World Trade Center-Film that Had to Be Made Succeeds ****

Rating: 10/10 (16 December 2006)

Outstanding Oliver Stone film dealing with the disaster of all times in the U.S.- September 11, 2001.
The film basically deals with 2 police officers who are trapped in the rubble of the Trade Center. It deals with their thoughts as they try to keep each other from falling into a permanent sleep. While this is going on, we witness what their wives and respective families are going through.
Nicolas Cage is excellent as the trapped police sergeant.
This is far more than the usual disaster film. It deals with the human spirit for survival at a time of national disaster. Well made, it deserves the highest rating.
