Soliciting comments from other Freepers who saw it.

There were about 25 people at the showing I was at 1:50pm in the Atlanta suburbs-- half men, half women, all older than 35.

Everybody should support this movie, it is NOT too soon. It may be too LATE.

Bookmark for later. I intend to see it today or tomorrow.

[West Coast Conservative]

I'm planning on seeing it tonight.

[Enterprise]

Saw it today in Fresno. The violence and cruelty of the hijackers is eye opening. It's a good example of what our servicemembers are facing in Iraq. Everyone MUST see this movie. I am so proud of Todd Beamer and the other heroes.

Thanks for starting this. My 14-y/o Freeper Junior son really wants to see this. He stops whatever he's doing when the commercial for the movie comes on TV. He is truly determined to see this, even if it is intense. I think he should be ok. I'll post back when we've seen it.

Just got back from seeing it in Seattle, WA. It's pretty much of a documentary. I just started feeling tense from the beginning of the movie, and stayed that way until the end. A good, neutral, factual movie.

[My Favorite Headache]

Seeing it on Monday...busy all weekend.

[RushCrush]

I'm curious to hear what the DUmmies say about this movie, but I don't have enough self loathing to go over there and look.

SEE IT THIS WEEKEND BECAUSE 10% of the GROSS REVENUE WILL GO TO THE MEMEORIAL FUND, as per Neil Cavuto's show with Todd Beamer's father, David Beamer and US Rep. Shuster, (R) PA.

I'm going to see it on Sunday.

Just saw it. First, the tension waiting for the terrorists to rise up was really deep. Lots of tears, I could hear lots of sniffling. I loved it when the guys beat the crap out of the one terrorist.

I thought that the military looked pretty good, but wasn't given the authority it needed. At times the FAA looked good, at times, confused.

Overall, great movie but difficult to watch.

[Personal Responsibility]

I work in midtown Manhattan, I watched the 2nd plane hit the tower with my own eyes. 9/11 really hit me hard. Partly because of that, I was against making this movie because I thought it was too soon. I was worried about exploting still open wounds in the name of making a buck.

After having seen it I have to say that the film was excellent. It portrayed the people as, well, regular people. It portrayed the terrorists as normal as well, until they attacked. It portrays them as the animals they were. Tears were flowing when the passengers finally fought back. I wished I could have helped them. They were true heroes.


It was frustrating, stirring and completely emotionally draining. When it ended I sat in stunned silence for a good 5 minutes, as did most of the other 30 people in the crowd. All throughout I kept thinking "These animals are the same as the terrorists down in Gitmo to whom the Democrats are so adamant about giving rights." It made me angry to think about that.

To sum it up, this was the best movie I have seen in years. It should win every award there is to win.

I saw it this afternoon . HEAVY DUTY MOVIE !!!!!! I was'nt sure how I would handle it myself. Well , after two post movie martinis , to unwind and relax , It was a great movie , well worth the time to see . Still having visions about it , and goose- bumps.

[Dallas59]

Going to try to see it this weekend. First movie I've been too in 4 years.

[Oliver Optic]

Rob ... how bad was the profanity ... f-bombs everywhere or fairly mild?

I'm debating taking my older children

Comments from a FReeper whose father was on Flight 93.

Was at United 93 World Premier....Amazing!

You don't expect young people to watch this do you? No sex, no video highlight type action figures, no booze, no drugs, no fast car chases, no chasing chicks. The MSM will call it a propaganda film for the right. The left will assail it as B.S. all made up. The liberals will say, we cannot watch, it is too painful. The Arab terrorists will smile and say they love watching Americans die. Then leave the theater and go eat pizza at Papa John's.

[fnord]

not available around here

movie theater said it was in limited release because it is "controversial", but if it gets a good opening they may get it next week.

[oxcart]

I just got back from Flight 93...heads up, eat before you go because you will not be hungry after seeing it. You will also be very thirsty for some "adult beverages" afterward.

This is with out a doubt the 2nd most powerful movie I have seen, second only to the Passion of Christ!

I am still digesting what I have just watched.

Go see Flight 93 and then tell your friends and/or foes!

[katykelly]

We'll be seeing it tomorrow.
