Even more realistic than Snakes on a Plane

Rating: 1/10 (4 October 2006)

Having had this movie recommended from various sources describing it as objective and touching, I decided to check it out for myself. Well, all I can say is that this is one of the most flawlessly executed pure propaganda movies I have ever seen.
The subtle shifts in mood via music, pacing and harsher language makes the manipulation you're subjected to almost impossible to catch on to if you're not used to analyzing films. But it's there. It's actually a good idea to pause the movie during the most intense moments, sit and relax and then press play again. You wont necessarily have noticed the shifts and manipulations before but once you press play they'll hit you like a sledgehammer with that patented Hollywood-finesse (You know it. It's the one ranging somewhere between a rabid dog and a rapist).
However some flaws were left in. While it was an ingenious (well...) move to use unknown actors with the audience as passive onlookers, it did leave one majer problem for me. Well over half the time, the actors looked as if they were concentrating all their skill and knowhow on not looking into the camera (and, therefore, looking every other possible way and ending up looking kinda desperate). It's the same way with cheap made-for-TV recontructions (...) but if that's your thing...
Anyways, the princible question regarding U93 is "why"? Why even make this movie? We know what happened and "we"'ve got a pretty good idea why it did. In any case the movie doesn't offer any new twist on it. It seems it's only objective is to fan a flame that the American media have already turned into a roaring inferno with their trademark skills of communication. So why would they make this film? Anyone?
Ya'll know what these little fellas mean?: $$$ If you don't, look it up. They're pretty big in Hollywood.
I should add to anyone that agrees with me: Relax, it's just a movie and it can't harm you.
And to anyone that disagrees: Relax, it's just a review and it can't harm you. Btw. most shrinks would argue that the best way to cope with a trauma isn't to relive it via a moviescreen. But what do they know, right?
