United 93 is one of the most important films made in the last decade. The film follows the events of September 11, 2001, when United Flight 93 was hijacked and became part of the largest terrorist attack in American history. Director Paul Greengrass does as excellent job at delivering an intense and realistic depiction of events that brings the audience into the film. Additionally, Greengrass has reassembled a number of the actual people that were involved to reenact the events of that day. And, John Powell provides a brilliant score that's subtle and powerful; enhancing just the right moments. Based on a tragedy, United 93 honors the victims by portraying an exceptionally vivid and realistic account what happened.
You either like or hate shaky cam all you want, but never has it been use so effectively like "United 93". It's there for a reason to get the feeling that your every character on that plane, and I do mean everyone. I have no idea how Paul Greengrass dose it, but he manages to take a real tragic and crafted it so masterful that it truly captures the terror on that day.
And to all those who died on that day. You will never been forgotten.
That is one intense film to watch. Especially the hijack scenes in the airplane and the scenes where the passengers try to take the airplane back right at the end of the movie. These scenes are incredibly realistic and shocking.
I'm watching this film in 2018 for the first time but these unimaginable events of September 11, 2001 horrify me again everytime.
But talking about the film, I thought it was really done in a good way.
Facepalm....
This should be in the "Fantasy" genre!
