United 93

Post by Mike »

This is a film / pseudo documentary about September 11, 2001. The story follows the confusion created by two planes being crashed into the World Trade Centre and another being flown into the Pentagon. The Final plane United 93 centres on the passengers trying to overpower the hijackers and save the day.

The painful thing about this film is the inevitability of the story, you know what is going to happen and the pre-determinism makes the film sorrowful from the beginning.

I would say it is good to remember this event and the film managed to convey the chaos in a very good manner which is respectful of the people who died.
