Laughable.... if it wasn't authentic

Laughable......... if it wasn't authentic. I sat in the cinema and realized, that I was laughing at something terrible. In my opinion, that's a big fault by the film, and not of me. I think that the story focuses too much on the fact, that a couple of men made it out of the ruins, and the lucky families who got their beloved ones back... You only hear some kind of a "voice over", about the people who died - and see a blackboard, or something, showing the death casualties. Oliver Stone takes a very subjective view, and by that he decreases the movie so much, that it becomes boring after a quarter of an hour (..after "the fall"). Therefore it sucks too see the lack of realism, when IT IS very real!
