Review

it’s true what they say – 9/11 did change the world, so much so that oliver stone is a softball director with an apparent penchant for fluff and hero-making bullshit. i expected this movie to be crap (that’s why i snuck in, rather than paying to see it), but i didn’t expect it to be this kind of crap. the guy who directed platoon and jfk, after all, couldn’t make a film glorifying the new vietnam or not even hinting at the possible conspiracy behind 9/11, could he? well he did. the movie is trite, the acting is strained at best and this film is hardly worth reviewing.
