When you don't have the MSM marketing the movie for you like F911, I suppose you can't pull in the big bucks.

It didnt do too bad, it'll pick up today and have good legs Im sure (on word-of-mouth). But it is a bit of a disappointment; this should be a 100 million dollar movie, and it probably wont make much over 50. This should be a lesson to people that always complain about "Hollyood junk", thats what people want. Rv and 'Stick it' are crap movies, but they will likely both beat United 93.

One problem is the R rating. That keeps alot of teens out of the theater who may want to see it. I think theyre too strict with enforcement of the ratings anyhow, this movie is a good example of why they should lighten up. Teens should see this movie.

I'm not advocating the movie review website...Rotten Tomatoes...(sometimes they get it right, sometimes they don't)

..but I usually go there to check out the box office numbers and reviews for the weekend...

..GO look at the splendid & generous reviews they've given United 93!!!

See this movie before the PC/Liberal Left/Democrats/Socialists have it edited and cut.

I saw the movie last night. It was great, all FReepers should go see it ASAP.

Look at the numbers, it had the highest per screen. It opened in fewer than the others.

I saw it on Friday and it was a fantastic movie - sort of a "Just the facts, ma'am" type of movie.

I read somewhere that the movie lasts the same lenght as the actual flight.

I was going to start a thread about this.

What does this 3rd place opening mean?

How can we still remember Pearl Harbor 60+ years ago, but a movie about the worst civilian attach on America five years later can't take the number one position.

I just don't understand

I was so surprised to see a movie out of hollywood where Americans were proud to be Americans, and the enemy is not ambiguious.

I laughed and cried, though I imagine some of the other watchers were surprised at the laughing.

I laughed when the dean clone finally locked himself in the bathroom to call 911. Typical liberal response to a real world problem.

I laughed when the hitlary clone was pummeled by the other patriots on the flight, that was classic.

I cheered the passengers when they stormed the cockpit, I was so proud to know that Americans can do attitude will come forth if you allow it.

Which brings up a good point, if the information about the towers was spread to all planes that day, the disaster would have been much less.

The inept response of the governmental agency's should have been on trial from day one, guess we can keep waiting.

The other striking point was when the terrorists were praying to their pig god, the American's were praying to the god of their choice.... not the one the government told them to.

I'm not a fan of organized religion, but this one fact about the herd mentality of the muslim religion should be the one lesson of that day to all Americans. The entire basis of the muslim religion is based on a inferiority complex. I am surprised they are even allowed to use fire over there. This goes for so called 'moderate' muslims too. I'm still waiting for 'moderate' muslim leaders to denounce the violence to us heathens that don't support the mullahs.

Every American should go see this movie

"[T]he acclaimed Sept. 11 drama "United 93" debuted with $11.6 million. [Second place when all the numbers where in]

"Married couples accounted for just over half the "United 93" audience, and 71 percent of viewers were 30 and older, according to Universal.

"With painstaking authenticity, "United 93" recounts the horrific end of passengers who fought back against their hijackers aboard one of the commandeered planes, which crashed in rural Pennsylvania. "
