no suspense, not dramatic enough

Rating: 3/10 (14 September 2007)

This story just did not feel dramatic enough to really draw the viewer in. You already know what will happen before hand, but that doesn't make for a bad movie. United 93 was a good movie based on the 9/11 attacks that was good and suspenseful. But this film was no where near as good. The problem is most of the film has the 2 main characters under rubble with not much to do. A lot of scenes show the 2 wives worrying and hoping to get that call that their husbands are OK. There is only so much you can see of that before it starts to get boring. We get the fact that the wives are worried and waiting. It just makes for a boring movie.
Overall, I don't think this story was interesting enough to be made into a feature film.
FINAL VERDICT: Drab story. Not suspenseful enough. Watch United 93 to see a good movie centered around the 9/11 attacks.
