United 93

I'd watched the "made for t.v." version of United 93. And that was bad, really bad.

But, I'd not been able to let myself watch the theatre version. I purchased it the day it came out, telling myself I'd watch it.....someday. Apparently today was that day.

If you want to feel:agony, anguish, anxiety, bitterness, despondency, distress, grief, heartache, hurt, malaise, misery, sadness, shock, suffering, torment, torture, woe and wretchedness, then by all means, watch this movie.

I still have red little half moons embedded in my palms from fisting my hands so hard, and I finished watching the movie a half hour ago.

At the inevitable end, I was sobbing, hyperventilating and cursing so violently at the t.v. and the sons of bitches who brought that plane and the other 3 down, that my dog left the room. I am still hiccupping a bit. That movie is foul, so very foul. The acting is brilliant and the story line gripping. But the very fact this movie was ever made is just foul.

I feel like running over the disc repeatedly with my car, then burning it. Just to get the filthy foul feeling it left in my heart out.

So, that's what I think of that movie. Who else saw it and what did you think?
