13 hours - The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4172430/
Poor description, but if you enjoyed (in any respect) films like Black Hawk Down or Lone Survivor you will love this. It will get slated for it's gloryfication of war, but I sat through it and enjoyed it. You can argue it is Political (Ie. The reason the 'secret soldiers are there for 13 hours) and that there is not much character development - or you can just sit back and enjoy a feast for your eyes that is filmed in typical Michael Bay fashion which means it's busy and atmospheric. Good solid 7 or 8 out of ten.
If you don't like War Films, or macho buddy films then steer well clear.
