Waste of time. Save your money!!!

Rating: 3/10 (12 August 2006)

This movie is not your typical Oliver Stone movie. Its actually a little better than his average movie. However its boring and misses so many aspects of what we all think of when we recapture 9/11 events. We didn't even see a plane crash or the building come down. The anticipation of those types of events make us emotional and is always good for film. Most of the scenes were boring and I actually fell asleep. The name of the movie doesn't deserve to be called World trade center. Instead it should have been called "Nicolas Cage trapped under the rubble." Those events were inspiring and I feel for the trapped people - however there are so many things that were missed. It seemed as if they tried to twist the events around and make it so there was some positive outcomes on 9/11. Well if you had no clue what had happened on 9/11 and saw this movie, you wouldve said "Thats not so bad, and there was somewhat of a happy ending." But thats not the case. There was absolutely nothing good about 9/11. There was tons of tragic moments and frightened people worldwide. This film failed to let viewers understand the impact and the severeness of how significant 9/11 events were. Oliver Stone is an amateur. He has not made one good movie ever. Totally overrated. Platoon was OK but nothing worthy of an Oscar. I was extremely disappointed with this Trade center movie because the perspective was too narrow. I think of the trapped officers as heroes - but guess what, they survived. What about the fallen ones? I think they deserve more recognition.
