12 Strong

Movie 🎥 Review: "12 Strong".  Critics gave it a 52%, users an 68%.

This movie is based on the true events of the first 12 special forces soldiers in Afghanistan immediately after the bombing of the world trade center. It chronicles their mission in detail along with the overwhelming odds in fighting the Taliban.

Full disclosure here........it is a full blown masculine testosterone war movie with all the bells and whistles that go with it. It gives you the back stories of the soldiers in the first 1/4 (running time is 130 mins) of the movie then you are thrusted into the fierce battles that pursue for the next 23 days as these 12 fought on the ground with our allies.

12 Strong was a great way to honor our American hero's whose courage has not gone unnoticed.

The ending credits summarize what they did and where they are today. After reading that part of the credits the entire theater clapped out loud with several giving a standing ovation.

I loved it and enjoyed every minute of it!
