A compelling/riveting dramatization of the 2012 attack on the American diplomatic mission in Libya that resulted in the death of four Americans, including Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens, the movie is a driven entity of force vs politics - 45 minutes of setup and an eternity of relentless combat. Michael Bay, who is known for his awe inspiring theatrics provides a little zigzagging action-movie-style relief.The film brings amongst others the emotion of anger, fueled by duplicitous curvature of politics by the CIA. If your military or former it drives a nail into honoring American lives and sacrifice before political agendas. The film is well performed by all, great combat sequences and tactical overtones. This will keep your attention ALL the way through and leave you feeling proud, honored and a strong pit of emotion for those that were there.

The film accounts the real incidents related with the waves of terrorist attacks happened at an American diplomatic compound at Benghazi in 2012.
The first half of the film feels too slow paced and the build up towards the climatic incidents portrayed are not exciting either.
But, the bright side here is that this film would never exhaust you from beginning to the end eventhough, the running time is so unnecessarily expanded with a couple of unwanted confusing plot points which I wouldn't mention here.
But ,overall this film complies with its source material and genre and delivers the story in a compelling way..
This could have been a much better movie if it's not for those few plotholes and the running time which might exhaust you if you are not really into watching war films.

The first part I found a bit slow, but you can't take your eyes off the action once it all starts. An authentic take on the real time events of 11 September 2012 at Benghazi, Libya, a thumbs up to yet another Hollywood flick based on American presence in some war-ravaged part of the globe, almost all of them are good. 7/10

If you want an authentic review of this film, just read through the negative reviews here and they will provide you deeper insight into how much of a concocted propaganda piece this really is. Only appeals to the brainwashed and simple-minded folks.
