Truly disappointed

Rating: 3/10 (7 October 2006)

Whatever happened to the critical Oliver Stone? I was expecting a movie that would make people think about what brought this tragedy upon people of the U.S., in the way Platoon or Born on the 4th of July questioned what the US was doing in Vietnam.
I also was expecting WTC would give us an opportunity to listen to voices that are not represented in mainstream media.
Instead, we got more of the same. It was more like an extended episode of 60 minutes.
Also, Stone shows an unusual revengeful facet that unsuccessfully attempts to provide arguments for the tragedies that the US has imposed to the world on the basis of a war against terror.
There are indeed traits in this movie that prove once again Stone's craftsmanship, but that is not the main motivation to go see one of his movies.
I would think that if it was still not time to present critical views of the 9/11 tragedy, then it was not time for a Stone movie.
