Some people against the movie are probably just unhappy it was made in the first place. Wish they had shown a bit more of the Ambassador's death and recovery of his body but maybe it was just too disheartening for the screen. There are the 'bad' good guys - the incompetent CIA people especially the chief who gives the infamous and disputed 'Stand down' order. Initially, a little bit less back and forth between scenarios would have been better. It was chaotic but as long as you kept the 2 compounds separate in your mind it was okay. The prolonged gunfire and mortar attack on the annex was quite scary too. The journey under fire from the embassy to the annex was gripping. Liked Jon Krasinki's characters statement about dying over there at the end. Whatever your politics is, they were brave. There is just enough background with kids and wives shown to put a human element to the people.

Jon Krasinski and James Badge Dale, Max Martini and Dominic Fumusa are all good as the heroes. Maybe they shouldn't have had beards for the movie because it made them look alike.

It was a bit confusing at times distinguishing the main characters. The battles are well done and engaging, not over the top. The filming in Morocco and Malta captures a really on location feel. The attack is a part of history that deserves to be put on screen in as grand and well produced manner as can be.

As polarizing as this movie is just put your politics aside and watch it.
