10/10
Moving ensemble drama about the September 11th attack on New York City
21 June 2012
Beautiful and moving ensemble drama. Story line flows very seamlessly from one character to the next drawing you in and keeping your full attention. Story has "everyman" quality, representing how all walks of life were equally affected on 9/11 and how through devastation came unification, hope and a renewal of the American spirit. The length of the film also feels just right - not too long. There are also a lot of very strong performances in this film from unknown actors worth seeing if you are especially interested in character driven films. For such a low budget, the effects are also pretty impressive in depicting the destruction on that day without making it too morbid, but still depicting the horror of it. Recommend this one for sure!
