looks like a bucket of curdled sentimental cheese trying to cash in on a terrible day in history. makes me quite cross to be honest :mad:

i personally think "Flight 93" was a fantastic film, but this just looks and feels wrong. in any case, judge it for yourself.

I have seen an extended clip from the film, and it looked awful.

I'm not that keen on Nicholas Cage at the best of times, but he is almost laughable in this role. It just looks like he is hamming it up to me.

If the film is a true story from start to finish based on one firefighters experience that day then fair enough, but if they have taken artistic license with it then I think it's a bit sick really.

even if its a true story, i just dont think it should have been made... not in the cheesey way its comming across...

i am glad to know that its not just me who thought it looked and sounded bad. just another spurious hour and a half of patriotic bullpoo

I'm still sort of intregued (sp?) to see it in a way.

I hope they keep the dramatic music and slow motion sequences to a minimum or it will be just awful.

My God - I couldnt even finish watching the trailer - utter utter rubbish, utter cheese, I simply cant believe they can make films like this.

ah good, im glad that its definatly not me being overly sentimental and that this just looks like one of the worst films to have ever seen the light of day...
