Shoot just to live better

No politics, no justice, no right or wrong, a bunch of mercenaries, shooting just to survive, that's all.
Michael Bay no longer fiddles with Transformers, but in the form of a pseudo-documentary, restores the battle in Benghazi at the beginning, with tension and excitement, as well as the test of family love and friendship and a little bit of politics. It turned out to be a pretty good movie.
The main characters are all bearded. Actually, the recognition is a bit low. Sorry for being a little blind, and it is completely unclear when fighting. For me, who is a little obsessive-compulsive disorder, this is really uncomfortable. As for the villain, my God, it's even more confusing. Fortunately, they are all Muslims, so they won't be confused with the protagonist.
Several retired special forces, for various reasons, left their relatives, left their homes, and came to distant Libya to become security personnel in secret bases. Libya, which overthrew Gaddafi, has not become the paradise people imagined, with the proliferation of guns, economic depression, and frequent chaos. The new US ambassador was attacked by a mob and killed in hiding. The special forces who could not be rescued set up defenses at their own bases, both for their duty and for survival, and fought a fierce battle with a group of armed thugs. Unfortunately, the battle was brutal...
Michael Bay is worthy of being a great director, even a small-scale shootout was also filmed Domineering, bullets are flying all over the sky, and it can also capture a full sense of tragic and solemnity, and I have to express my admiration.
The war between the two sides is quite real. The well-trained U.S. soldiers equipped with night vision goggles have reasonable tactical division of labor, advanced equipment, and accurate marksmanship, which can effectively predict the battlefield situation. If not for the threat of heavy weapons, it can be said to be lighthearted. As for the Libyan armed men, they ran around like headless flies without any cooperation at all, a typical rabble. So Michael Bay uses a long shot to make the gunfire more gorgeous and more ornamental.
Politics aside, it's pretty cool.

    The direct climax of the two offensives has a sense of the black eagle falling

    Watching the scene of Libyan militants attacking the consulate one after another, an inappropriate association suddenly popped up. During the Anti-Japanese War, there were also many guerrillas who rushed to the Japanese army's bunker like this. They fell like wheat. Last time, the Japanese army probably regarded these guerrillas as terrorists.
