Total Disappointment

Rating: 1/10 (3 November 2006)

I'm absolutely disappointed with this film. When you are about to see a film of this magnitude, you expect to see something that can touch your heart, and make you feel. The only thing that I fell with this movie was boredom. OK, yes... I'm from Argentina and I don't lived with my own flesh and blood the S-11, so I can't know how it feels for the Americans. I totally agree. And there's where the film fails! Oliver Stone directed the film for Americans, not for outsiders. There's no great FXs, and the script and the history it's completely boring for those who not live on the US. (Honestly, I don't know where'd go all those millions that cost this movie.)
The characters -and specially the marine- are crude imitations: They don't make you feel the pain, the despair, the fury, the hopeless and the grief that America lived in S-11 (unless, obviously, that you lived it).
And in my humble opinion, all the fault falls down on Oliver Stone. He failed on every key matter of the film.
