United 93?  Every American should see this movie, have you?

I have seen United 93.  If you do not want to see it, that is fine, but don't knock it before you see it.  United 93 is an amazing tribute to the memories of these heroes on flight 93.  And yes, they portray them just that way, heroic.  These passengers saved hundreds, if not thousands of lives and our Nations Capitol!  10% of the opening weekend gross is pledged to go to the United 93 memorial.  That is over 1 million dollars.  Also, they contacted all of the family members of the victims of United 93 who approved of its making.  If the families can accept the movie, why can't we?  \nJerry Bingham's son, Mark, died on United Flight 93.  He has been quoted by the Sun-Sentinel in Florida that he wants people to watch this movie.  Yes, it is hard to watch, and he, like so many others, cried during the movie.  But he also says that he exhaled a sigh of relief, knowing that the filmmakers have honored their memory.\nThis movie is not flashy with big Hollywood names and special effects.  Several FAA and Military personnel working on 9/11 played themselves in the movie.     \nWe cannot ignore the attacks of 9/11.  What, if we don't talk about it, it never happened?  Will that make the pain go away? NO!  Put it out there, in a RESPECTFUL way, the way this film did, and begin to heal that way.\nThe timing is NOT too soon.  In fact, when most people think of 9/11, they think of the two planes that went into the towers.  United 93 has never gotten the recognition it deserved, and perhaps memories of this flight were even beginning to fade a little.  This movie refreshes our memories and honors theirs.   \n  I will tell you the movie I AM very skeptical of, and that is one due out sometime this year about the World Trade Center. Nick Cage is in that one.

Yes it is.  It not only is a great action flick, but it also shows the stupidity of the clinton administration.  That movie is a true story on how Clinton abandoned our troops and refused to reinforce to save their lives.  And you think Bush is a killer!?!?!?  No wonder terrorists think we are a pushover country!  With presidents like Clinton, we don't even protect our own!

Once again, England proves that they are the kings of comedy. \nNot since Mr. Bean, Monty Python, Benny Hill, Peter Sellers, Beyond the Fringe, etc., has such a phenomenon come from God's own angellic isle of amusement...\nYes, this movie is genius. Sacha Cohen is now into Andy Kaufman territory. As a contemporary form of comedy, it's simply the most brilliant satire since South Park first aired. He has dragged out all the ugly stereotypes, all of America's ignorance towards the rest of the world, and put it together through the character of a well intentioned foreign man - from a country that most Americans don't even know exists. It is not so much a comedy about foreigners (although Borat's hometown tour is hilarious), as it is about what kind of reaction Americans have to foreigners today. This movie is so important and so ridiculously true to exposing the ugly underbelly of America, at a time when it needs it more than anything. Bonafide satire, that's true and hilariously painful to watch and laugh at...American ignorance as fodder for comedy...always purist, and taken to the end by Borat. We are laughing at both Borat and Americans - there's only one difference - Sacha Baron Cohen is acting. \nA great success!

'Akeelah and the Bee' with Laurence Fishburn, Angela Basset and a newcomer, KiKi Brown(?). I heard that was a good movie as well as 'United 93'. The last one was about what happened to the passengers during September 11th when the passengers found out what happened to the Trade Centers and, slowly, realized that their plane was going to go hit the Pentagon and then they decided not to let that happen. Very emotional......it makes all those passengers and crew members come off as heroes. It really shows them and their families respect for all that they did and for all of what happened on that day. Very poignant.

Haven't you ever seen the movie? It is AWESOME! I think you should see it! I can't tell you or it would ruin it for you when you watch it!   HOPE IT'S NOT DUE TOMORROW!

I found it shocking, disturbing and compelling. They say you know the truth when you here it; well it all seems to ring true. Some have mentioned it as propeganda. No. Its a dangerous documentary that has used facts, COMMON SENSE and many many eye witnesses and footage. I for one found it quite disconcerting to know that it was a set-up. Look at what the Bush administration has used it to aid? Afganistan and Iraq, the deaths of thousands, more genuine terrorism including in  countries that have backed America in this phoney 'war upon terrorism'. Its sickening to actually see the evidence that we've been lied to and are still being lied to. Those who cannot see this from this documentary, good luck to you. You are so engrossed in the system and the illusions that the govenment continually dish out that you deserve sympathy. Just think of this; consider the dangers that those who put this documentary could be in and have been risking by making it. This is accusing the government, the fat-cats and the organisations such as the FBI in a very big and dangerous way. They're exposing a most ugly conspiracy that is endangering. I'm just amazed that this documentary is obtainable.\n\nGood luck everyone.

Have I ever seen a punk? I grew up in the 70's! Cut my teeth on Fear, Circle Jerks, DK, & Black Flag. This crap today is anything but punk. Rent the movie "The Decline of the Western Civilization" for great shots of Punks & even greater music.

