United 93 (2006) directed by Paul Greengrass

This film is about the passengers in the fourth hijacked plane of September 11, 2001, based on cell phone calls, and other sources.

This film made me think about this entire day differently because the passengers banded together tried to stop the hijackers. When so many movies today are about superheroes or  A-Teams and Expendables it's nice to see some real heroic efforts.

I recently watched another doomed airline movie called The High and the Mighty which was terribly dated and doesn't hold up well at all.

This movie is pretty impressive.

This weekend Cinematic Sara wrote a review of this film.
Defiant Success also blogged about this movie here.

Available on DVD/Netflix.
