      13 Hours--The Heroic Little Man in War

      "All the gods, all the heavens, all the hells are within you." The soundtrack and the rhythm of the pause are to make the audience think about why the hell they are fighting, why they are fighting so hard, and why the government behind the desperate people is still asking if the other party's security authority is enough to order a rescue.

      American thief shouting catch thief

      4 Americans died in Benghazi, and it was like the sky was falling to the Americans. Why don't they think about it, they messed up Libya, how many people died in Libya. Americans are everywhere claiming that they overthrew the tyranny of Gaddafi 40, which is pure nonsense, and Gaddafi has not always been a totalitarian rule. Besides, it's someone's internal affairs, can you control it? In fact, it is looking for an excuse to get rid of a country that doesn't listen to the command of the...

      Better than Operation Red Sea

      I watched 13 Hours of Crisis a few days after watching Operation Red Sea. Although I enjoyed watching "Operation Red Sea" for a few days, it is only an objective evaluation. This movie is better than "Operation Red Sea".

      In fact, whether you are watching "Wolf Warrior 2" or "Operation Red Sea", the most intuitive feeling after watching it is that the motherland is really strong, and the People's Liberation Army is really powerful.

      What's so good about "13 Hours of...

      Rubbish

      Logic error: Will the last reinforcements confront the Americans? The races are different, okay? Besides, there are American special forces in the car, okay? Damn, the crisis was resolved because of an inexplicable gesture? And a U.S. soldier would photograph a country's defense minister's chest and make threats? The minister also personally rescued people in English 666, so why do you need to translate when you need reinforcements? Identity is also drunk: the current chaos in the Middle East...

      Background of the film... off topic

      These mercenaries in the film, security fighters hired by the CIA, are very dedicated to their duties. No one in the family could understand why they had to die in such a strange place. But they are so conscientious and conscientious that the wall of the CIA headquarters also specially engraved two five-pointed stars on the two sacrificed non-staff. By the end of the movie, I was inevitably moved.

      The political purpose of the film seems to be an advertisement for a security company...

      Although Tututu at the back looked quite exciting, but the few waves of attack and defense seemed to be just simple repetitions, and it would be good to shorten it by twenty minutes and half an...

      I feel that selling copies is the top director of the main theme blockbuster in the United States. From "Pearl Harbor" to "13 Hours of Crisis", they all exude strong patriotic hormones. From an action movie standpoint, it feels like it lacks a real orgasm and isn't enjoyable enough. However, this adaptation should be an adaptation that is more faithful to real events, without too much...

      The contemporary version of "Seven Samurai", if the block explodes, it will be destroyed. . . It is worthy of the best sound effect, and the 5.1 channel is fully...

      The patriotic theme of selling copies dragged on a little longer. The tough guy guarded the position, from calm to weathered storms, quite "Black Hawk Down" feeling, the rhythm is not bad, and the battle scenes are hard...

    Behind the scenes gags

    The film is Michael Bay’s third film adapted from real events after Pearl Harbor (2001) and "Giving and Gain" (2013).
    Michael Bay originally planned to shoot with film, but the director of photography Dion Beebe wanted to use digital. In the end, due to the more night scenes in the film, the shooting on Sunday was tighter than that on Sunday, and Bei finally compromised.
    The first cut version of the movie is 240 minutes....

    Evaluation action

    Michael Bay is very restrained in'slow motion' and'sensational'. The war in the film is cruel, not romantic. This gives the film's characters and emotions a very credible foundation. As James Dale and Pablo Schreiber with veterans and family backgrounds, letting them fight terrorists seems very credible.  (Comment on "New York Daily News")
    Despite the lack of details and the sloppy dialogue, it is a well-made live action movie on the...
