Just watched this at the cinemas and I have to say it's the
one of the worst films I've ever seen.

It was easy to predict. This is the kind of movie that
should be downloaded illegaly.

I didn't know it was about 9/11. You ruined it for me.

I thought it was an emotionally involving movie, regardless
of it being based on fact. I suppose I'm biased, but I do
like movies that give time to everday rigamarole and end
anticlimactically (no big explosions and stuff like that). I
also like movies by Gus Van Sant (and Jim Jarmusch) which do
about the same, but to the extreme.

Isn't it a little soon to re-open the wound? I guess
patriotism has slowly declined and we need a little boost.
Thank God that Nicholas Cage is starting in that last one.
Too bad they couldn't get Mel Gibson.

I don't see it as re-opening a wound, but an examination of
it.

Shhh...come here, real close...so I can whisper in your

You know, some Europeans that post on this board detest our

Don't you see? Both liberals and conservatives in the US
require - at least two - offerings from the Major Films
Studios, in order to "heal the nation" of the wounds
inflicted on the fabric of space-time itself that faithful
day. It's all very cathartic - and happening in mythological
time.

I don't get Ollie Stone... How can he produce Born Fourth of
July, JFK and now WTC? I have got to see the film, but I'm
afraid it'll be simply another "united we stand"
rollercoaster ride of emotions.

oliver stone is a blatant disinfo artist.

wreckage of that flight was found over 8 miles and rummy
even admitted the plane was shot down

there is loads of evidence that all three towers were
brought down by controlled demolition. just research the
topic yourself and draw your own conclusions.

larry silverstein (lease-holder of the towers) even admits
in a documentary that they control demolitioned WTC7.

i didnt realise it had been released, i saw a trailer for it
a few weeks ago though, it looked shite. looked to me like a
propaganda film showing off the americans as heros

After seeing it (some months ago), I have to say I think
it's a really good film.

It's almost genius, the way it weaves things back and forth,
without forcing the viewer into anybody's shoes.

As Mr. Brazil said, it compares to Gus van Sant's work. Look
at Elephant, for example: that's another "American tragedy"
turned into a good, understated film.

I know there's lots of conspiracy theories about 9/11
floating around, but we should separate political questions
about whether or not something is a valid piece of art.

Let's put it this way: even if the events it describes were
completely fiction, it would still be a really good film, at
least from my perspective.

I've never been one for the big 9/11 conspiracy theories
(you have to take into account how many people would have
been behind it. and someone would have blown the
whistle by now) but I doubt the movie really "accurate."

That said, it does pack an emotional punch. Far better than
"World Trade Center"
