John Podhoretz has a great review of the new movie United 93, about the airplane that crashed in Pennsylvania on 9/11, here. The film opens tomorrow, April 28. It has a 90% rating at Rotten Tomatoes which means that the vast majority of movie critics think it’s a great movie. Here’s a blurb from the review:

In the film’s final 32 minutes, the passengers and crew become, as
Greengrass has said, "the first people to live in the post-9/11 world."
They gather information quickly, including word that a third plane has
struck the Pentagon. The men who choose to storm the cockpit don’t give
speeches about their intentions. They simply decide they must do
something, and they know there is a pilot among the passengers who
might be able to land the plane. They don’t intend to die. They intend
to win.

Well, I’m planning to go see it.
