Rating: 3/10 (6 December 2007)

6.5 the average? Please! This was a poor movie from beginning to end. Stone does have talent, but it attenuates by the year. And the drama queen Cage couldn't have been much worse. But this movie was merely meant to take advantage of peoples' emotions about a tragic event. It offered no insight and nothing but a lot of weeping and groaning. It was like watching CNN (for over 2 hours) asking someone whose baby has just been run over by a Mack truck, "Do you think we should ban big trucks from the road?" Americans have to stop wallowing in self pity and move on. Yes, it was tragic. So are the thousands of lost their lives in Iraq for absolutely no reason other than the lies told to us by this duplicitous govt. (more American lives wasted there than WTC and over 50,000 Iraqi lives.) Truly tragic.
