The controversial film that is unbearable--and unmissable. Read full review

USA TodayClaudia Puig

An unflinching, powerfully visceral and haunting portrait of the tragic events aboard one of the terrorist-commandeered flights on the fateful morning of Sept. 11, 2001. Read full review

The Hollywood ReporterKirk Honeycutt

Greengrass has made not only a thoroughly fact-checked film but a film that uncontrovertibly comes from the heart. Read full review

Entertainment WeeklyLisa Schwarzbaum

Pulling the bandage of sentiment cleanly away from oozing concepts like ''heroism'' and ''our nation's war on terror'' in the aftermath of recent wounds, here's a drama about the most politically charged crisis of our time that grants the dignity of autonomy to every soul involved. Read full review

Austin ChronicleMarjorie Baumgarten

Instead of using actors, Greengrass employed many of the actual air traffic controllers and military commanders who were on the ground that day. Also aiding his film's universality is Greengrass' use of little known actors in the central roles, preventing stardom from affecting our ideas about heroism and patriotism. Read full review

An absolutely riveting, involving film. No other motion picture I have seen this year is as strong as this one. Even-handed to the end, it will raise strong emotions that you cannot surpress.
