World Trade Center (3 Stars)

I didn't enjoy the film. For long sections the picture is so dark that I found it difficult to follow what was happening. I'm sure that's realistic, but I don't watch films to experience exactly how little the characters could see. I much prefer the way films handled night scenes in the 1960's, with a blue tint that tells us it's night without actually making the screen almost black.

I was also disappointed that we never actually see the planes hit the towers. I understand the decision, but those are the images that immediately come to mind when you think of September 11th. Perhaps "World Trade Center" is too concerned with realism for my taste. I found it a rather dull experience.
