This is a good film its a couple of notches up from a disaster movie, but given the subject matter it does entertain. People looking for answers or something profound in this will be disappointed. try and see 9.11 which was the documentry movie shot at the time of the disaster. This movie is a piece of bubblegum that does not aim to say much, it wants to entertain and it does, nic cage is as usual fantastic and lifts his charactor off the page. a well shot movie with great actors that does what it says on the box. its not made to give answers or be political agian try anything that michael moore has produced. tell me why do film boffins and stuck up phoney intellectuals always have to knock films like this. Stick 2 fingers up at them and see the film and enjoy.

Oliver Stone has outdone himself. I said that Nixon was the worst film he had ever made, but this dull, sloppy, boring mess of a fillm takes the cake as the worst dog of a film he has ever made. You learn nothing about the characters, and little else about what was really happening on that day in New York. What you do get instead is something that plays like a bad disaster telemovie about two men tapped in rubble. And the script is so bad it reduced the audience I watched this with to unintentional laughter on two occasions. The heroes and memory of the people who died on September 11 deseve a better film than this waste of time. United 93 was a very good analysis of that event, and this film is not in its league at all. Hopefully, a good movie about what happened at the World Trade Center will be made one day, but this is not it.

Split between Cage and his colleagues trapped under some rubble, and crying wives - this is a thankfully restrained account of the last two survivors pulled from what was left of the World Trade Center on 11th September. This is Stone at his most mainstream, although we should be thankful someone so level-headed was chosen to direct this movie, or we could have been looking at somthing to rival 'Pearl Harbour' in terms of awfulness.
