Review of United 93 (2006) by Buggy B — 15 Jan 2014

Wow, intense docudrama style movie with very little scripted dialogue. What I mean is this didn't feel like actors reading lines, you just watch events unfold through the eyes of people going about their normal day which for some included catching the ill fated United flight 93. Its a very fly on the wall type feeling as we also watch air traffic control try to deal with the ensuing chaos, the military (OTIS) and the young terrorists. A couple moments stand out; as flight 93's doors are sealed for the flight, clicking into place my breathe caught because we know the outcome of everyone on board and of course as the passengers band together and storm the cockpit with the plane plummeting down. I have my own views on what actually happened there (which I won't get into) but to me they were verified when the movie felt the need to reiterate that no fighter jets were nearby and that the president never gave the ok. Doesn't matter in this case, I still enjoyed the story. 10.13 (2).

"One chapter in the harrowing story of Sept 11, 2001 is replayed in this intense docudrama that re-creates the events leading up to the crash of United airlines Flight 93 after it was commandeered by terrorists.".
