Customer Ratings & Reviews

13 Hours is, without doubt, one the most moving, dramatic, intense and powerful moving-pictures that I have ever viewed. The director, Michael Bay, had a keen eye for authenticity, dramatic special effects as-well-as telling the “real” story capturing the essence of the multiple attacks on two American compounds in Libya 2012. He got it right – he captured the core and spirit of the attacks, the lingo and “moves” of the defenders, and he also told the story of career bureaucrats who both hesitated and “bumbled” their responsibilities. If this film does not hold your attention no film ever will – it’s highly realistic, “on-point” during its entire duration, high-speed all the way and it is a credit the Director, the entire Cast and Production Crew. You won’t believe this story until you see it. Our guys did themselves well but our command structure did not do well by them! This is a story of true American heroism and it is also a story of failure, embarrassment and tragedy that could have been prevented – since its implication and significant meaning is powerful you will be inclined to come back to it more than just once.

Above average acting, lots of guns and explosions, semi accurate military information, and pretty much on par with how the federal gov is ran with regards to the FBI and higher ups. Regardless of which side of the political spectrum you are on, watch it and take it for the quality of the movie.

This is a really good war movie. It's partly a rescue and partly a defense against attack. Truth is more stunning than fiction. The entire cast does an amazing job bringing the tragic events to life.

Lot of action good story love it I would recommend this to anybody who want to watch a good war movie

This movie is truly a diamond in the rough. If you enjoy military movies then you should definitely put this on your list. The acting was truly superb and the movie absorbs you as to where you feel like you are in the middle of the action. It's terrifying to see what our soldiers go through across Seas with the daily scenarios, and it gives you a true sense as to why they are our heroes. This was a great movie.

I originally wrote this movie off the moment I saw it. John Krasinski of The Office fame in a starring role as a hardened military veteran? And directed by the master of explosions, Michael Bay no less? There's no way that this is going to have any substance or be much of anything. Oh, how wonderfully wrong I was. This film is without a doubt one of my favorite films of 2016 and I can highly recommend it without question. It's visceral, it's guttural & most importantly it depicts the reality of our actions. Every part of it manages to touch you in one way or another. You'll be laced with emotions throughout your entire viewing. Word of the wise, it's not for the faint of heart. There are instances where things can be a little 'too real' for some with weak stomachs. Again, I highly recommend this film and the steelbook itself is quite great.

We enjoyed this movie very much and feel that the producer and the actors in the movie did a pretty good job at portraying the incidents that led to the deaths of our fellow Americans. It is one that I well watch more than a few times.

Excellent portrayal of the events and terrorist attack on the US consulate and compound that occurred in Benghazi. The movie is really interesting as it has character development, showing the lives and the security team’s missions, before the fateful night. The team’s heroics is remarkable. But what is frustrating is the administrative hurdles that held them back, along with the lack of any response, no Marine rescue platoon or even a flyby from fighter jets. Being a Michael Bay film, there is plenty of action scenes that shows the horrors of war. But more important, it shows the bravery of those who lost their lives protecting Americans against a terrorist attack.

Being prior service I can relate to this movie, this movie will have you very upset and wanting to jump into screen to lay down some cover fire! Just an over all great movie.

This is a MUST see! Very intense, very emotional. I've already watched it several times! Would give more than 5 stars if that were possible. Every American should see this.

The Liberal media critics slammed this movie ........... The people who actually watched this movie gave it 5 Stars . The movie did not talk political sides .... but it made you wonder :What happened to the calvary? " A surprisingly very well made movie .

A Powerful film depicting true events, an embarrassment and tragedy which could have been avoided. This movie is not for the faint of heart, as there are a number of scenes with graphic depiction of injuries. But great movie overall. Get it now!!!

I'm a huge Bay fan as it is, and this is by far his best film...great action, great story, must see film!

A well made movie. It shows an aspect rarely seen in movies...the private contractor. Looks great in 4K!!

Not only does it give you action it show a lot about the life they have to lead to serve

This movie reflects the individuals both Military and non-Military who are out there fighting for our Freedoms while or Government just washes them aside when things get tough. But the men and women stationed abroad still keep on fighting even though the government has given up on them! Excellent movie. My hats off to the men and women who are working overseas for our freedoms.

This DVD is one of my favorite war movies. if u haven't seen it is a must.

Very exciting non-stop action filled rendition of a true story.
