not a heroic film

Rating: Null/10 (17 August 2006)

I was expecting the movie to depict the actual tragic events, not the lives of two men trapped in rubble. So maybe I didn't like it because my expectations were different. However, am I alone in saying that the film didn't really put into perspective the events of sept. 11th? The lives that were highlighted were those of cops who hadn't even saved anyone. They were gathering equipment, and they were in the concourse between the two buildings, not even in the towers. I also thought that the film came a little early , it's so fresh in everyone's mind and I don't think it really showed the heartache and despair that America went through. Like I said, I expected something different, but I thought it could have been a lot different.
