I thought it was realistic because it was what really happened and not overdone.

In a film like this, where we already know the outcome, it takes some effort to keep the suspense level high. Director Roger Donaldson does this by showcasing the petty politics that happens in such tense situations and the back-door deals that have to be made (sometimes at the cost of people's lives) to appease a few egos.

Provides a glimpse into the world of "Superpower politics" and just how fragile they can be. Interesting, and a good story.

I can't believe how many positive comments there are about this unrealistic film. This film used 30 year old information, thus a complete failure of historical accuracy. There has been so much new information that has been declassified over the years and I wish Hollywood would have used it to educate the public instead of portraying a cheap ''patriotic'' thriller.

Excellent!, It is a very capturing film, with good players that keep well the tension of the audience during the crisis of the US'conflict with Cuba during Kennedy's period. Kevin Costner plays a phenomenal role as a right hand of the president and it's presence becomes very influencial and even crucial on the forthcoming events.

This movie brings the Cuban Missile Crisis to "life" in a way that those of us who didn't live through that time in history could not have otherwise imagined. The movie hit me on a profound emotional level as I realized the burden placed upon these men and the weight of their decisions and actions.

Brillant, movie makers watch this, you dont need mindless action or a huge budget to produce a great film, although you know what happens in the end its shocking to see how close we really came. This is a fine exmaple of a film.

I think that 13 Days was a very accurate movie. It was full of emotion and suspence. It made you feel like you are there and it is really happening. I loved it and would recommend it. I loved it so much I am doing a paper on it for my college history class.

Interesting movie, although I can't say that it kept me on the "seat of my chair" as expected. The co-stars did a great acting job.

An edge of the seat kind of film. As the tension builds in the film, so does the tension in your own body.

This was an excellent movie. I was a very young girl when this happened and I remember being afraid to go outside for recess at school. Good viewing for all ages. Kevin Costner was great in this role.

Bruce Greenwood was great in this movie. However, in true Kevin Costner fashion this movie is much too long. I really don't see the point of spending a few seconds filming a door closing shut. It gave an interesting depiction of the Cuban missle crisis but I would have rated this movie much higher had it been shorter.

I would have to say that this movie is one of the most realistic portrayals of American history that I have ever laid my eyes on. For those of you that are expecting big Hollywood showmanship, you won't find it here. If it is flash and glitter you are looking for, you won't find that here either. What you will find however, is a movie that couldn't come any closer to repeating history unless history actually hit the re-play button. Kevin Costner and Bruce Greenwood give, in my opinion, an Oscar winning performance. The cinematography and the script are outstanding. Hold on to your amazement people, this is definitely a winner.
