"United Flight 93".

"United Flight 93". I wasn't very interested in this movie at first. As for the movies that reflect the ordinary American people in 9/11, it is conceivable that they are mainly praises. The problem is that no one seems to be able to evade why anyone would rather be a human bomb, and American movies seem to be honestly endearing in answering this question. But "UNITED93" is a very good film. The reason why it is good is that it is honest and has no artistic techniques. It is trying to reproduce every moment of the flight from takeoff to the crash, not only on the flight, but also in Boston. Air traffic control stations in New York and around, and every minute of our experience at US military bases. It's a creative documentary about the panic, the daze, the hesitation, the frenzy, the shock, the fear, and the desperate gamble that morning. In other words, it strives to restore the pressure of life and death. It is said that the film received rave reviews after its release in the United States, which can only be attributed to its honesty. In the face of a group of heroes from a plane, you may not be able to be honest. There is no real protagonist in this movie. The beauty of it is that it continues to maintain that narrative tension, which is what documentaries are best at. Until the end, when the climax moment arrives, the portrayal of the film is very faithful, so it is particularly unforgettable. From this point of view, The ending of UNITED93 is similar to the beginning of Saving Private Ryan. A long shot of chaos and final struggle (or struggle, or despair). Then came the suffocating darkness. Total darkness. The screenwriter and director of the film is British director Paul Greengrass, who is known for his non-fiction films, and this effect may be what he wants to make.
