HOLY CARP!!!
Wow. What a movie.

Something I noticed was at the start of the movie, everyone in the theatre was talking, laughing, and joking among themselves. When the movie ended, no one said a word. Everyone just got up, and left the theatre quietly, just thinking to themselves.

wow.

Would you suggest we see it?

I doubt Mark will go. I'll have to take my son Brian probably.

Maybe Sunday.

I would recommend it, too.

Honestly, I think every American should see it.

And honestly, I don't think every American can handle it.

It's intense.

Why, 89th?
I'm not disputing what you say, just curious.

I think it shows the type of enemy we are facing (human, vulnerable, but dangerous and blind), and the type of citizens we have (human, vulnerable, but brave and honorable).

It shows the best and worst of humanity, but really makes me proud to be an American.

It was also part of the worst attack on our country in almost 200 years, and shouldn't be forgotten.

But again, I'm not sure every American can handle it. It's intense.

Everyone should see it just to make sure their nerves are still a bit raw. We so fervently want to go back to our "normal" pre 9/11 existence, instead of being reminded that we're in a war.
