What is everyones problem?

Rating: 10/10 (3 October 2006)

I went to see this film today not quite knowing what to expect after reading the other mixed reviews on this website.
I have to say that after seeing the film I think it is a story very well told. I was dreading having to see those aeroplanes crashing into the world trade centre but thank god, I didn't have to see it again! It was a gripping story of two Port Authority Police officers who were trapped under the rubble of the trade centre and their battle to survive until help came.
I think it was very well filmed and it truly portrayed what the families of these men would have gone through as well as the men themselves. It showed how the people came together in a bid to rescue others trapped.
I just cant see what everyones problem is with this film, I mean with reference to a review i read earlier; and i quote "Or even in the building, why would they keep so many people inside the burning trade centre; wouldn't they move them out of there" ....... the reason they kept so many people inside the world trade centre is because so many people were throwing themselves from the building that it was impossible to walk out of there and not get hit by a body.... that will be what all of those loud banging noises were!
With reference to another review i read earlier; and i quote " constant poor lighting and typically unchanging scenery make it unpleasant to watch " .....well I am sorry if the scenery was not as bright and colourful as you would have liked but they were TRAPPED UNDER TONS OF RUBBLE with barely any light - they were not in a green field with sun shining! I think this film shows that some good came out of this terrible tragedy in the end and although the film did not focus on the lives of all 2973 people killed on that day it did focus on two men who were willing to sacrifice their lives for those people... we should remember this too.
