Watch something else. There are very few redeeming qualities to this film.
View MoreAll that we are seeing on the screen is happening with real people, real action sequences in the background, forcing the eye to watch as if we were there.
View MoreThe movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.
View MoreExactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
View MoreThis film seems to be unfairly regarded as the poor relation, just because it was made for TV. If so, it's snobbery. Flight 93 focuses much more on the humanity of the event, on the passengers and their families. This gives us the chance to empathize with them and feel for them as they meet their fate.United 93 focuses more on the technical aspects. It fails to distinguish the passengers from each other and does not name them. I know this was done at the request of the families, so as not to single anyone out (not that this stopped the film makers from unjustly stigmatizing the German passenger as a wimp!).I admit that Flight 93 perhaps goes too far in its depiction of endless phone calls. We wondered when the passengers were ever going to find time to take on the hijackers!
View MoreThink about this sentence next time you watch it this shitty movie you'll lol forever.Enough with the god damn babies and unsubtle and shameless appeal to emotion. It's disgusting.First time it starts off as hatred for the terrorists.Second time it's disapproval of the direction style. Third time it's hatred for writers and directors. Fourth time you end up hating Hollywood.By the 15th time you've already signed up for al qaeda and your on your way to a flag burning.I really have nothing more to say but I'm going to type this because IMDb has this weird 10 line minimum so here goes.Religion {all major ones) have caused the large large majority of wars and hatred thought history.Christianity, Islam, Judaism are the most destructive organization of people in the history of man kind.
View MoreFlight 93 (2006) *** 1/2 (out of 4) A&E produced TV flick beat United 93 to be the first film to take on the subject but I'm really not sure which went into production first but I have to wonder how one company didn't sue the other. Both film (of course) take on the same subject but I was a little shocked at how close both screenplays were in the way the story was presented. The camera work was pretty much the same and both films center on certain aspects of the story and some of the scenes seem to have been filmed the same way. With that out of the way, I think this story is one of the greatest to ever deal with a group of heroes and I think you'd have to be unhuman for the story to grab you. This film does a very good job at telling the story even though it never reaches the brilliant level of United 93. This film here goes for more of an emotional punch as a lot of the film centers on the passengers calling home to their loved ones. One of the most emotional scenes is where one of the passengers comes to peace with the fact that he's going to die so he might as well try and save others on the ground. The performances are all very good, although some of the folks playing the family members go a little over the top.
View MoreI am currently watching this film as we speak. It has a very trivial plot line. The whole film involves 4 terrorists, who look like fashion models sitting in the cockpit of the plane with Ninja Turtle like scarfs on their foreheads. The whole film is nothing but the victims calling their families over and over. Nothing more. It is very poorly constructed and directed. I am going to view the film version and then formulate an opinion. I just didn't enjoy this film very much. The filming quality even is mediocre because it looks like it was shot in the 1980s. It confused my husband and myself into believing that this was the actual film version. It is not. I did not like how they made it seem like they were using cell phones in mid-air. Everyone knows that this is not at all possible.
