    Storyline

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The city of New York absolutely prohibited the recreation of 9/11 destruction or chaos on location. The filmmakers were not even allowed to film actors looking upward toward where the towers would be. The drive of the officers up to the site was permitted to be filmed, but all scenes depicting events at or near the WTC were filmed in Los Angeles.
    • Goofs
      (at around 35 mins) There is a brief scene set in Hong Kong, where locals are stunned by what they see happening in New York on TV. The background clearly shows that it is daytime. However, when the 9/11 events occurred, it was night time in Hong Kong.

    Don't be so uptight...
    Some people have commented that this movie didn't accurately depict 9/11 and have complained that Oliver Stone didn't portray the events or that he milked us for emotion.

    I disagree. I watched Michael Pena and Nicolas Cage depict two PAPD officers - Ofc. Jimeno and Sgt. McClauglin but I couldn't help but picture every officer or person involved directly in the horror of that day. There are plenty of documentaries on the subject...and every year on 9/11, they give you a blow-by-blow of the events. This was a movie, that showed what two men - and what their friends/family/departments went through and I thought of and felt for everyone through their story.

    From what I've read...and from the commentaries in the film, it is factual for their story and I think it's just a coincidence that it just HAPPENED to be good enough for a Hollywood story. I mean - I appreciate getting to hear their story.
