Dry And Slow

Rating: 5/10 (21 February 2013)

The very topic is very thrilling and interesting. WE all were deeply shocked by those terrorist attacks in New York and DC, and we all watched frozen in horror those blood-chilling moments of crashes.The movie about United 93 could prove a real masterpiece. It is OK but still falls short of its goals. I understand that Mr. Greengrass wanted to make the whole event as authentic as possible, but in reality we needed up with extremely dry, slow, dull and boring footage of almost second-per-second depiction of events. OK, but this is a documentary film, right? I was very bored after 20 or 30 minutes and nearly made myself watch it till the end. I agree, life is not an excitement as it is shown in blockbusters, granted. But then, the filmmakers could better shoot a very accurate documentary and then get a better result. Here, we see a very bleak effort with some moments of greatness, but still are not convinced
