Michael Bay’s film are notorious for glorifying the military and showcasing the action in slow motion, but you won’t find any of his signature camera moves in his latest 13 HOURS: THE SECRET OF SOLDIERS OF BENGHAZI. Michael Bay says he didn't set out to make a “rah-rah” action film about these ex-military contractors, but he wanted to set the record straight at what really happened that fateful night on September 11, 2012 when four American’s died from an ambush by Islamic militants. He went to great lengths to bring accuracy to the action-drama by consulting with the brave survivors, the CIA and to stay truthful to the story told in the book, "13 Hours: The Inside Account of What Really Happened In Benghazi." He gives us insight into his meeting with the CIA and why it was important for the world to know what really happened.