I liked that movie allot. It made me think about our crappy government. I know there are some honest, hardworking people in our gov. but they are few and far between. We (the people) have given the gov so much power over us. One day we will have no power to change government and we will be powerless to help ourselves. We have been giving the gov. more power for decades and it is happening so quietly that people don't realize it is happening. They start passing these little laws that do little things, this paves the way for the substantial laws that really give them more control in the future. We wont be able to fight against these laws because of the safe guards they have put in or are putting in today! Sorry to rant and rave but is everyone blind to this!!

Just watched the movie myself. I was already supportive of the war, but even more so now. I really don't think they get it at all! Not even a little bit. I think they are so consumed with hatred for Bush and the republicans that they can't see what is obvious. We are in serious trouble if they take over control of our country. They don't understand the evil that is out there....just waiting.....

Yes!!!!  That movie was genius, and very different than some of the other movies that are playing.  While it is in Russian,  sorry subtitles, the movie is not your typical forgein film.  It does keep you intersted throughout, and takes you through many emotions without being dry.  Very action packed, and has a very awesome message.  Enjoy this film!!!!!!!!

I watched it. It is such a good movie with good meaning. It gave me insight to the lives of firefighters and the lives of firefighters's families. I began to see them as so much more. I've always appreciated firefighters, but I felt that I respected and appreciated them more after I watched Ladder 49. It is an awesome movie everyone should see. Thank you firefighters for your effort, bravery, and courage, for your dedication to save people every day.

I've seen it many times-its actually an issue that we discuss in school a lot. Many people I know are convinved that the entire thing was a gov. conspiracy. As believable as the movie is, I still can't imagine anyone would stoop so low. What a dilemma.

I saw the movie last night and it is one of the best movies I have seen in a long time. I totally agree with you.  I remember the day he died well and gave it 4 out of 4 stars.  My brother who was 3 gave it 4/4 and my 16 year old nephew gave it 3/4.  Do yourself a favor and see the movie. I am also shocked by the vehemence and hatred expressed for people once revered and loved. Society has declined.\n\nJFK and particularly RFK had a profound effect on my life. I was a teenager when Bobby Kennedy was killed. At age ten, I, on my own, went to JFK headquarters and got and passed out campaign fliers. His book, Profiles in courage, influenced deeply the rearing of my children. I taught them to always have the moral courage to stand up for what they believed even if they \nwere the only one or were ostracized. To stand up for good and the underdog, to be non conformist and dare to be different, I taught them buy having the courage to speak up boldly even if they were alone, they might give someone else who feels the same way but who is too scared or shy to speak up the courage to speak up too.\n\nI wanted to go into politics and read thick political books like "American Democracy in World Prospective" while peers read romance novels. (I got married instead subsequently.) But it was Bobby who captured my heart and soul. I memorized many of his speeches and some I still use and recall the words though it has been nearly 40 years ago.  He so inspired me with his deeds and his words. He wrote me a letter. \n\nConcerning the movie, although I was disappointed there was not more focus on his life and footage at points during the movie, in the end, the film triumphed tying it all together.  The film maintained my interests and had some great performances. But it is the emotions which it wrought within me at the end which cause me to give it a 10 and call it one of the best movies \nI have seen recently.  \n\nI was very surprised at the extreme emotions that cursed through me, particularly at the end of the film. First the anticipation of what was coming caused me to tense up. Watching that final night play out like I saw so many years ago brought me right back to the moment it really happened. \n\nI could not stop crying.  Indeed, I kept putting my face in my hands and really crying hard. I had to stifle back sobs that threatened to escape and embarrass me.  I could not stop wiping the tears so it brought me back to that moment when America saw its 3rd assassination. Those words that so inspired and called us forth to be a compassionate, just, peaceful nation that strived to mends bridges and really look at how we spent our limited time and what we might accomplish would never again be there to guide and remind us of what a better world we might have.  With him, those hopes seemed to die. It wasn't long when the wealthy elite began to escalate destruction of our country. \n\nBoth JFK and RFK had the unique ability to really make us look at ourselves and call forth the best within ourselves. When we lost these leaders of insight, intelligence, and empathy, we as a country lost a lot..our very souls and trust. It was a time in history of men of courage, idealism, and good mores that soon fled from all but those who still recall that "each time a man stands up for an ideal, acts to improve the lot of others and strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope and that ripple \ncrossing a million centers of energy and daring can build a wall that can sweep away the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance" and those who are mindful that "few will have the greatness to bend history itself but each of us can work to change a small portions of history and within those acts will be written the history of this generation." \n\n"It is from numberless, diverse acts of courage", he said. I didn't want to leave the theatre, but to reflect on all I was feeling. I continued to cry for

This Movie is amazing.\n\nI first watched it in 1996 in a D.C. theatre. \n\nI realy suggest everyone watch it, it's interesting that you liked it too. \n\nI've looked it up though and it's "not in stock".\n\nStrange.
