It's the best made-for-TV movie in years.
By Gloria Goodale FULL REVIEW

Powerfully acted, artfully produced and shot like a truly riveting page-turner.
By Ray Richmond FULL REVIEW

An unsparing, and at times hyperbolic, portrait of bureaucratic turf wars, buck passing and complacency.
By Alessandra Stanley FULL REVIEW

One could never call "The Path to 9/11 " poorly filmed and amateurishly acted. Just questionably written.
By Melanie McFarland FULL REVIEW

The six-hour film plays like a 9/11 version of "Syriana" or "Traffic," replete with ultra-close-ups and so much shaky, hand-held footage it can feel like being led around the world, half-drunk and half-blind.
By Heather Havrilesky FULL REVIEW

The miniseries asks a lot of patience on the part of viewers and gives too little in return.
By Rob Owen FULL REVIEW

"Path" is the dullest, worst-shot TV movie since ABC's disastrous "Ten Commandments" remake. It substitutes shaky handheld cameras and dumb dialogue for craftsmanship. It could not be more amateurish or poorly constructed unless someone had forgotten to light the sets.
