and a great true story that most people have forgotten about. One of the few films to come out of liberal Hollywood that throws shade on the Obama era administration that allowed this to happen. Both Hillary and Obama did nothing to prevent it and nothing to help while it happened and provided lame excuses about what sparked it. Highly recommended!!
