Product Description

"World Trade Center is a film about heroism and the best in all of us," raves Good Morning America’s Joel Siegel. Academy Award winner, Nicolas Cage stars in the unforgettable true story of the courageous rescue and survival of two Port Authority policemen who were trapped in the rubble on September 11, 2001 after they volunteered to go in and help. Academy Award winning director, Oliver Stone reveals an intimate look at the events of the day as seen through the eyes of the survivors, their families and their rescuers

Amazon.com

Regardless of whether it was "too early" in 2006 to dramatize the events of September 11th, 2001, World Trade Center succeeds as a tribute to the courage and sacrifice of those who served at "ground zero" in the wake of terrorist attacks on the WTC's twin towers in New York City. Removed from the politics of war and terrorism (yet still, like all films, inherently political in expressing its point of view), Oliver Stone's potent drama focuses on the nightmarish ordeal, and subsequent rescue, of Port Authority policemen John McLoughlin (Nicolas Cage) and Will Jimeno (Michael Peña), who were buried deeply within the rubble of the WTC after the twin towers collapsed. Granted, it's only the film's historical context that distinguishes it from any other dramatic rescue story, but in focusing on the goodness of humanity in response to the evil of terrorists who remain unnamed and off-screen, Stone and first-time screenwriter Andrea Berloff create an emotional context as powerful as anything Stone has directed since Platoon. Even as he resorts to some questionable tactics typically lacking in subtlety, Stone refrains from much of the blunt-force filmmaking that has made him a critical punching bag, rising to this challenging occasion with a heartfelt and deeply American portrait of unity – personal, familial, and national. Flaws and all, World Trade Center serves an honorable purpose, reminding us all that for those fleeting days in September 2001, America showed its best face to a sympathetic world. --Jeff Shannon

This movie is so riveting.....

ByG. Martinon June 16, 2017

Format: Amazon VideoVerified Purchase

Like most Americans, I often struggle with this event in history, having watched it that morning on TV. Feeling completely helpless and unable to do anything, other than to pray for the lives that were being affected. This movie captures the drama that unfolded in how families were being ripped apart, some forever. To see what some of these men went through in the real footage used in the film, it's heart breaking. But, having said this, this movie captures the dignity of two brave men that were there just doing what they loved best; rushing into harms way when others would not. The acting is riveting, the scenes are so real. The chirps of the pagers after the towers fell....all of it in this movie brings it back to life, even 16 years later. This movie garnering a 6.0/10 on the movie review average does nothing to relate the wonderful work in this movie, the directing, the actors, all of it. It's compelling to watch and pulls at your heart. In my mind, it's one of the best movies from 2006. A movie that was well done, a story that was well told.

ByCTon August 21, 2015

Format: DVDVerified Purchase

More people should watch this. Free of politics or bias, it gives a very accurate account of what Will and John went through during their entrapment under the rubble. The loss of other of their fellow Port Authority Police Officers is told with the dignity and respect that is deserved. Having served at the WTC after the attacks, and hearing the first hand account from one of those rescued, it is a remarkable story of Hope, Faith and Love! There was an error about the Marine(s) who were involved in first finding them but, that was a mistake that does not detract from the overall account depicted in the movie.

Touching portrayal of a day that broke all of our hearts

ByYour Average Reviewon June 22, 2017

Format: Amazon VideoVerified Purchase

Fair enough to say that the film primarily focuses on the experience of two survivors. And, some may find issue with this. There are also moments when the people depicting the survivors coming out of the towers seem inauthentic. But, I don't think that it takes away from what 9/11 represented for different people, especially since we are looking at the day from the perspective of people who were willing to give up their lives for others that day. It allows enough room for one to embrace how personal that day was for everyone The movie brings one right back to the emotions lived that day, as if it was just happening today. And, I am hopeful that this means that it will be an opportunity for future generations to look at the tragedy, the heroism and the resiliency of that day so that they never forget; and in turn, honor those that were lost. May the souls of the faithful departed rest in peace and may perpetual light shine upon them. Amen. God bless, America.

Great movie and reminder of what happened!!

ByBrdrswrldon June 17, 2017

Format: Amazon VideoVerified Purchase

It took me awhile to watch this movie. I remember every day as it was yesterday. My parents were supposed to fly home from Europe and their plane was delayed. I thought I had stress about ever being able to see my parents again. I watch this movie and it's a reminder of how fortunate I was that they made it home. Enough about me. The movie was well thought out and a good contribution to help us remember the day, but mostly to all those people that lost someone, my heart goes out to you. May the spirits of your family and friends hold you together and give you strength to continue on. I have learned to cherish the memories of all the people I have lost and hope you can find strength to cherish the memories that you have.

Bychrison June 24, 2017

Format: Amazon VideoVerified Purchase

After a rather slow beginning, the drama intensified to a point where I was completely drawn in and it were as though I was reliving the events of September 11th, 2001. Clever use of actual footage from that day intermingled with acting to recreate scenes. I found myself wondering how did they even attempt to recreate the circumstances. It was impressive and compelling, and I was completely engrossed. I was between 4 stars and 5, but I gave it 5 because of the excellent job recreating the atmosphere of what occurred on that day.

A great movie about true life heroes and incredible strength to survive. They could not have survived without the help their fellow heroes. True human goodness by heroes and true human evil by the enemy. All of our heroes in uniform were helping that day!!!
