Flight 93 or United 93?
I got a chance to see both movies about the event that happened on the flight UNITED 93 on 9/11. There was a movie that aired on TV a couple weeks back called FLIGHT 93, and was playing the other day on A&E again. As you know by now that UNITED 93 was released to theaters this past weekend. To be honest I didn't like how the direction on UNITED 93 was done. Everything was poorly shot and I really wanted to throw up watching the movie because it was so poorly done, and could of been a great movie. I am happy the proceeds of the movie are going to the memorial of 9/11. I liked Flight 93 much better than United 93 because the cinematography was done much better. I know this might sound bad, but watching United 93 was like watching the Blair Witch Project. Everything was done like zoomed in, and the camera was going back and forth real fast. I don't know if they will make another movie about the heroes in the plane that stopped the terrorist from crashing into the White House, or the countries Capital but if they do, they should take their time!! I feel like the movie was rushed and could of been better. What do you guys think?

My view
After seeing the film, all I can say is, I guess I shouldn't be suprised.
Seems like as a people we've been reduced to watching too many movies, and televison. While the real problems of this world, just go on, unsolved.
Someone 2000 years ago, said to us, that if we don't learn how to forgive or learn how to co-exist, we will all end up dead on a street somewhere. Or in a place where our prayers are never answered. And he became the greatest martyer of all time.
As for the film itself:
One thing which stood out for me, was the fact that both the hijackers and the passengers were praying to God at the same time. Makes you really wonder doesn't it?
Whether or not there is someone in the universe who honestly cares.

Caught the tail end of Flight 93 (the TV one) last night. I really really hate to say it, but I was unimpressed. It didn't "get" to me the way 9/11 gets to other people. I guess mainly because I wasn't directly affected by it.
Still, the 15 minutes I saw of the TV movie was your standard tissue-box movie-of-the-week.
