The villain in the “Non Stop” movie is the 9/11 family member on board. And by the way, spoiler alert.

Do you honestly think that all of the thousands and thousands of 9/11 "family members" are mentally stable, conservative America-loving folks? Do you even think that a majority of them fit that qualification?

If they made the villain out to be a TEA Party type, then yes, I would be offended... but they didn't.

You people are getting yourselves all in a snit over nothing... and making yourselves sound pretty stupid in the process.

Wow. I can't believe I read that on FR. I really don't care what percentage of 9/11 families are stable or not stable.

I do not like, and will not accept, using those poor victims in this way. Please do not reply to me. No offense, but I really don't want to debate this with you.

This has got to be the dumbest rationalization for an agenda-driven plotline I have ever seen. If the movie were about a 9/11 family member hijacking aplane full of Muslims and killing them, I might agree with you. But the idea that a 9/11 family member would react to the death of one of his family members by doing EXACTLY the same thing that the killers did is so ludicrous that only a Hollywood imbecile would even conceive of it.

Here's a summary of the plotline you are defending: "I was so pissed off at the peoplee who killed my brother that I went out and killed my dad. That'll show those bastards. And if they don't do more to stop the deaths of my family members, I'll kill one of my cousins each 20 minutes until they do."
