United 93

Rating: 8/10 (22 January 2019)

On september 11, 2001 four planes were hijacked. This planes each had a different destination for example two of the planes that were hijacked hit the twin towers in New York. One of the planes that were hijacked which was United 93 didn't reach its destination. The movie United 93 is a drama, history, thriller movie. The director of this movie is Paul Greengrass. This movie came out in 2006 which is 5 years after the event happened. I give this film a rating of 8/10 because it was boring in the beginning but then got interesting and it is good way of learning what happened.
Firstly i would be examining the editing about this film. In this scene we see how they are focused on the passengers and terrorists. This was shown in the beginning when everything was fine to when they were about to crash the plane. In the beginning we see that they point the camera to the passengers when they are talking and then they point it at one of the terrorists as they are looking in one direction. We also see this when they are about to crash the plane. We see that they point the camera at the terrorists as they are praying in arabic and then they point it at the passengers as they are praying in english.
Next i would examine mise-en-scene in this film. In this scene we see a sign were it says 'God Bless America" and we also see the white house. At the beginning of the film we see that the saying "God Bless America" is hanged in a wall for everyone to see. This sign might had been placed in the beginning of the film to show that they only want good things to happen in America. We see the white house when the terrorist get control of the plane and place it on the wheel of the plane. This was probably placed their so we could know where they planned on landing since later on in the movie they didn't make it to their destination.
In my opinion this movie was overall good even though it was boring in the beginning. You should see this film if you like to see movies that are about history, drama, or thriller.
