Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

flavia_cj For me this is the best documentary about 9/11 until today. Other documentaries make analysis more cold and rational about the attacks, and has its great importance, of course, but this one is 100% immersive because it shows the point of view of those who felt the terror in the skin, without the need for any narrator in the background explaining the events. This is the strength of this documentary: the images and the reaction of the people speak for themselves. It gives the sensation of fear, confusion and perplexity that the people were feeling. Even if you're not a North American, even if you live in another country far this tragedy, when you watch this documentary, you have the full feeling that was there that day. A very impressive and impactful documentary.

Steve Crook They said in the opening credits that this was made from previously unseen footage. There's good reason that it was previously unseen - most of it is of extremely poor quality, even the parts shot by professional crews. I presume that all the better quality parts were used in the many other documentaries. Lots of shots of not being able to see very much.It was interspersed with extracts from radio & TV commentators uttering the usual inanities and not really not what was going on. Many reports of "panic on the streets" - following by shots of people trying to get away as quickly as possible, but no sign of any panic. Lots of news crews disregarding the advice to clear the roads or leave the area, getting in the way of people trying to help other people.911 operators telling people in the twin towers to stay where they were, the firemen were on the way. But they couldn't be expected to have known that the towers would collapse. I doubt if even the attackers expected that.

anakinahsokageek18 I saw this for the first time a year ago and until I saw this, I never knew how horrible 9/11 was for I was only 9 years old. Seeing this made my heart stop and start nonstop, my hair stand up on end, and adrenaline rushing through me. And although I had nothing related to 9/11, just seeing this made me feel that I do. I've watched other documentaries after I saw this and none of them were as educational as this one. I would definitely recommend this to someone who doesn't know how horrible that day was. And I have to give the crew members an A+ on the sound editing and on how they arranged all the recorded footage into the film to make an actual timeline.

Duckmaster 102 minutes that changed America is a totally engrossing documentary, focusing on the attacks in New york in real time. Much of the footage has never been seen before. It captures perfectly the terror, chaos and confusion of that morning, using police and fire department radio calls, 911 calls from people trapped in the towers and of course video footage from news cameras and people in the street. The most amazing moment is filmed from an apartment several blocks away. As two women talk off camera, the second plane flies into the second tower. The screams of horror and disbelief that follow are just incredible to hear. Unmissable.
