Just saw F911.

Yeah I know I'm late, I just wanted to have my own thread too. :P

Good movie, not too much that I hadnt heard about, but it was interesting to see it all layed out there in video format.

I thought it was also interesting to see how Moore dealt with the actual attack on the World Trade Center.

I liked how he didnt actually show the towers, I know why he did that. We have all already seen these images before, and he didnt want to have the attack overshadow the rest of the film in the same sense that they did in real life.

1. 9-11...

I saw the film in an almost empty theater. Perhaps 7 people were there with me. So there wasnt the feeling of sharing that so many viewers have reported on.

As activists, most of us are totally aware of the subject matter since we have followed this unfolding bit of history from it's inception. What we havent seen, as you pointed out, was the graphics all tied together in a coherent manner. Moore did this very well.

My own opinion is that Moore understated, rather than overstated, the events as they came across the screen. In a country where the media has been hiding the truth for the past several years, to see this exposed was a shock in it's own right.

The main right-wing thrust of the attacks against this film came from those icons who either saw part of the film...or who did not see the film at all. Support for the film has come from more moderate sources but has been overwhelming.

Certainly the film has brought much to the general public who took the opportunity to see it.
