United 93 Reviews |
Seeing United 93 represents a difficult film-going experience, and one that should not be undertaken lightly. It's hard to imagine anyone not being affected on some level by United 93. But the value of what this picture imparts is worth the challenge of sitting through it. When I compile my Top 10 list of films for 2006, United 93 will be on it, and almost certainly close to the top. [read review] 
--James Berardinelli (ReelViews)
I can't enthusiastically endorse this movie to everyone. For some, it will be hard to relive the events of 9/11, and it will take a lot longer for them to be ready to see a film like this. Greengrass has created such realistic reenactments of the events that viewing this film is often uncomfortable and even voyeuristic, but there's an immediacy and urgency to the material that almost makes it mandatory viewing for anyone still seeking answers or even closure.

--Edward Douglas (ComingSoon.net)
Five years ago, 40 ordinary people—men and women of disparate ages, races, backgrounds, nationalities, religions, sexual orientations, and politics, and most complete strangers to one another—banded together and altered the history of the world. For a society for which 9/11 has become a fading dream, it isn't too soon for a film like United 93. It never can be. [read review] 
...is not an easy movie to watch but, like a witness to a horrible accident, you can’t take your eyes off of it. There is much food for thought to be digested here and this film will stay with you for a long time, just like the real event it depicts. [read review] A-,B
If you believe you can watch this from an objective point of view, think again. This isn’t so much a film as a memorial to the victims of 9/11. My advice is if you’re willing to put yourself through the experience, bring plenty of tissues. [read review] A
--Rebecca Murray (About.com)
As difficult as it is to even consider watching it, this is a truly must-see motion picture, and another important piece in the continuing comprehension of what took place that ordinary September morning. [read review]
--Brian Orndorf (eFilmCritic.com)
UNITED 93 is not just respectful in that it doesn’t sentimentalize those who died, it’s also a gripping drama made all the more potent for being played out by ordinary people rising to the occasion... [read review]
--Andrea Chase (Killer Movie Reviews)
This movie has you witness a horrible event that will leave a lump in your throat, unless of course you're just another Bush hating conspiracy whack job who wants to see something that is never shown. [read review] 
--Eric Nash (TheMovieBuffs.com)
Greengrass’ honorable film joins similar memorials erected to honor the dead, standing tall as it pays tribute to the Americans that gave their lives that day in the name of freedom. [read review]
--Sean O'Connell (FilmCritic.com)
...This might be the closest they'll be able to come to knowing all these things. The story will become myth and legend; and, when done well in a film like United 93, pure power. [read review] 9/10
--Jeffrey Chen (WindowToMovies.com)
...Other than that, even though we all know the ending, this is a superb, not-to-be-missed film that compellingly recreates the events of that tragic day. [read review] 9/10

Unflinching account of the terror aboard the fourth hijacked plane on Sept. 11 provokes deep, disturbing emotions. [read review]
