Is Flight 93 lots better than the Flight 93 on A & E?
Yep
I didn't think it was "lots better," but rather different. Of course you see this one on a big screen, with a mega sound system - so the music and peripheral sounds are more important.
The A&E version focused much more on the families of the passengers and much less on ATC and the military. If the names of the characters were even mentioned in the new film, I didn't notice. You couldn't miss their names on A&E. The movies pretty much converged when it came to the action on-board Flight 93.
I think we need lots of these movies. One could be called Giuliani, another NYPD 911, and a third Towering Inferno II. People need to be remided often about what happened. Maybe someone will make another called Islamic Swine.
I'd probably go see that too.

Didn't see the A and E movie, but by all accounts, this one is much stronger. It puts you inside that plane. It will stay with you for days.
