One of the most amateurish films I've ever seen


This is actually one of my only (or first?) posts to IMDB boards--I want to spare other people the pain I endured in sitting through this laughable excuse for a (you can't even really call it a movie, to be honest--let's call it a home movie.) And I must say at the outset that I hate the Bush administration and deplore the 9/11 disaster as much or more as anyone out there.

I went to a screening with the filmmaker the other day. I actually stayed to the end even tho' I was bored silly and fell asleep a few times because I actually was interested in knowing more about the alleged 9/11 conspiracy theories, something I have not paid much attention to. The audience was filled with apparent true believers, but in a normal theater, non-converts would be walking out in droves (if they came in at all). Too bad, since I think the information may be worth following up and, who knows, there might be some real validity. This director is not helping his cause--he can't write, can't direct and can barely act. Most of the actors in featured roles seemed like amateurs as well. This has to be one of the biggest stinkers I've seen in 40+ years of avid filmgoing. Director is even long-winded and boring when he talks (Q & A after the screening), altho' he seems like a nice enough guy and had to use credit cards to finance his film. Has a cute little boy though, who was in the audience. If you want info about 9/11 conspiracy theories, go elsewhere.
