This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place

Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

Operation Terror provides a more realistic scenario than a guy in a cave in Afghanistan organizing some skinny guys with box cutters outwitting NORAD. 1. 6 ton steel beams cannot fly sideways from the WTC to hit the AmEx building 600 feet away at 60 mph with enough force to stick like darts. 2. Concrete does not crush like air at free fall speed in the WTC 7 for over 2 seconds, as acknowledged by NIST 3. It does not take NORAD or the Air National Guard over an hour to respond to 4 subsonic passenger planes, especially from nearby air bases such as Andrews Air Force Base only a few miles from the Pentagon. Path to 9/11 is propaganda. Ask for a better explanation, such as www.OperationTerror.com

Full of mockumentary camera wobble. The only thing worse than the camera wobble were the non-stop lies. Actually, the only thing worse than the non-stop lies was the film taking six hours for a plot that could have been summarised in two: President Clinton, according to this, was spectacularly indecisive, and President Bush extremely decisive. Although claiming to be "based on" the 9/11 Commission Report, it contradicts by the 9/11 Commission Report in several important places.And worse than that: it's dull. You wouldn't think that a film made about such a major disaster could be dull. But it was.

This is a must see film, done extremely well, both in acting and directing. At the time of this writing, the film is rated a low 5.9 which I think has a lot to do with those who are wearing political blinders. Over 400 of them gave this film a one rating. Please. You may not like the movie's politics, but it is well made and NOt some sort of "right wing propaganda" film as some critics claim.Two of my favorite scenes involve the border agent who intercepts the terrorist trying to come into the country with a carload of supplies to make bombs and earlier, the tension generated by the scenes following the Muslim man opposed to killing innocent women and children, as he prepares to turn over the bomb maker from the first World Trade Center bombing. Are they on to him? Is he getting away with this? Its great suspense.Keitel is also terrific and well cast as the main FBI agent in charge and it was good seeing Dan Lauria in something other than a "dad" role. He was also quite effective.It's good film-making. And tells a story a good many of us lived through, but didn't really pay much attention to at the time.

ABC is a floundering network and people see this as an attempt to garner attention back to it. While those people may have a point, it is a mute one. "The truth has a certain ring to it." The movie didn't have to convince me that something was amiss in our government that led to 9/11, we kinda gather that assumption as individuals on our own... it happened. While there is nothing we can do to undo what happened, we should look back on how we came to "allow" one of the worst terrorist attacks in America's history to happen and to see what we should do so it never happens again. This movie allows the historical timeline of events to guide us towards how we arrived to a day so horrific. While critics and politicians are complaining that the film is not 100% "verbatim" on what the 9/11 Commission has published, it volunteers information from other sources that combine altogether making a hard film to dispute. I am extraordinarily grateful that this is not another crying fest about "that day"; out of the five hours, this two part film shows only a concrete 25 minutes of the madness occurring on 9/11. No one will ever think the same way after watching this film, regardless of it's 'accuracy'. They say the proof is in the pudding, and in this case the pudding isn't in the film at all; It's in the way the Democrats and Republicans complain about this film... they complain with such detail about particular instances! That through my mind, in the afterward, makes this one of ABC's finest contributions to television in a long time. The greatest perspective of this instantaneous classic is that this is a very human film in that humans make poor judgment... and sometimes they make poor judgments too many times in succession. Execution of this movie is flawless. Casting for this film was top-notch; led by strong willed Harvey Keitel is an ensemble of overwhelming supporting performances next to impossible to single out. The film's Editing, Cinematography, Timing, Set Design, Haunting Score, and pitch perfect directing make this film one of the two best I've seen so far this year (the other being "When the Levees Broke") This is one you can't ignore and shouldn't miss seeing. At most, this is only a comment based on one man's opinion. I implore you to watch, and see if you can honestly have a different opinion.
