Movie review - "United 93" (2006) *****

The best movie I've seen at a cinema in years - I had such an emotional response to it that by the end I was totally gutted, I couldn't move out of my chair. Incredibly powerful, I felt as though I was a passenger on the plane. You see the passengers: old ladies, young women, family men. Its heartbreaking. My heart was pounding from the beginning because I knew what was going to happen - the most exciting sequences are when the terrorists take over and the final assault. Only real debit: some of the acting is a little iffy. But the ones who play the terrorists are terrific and generally the standard of acting is fine. A masterpiece.
