I Tried to Enjoy This Movie

Rating: 3/10 (17 January 2016)

A banal formula for same old American war propaganda films.
I tried to look past the propaganda and see what this movie was really trying to convey, but in the end it left me in a lapsing coma unable to distinguish what was and was not being foretold truthfully. Politics aside, the movie portrayed the Libyan people as savages, when in reality many of them helped save these soldiers. It seems that this movie completely disregards this fact, that and the increasingly tiresome propagandizing of mutilation, gore, and extreme patriotism. Violence that is effectuated throughout the film, start to finish. Of course this merely hides the terrible screenplay and vapid clichés but what more can you ask from Michael Bay? This is a full blown North Korean Propaganda film, except its American.
