Stone Disappoints Us

Rating: 1/10 (13 August 2006)

Wow. Just saw the film on Friday. Was gonna do one hell of a writeup, here. However, I just read the review of a Mr. Grey Sphinx here. Grey, you have saved me a lot of typing. I could NOT agree with your review more. You pretty much took the words, right out of my mouth.
I've always liked Oliver Stone films. However, I don't know what he was thinking when he made this mess. What is Mr. Stone afraid of? Is he afraid of offending terrorists? Does he want to help people FORGET the worst tragedy on U.S. soil, since Pearl Harbor??? That's exactly what he's done. Why didn't he show the world what REALLY happened on that horrible day.
In my opinion, this film will only help people forget the events even more. There's nothing else I can say, that Mr. Sphinx hasn't already said. Stone had a chance to make a masterpiece, and he BLEW IT.
1/10.
