    13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi

    ★★★½

    The paper shredder used by the spec ops guys is completely not up to CIA code following the Iranian Embassy siege back in 1980 they require all shredders to produce no larger than 5mm squares. Strips are old school. 


    This movie somewhat surprised me tbh. I think the bar is set incredibly low for war movies set during the Obama era, but comparatively this movie does at least a decent job of making it clear the bad guys here are…

    The shot of the fucking crumbs on his lap from the very beginning cemented for me that this was something else. A movie defined by almost no dialogue contains my favorite scene of pure dialogue I’ve ever seen. This is a really hard watch, it’s a very necessary watch I think. It’s not only incredibly important subject matter, but I think should be the standard for the type of sincerity and severity required to depict stories of this nature. It got to me.
