This movie was nothing but a movie that took and sad and heartfelt story into a movie about how Americans did nothing and the big bad guys came to pick on them, American is a big bully country and other countries need to band together and stand up to the bully. The American people are suffering from two horrid rulers and need to free themselves from an evil dictator, or as he has been compared to as the Anti-Christ. I only hope that people who has notice this can teach there kids that though the story is sad, they still need to be taught to have a non-biased way of thinking and that the mistakes in the past must be kept in the past. A prime example of a mistake being remade is the Berlin wall, is being remade as a fence along the American borders. What is our world coming too?
... View MoreI've always like many Disney channel original movies, but I've got to admit, a lot of them have always been cheesy.This movie was different. We got to see what it was like for a girl days before 9/11 and how she really needed her dad back home. It was extremely touching to see her helping little kids who were as scared as her.Major acting chops for Hayden Panettiere! Excellent job and I see a future for her in the acting industry.Even my brothers, who hate Disney Channel, enjoyed this movie. So did my dad! Disney needs to have more serious movies like this and maybe older kids will take them more seriously!
... View MoreMy family and I really enjoyed this movie. It showed different views of the 911 attacks. A man with a son who is directly involved. A child who live in NY and had friends who might be hurt. A daughter of a Navy man. It gave kids a feeling of what it takes to be a military person. It also showed how the families of military people also must sacrifice. How in times like 911 we review our own feelings and what we must do for the good of all. There is a lot of room in this movie to discuss a number of topics on duty and doing the right thing. I would suggest the whole family watch this movie and talk with their kids about what is happening. As a Disney movie it is something that kids will enjoy also.
... View MoreI have been looking forward to this movie for weeks. And after finally being able to watch it , I loved it. This movie teaches us not to think only about ourselves but the others around us. I think that a lot of kids should watch this movie. Its probably for kids 8 and up. Kids younger then 8 probably wont get the plot of the movie and all of the emotions. There are funny lines in the movie but it does have a serious point to it. We see how people react when they hear about the planes crashing into the World Trade Center , Pentagon, and the field in PA. This movie makes you be very thankful. Hayden did an awesome job of being silly, cranky, and responsible. Jansen (Hayden's little brother) will probably be in more movies and TV shows. The cast was really good and got the point along.
