Synopsis:

United 93 is a real time account of the events on the fateful day of 11 September inside United 93 flight and the air traffic control room. Four flights were hijacked on that day, two of which crashed into the World Trade Center and one flight crashed into the Pentagon. The fourth flight is United 93. This film shows how passengers foiled the attempt of the terrorists.

What is special in this film?
We all know what happened on that unfortunate day. However, narrating an incident for which the viewers already know the outcome needs an exceptional talent. British director Paul Greengrass work in penning the screenplay in an interesting manner is exemplary. The director stuck to the factual data and did not try to glorify it for dramatic impact. This film does not take any sides and try to give neutral and balanced political views unlike Fahrenheit 9/11, which dug into how the Government reacted to it, and what was the immediate plan of action for the president.

Tailpiece:
This is film like a documentary made in feature film format by making the plot interesting. You end up getting some more perspective about what happened on 9/11 if you watch this film.
