And furthermore....  how can any motion picture the Americans make ever be taken seriously... I mean come on.. U571 ? :roll:  Braveheart ? :roll:  Any mainstream film made in America or with mainly American money or influence is meant as fodder for the gullible childlike souls that live there... adventure films etc , yes, thrillers, action all fine but anything fact based... forget it.. they have no history of their own as such....so they steal others or just make it up.... :shock:
we just have to nurture the Americans until their nation reaches puberty :lol:  :twisted:

9-11 i wont forget but i wont be going to watch the film.
things need to read not over dramatised.

how about the concern for the fire fighters paremedics police officers who were there on the day there health both physically and mentaly

i'm with Tim so long the profit goes to help the familys then great if not then the film should be left well alone.

I may watch it out of interest (download probably), but it is only a film, a form of "entertainment".  Seeing how everyone died in the crash, how can it be based on "facts" ?  It's a flag-waving money spinner, but if it makes people feel good about themselves, then so be it.

I don't see why a film needed to be made about it to be honest.  Profiteering from it is just wrong, but then people make films about real life mass murderers and profit from it, so I guess it's the world we live in.

i dont think that there is no shame in showing of the heros in the film as far as im concernd the whole world should know about it and to help stop these terrorists then so be it ...its a damn site better than some other crap thats on the tv ..big brother has been banned from our house and any other reality shows along with most soaps dont realy leave much else to watch :( i dont agree with the film green street about football violence any one seen this is a disturbing film

beast5680:
The film apparently has the blessing of all the relatives of those on the flight and they have used people rather than actors who did or do the jobs etc shown such as air traffic controllers.
I would go and watch the film so i can make my own mind up as to whether it was distasteful or not
I think it needs to be remembered the americans as a nation are still in shock over 9/11, we over here have a much different view to terror attacks on our homeland having lived with the threat for a lot longer
True stories are never very interesting if told without a little dramatic licence but i hope they would have got the balance right on this one but i reserve judgement until i have seen it
