United 93
I managed to get hold of a copy of United 93 the other day, the story about 9/11 and it's definitely a tearjerker but it makes the terrorists look really evil. All they show are the terrorists being very nervous, killing passengers
without thinking and praying all the time. Very bad image for Islam I think...
anyway, I shouldn't be saying much about such things, it's way out of my league....
The movie's styled like a narrative where there are no central characters, and there's even an Asian guy (looks Malaysian I think) who just sits there, eats all the in flight meals and says nothing throughout the whole film!
But anyway, the movie makes you feel that you're really in that plane throughout the whole movie, except for the parts where they were showing how kelam-kabut the control tower, FAA, NORAD are and also a reference to the non-availability of the President and the Vice-President's reluctance to assume command of the situation on that day.
I watched this movie a while ago, nothing great. Felt the ending was modified - conspiracy - plane was shot down by Americans. Too much American hero-worshipping stuff.
