13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi Ratings & Reviews
- TubzJuly 5, 2025Excellent retelling of actual events, no woke, no political correctness, just brave people fighting to stay alive.
- Ted Malone7d agoThis is a solid telling of the story and works well on the screen
- KainJanuary 26, 2025these guys were let down by us government. it’s a sad and heroic movie.
- NumiSeptember 11, 2025As a fan of military action films, 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi really hit the mark for me. It’s intense, gritty, and doesn’t waste time getting into the chaos of the 2012 attack. Michael Bay tones down the usual flash and instead delivers a surprisingly grounded portrayal of the six ex-military contractors who held the line under impossible conditions. The combat sequences are brutal and relentless, and John Krasinski steps up with a performance that’s both tough and emotionally grounded. Sure, it doesn’t dive deep into the political side of the story, but as a boots-on-the-ground war thriller, it’s gripping and respectful of the real-life heroes. Based on general consensus, I’d give it a strong 4 out of 5—a must-watch for anyone who appreciates raw, high-stakes military storytelling.

- Mister ArnMay 18, 2025"13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi" offers intense action scenes yet falls short in character development, preventing it from being a truly outstanding film. If you like action, you will find it here.
- Motaba Movie centerMarch 14, 2025A real, fast-paced action movie, a bit like The Falcon and the Death Star. This shows that directing an action movie is at least as difficult as directing any other style of movie, it just requires a different kind of flair. You may love it or not, but Michael Bay is one of the best in this genre. There are a few tongue-in-cheek parts here, and a few scenes could have been cut shorter, but regardless, it is an exciting and tense movie. It was a particularly pleasant surprise to see John Krasinski in a serious role.
