Twin Towers Audience Reviews

Billie Morin This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
Ginger Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
Cheryl A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
kvigiano Well first I'd like to thank Rob Port and Bill Guttentag for completing this film. You don't know how proud it makes my kids.I just wanted to comment on the first review. I'm glad you liked the film but as you pointed out there we're three brothers and one survived, There was just two brothers. Joe and John. You hear Joe's voice on the film because he along with his Unit was being filmed for some new show or something about specialized NYPD units Joe his brother, along with Mike Curtin who is in the film and a total of 23 NYPD cops were killed before the filming was completed. Anyway I think they did a great job with this film, I just wish it could have been shown on TV. Kathy (Joes wife)
mnishimoto This video was presented in a room of 100 first responders on Maui, mostly police with some Fire & Rescue and Health Department staff, as part of a Weapons of Mass Destruction Workshop. After the movie was done, the moderator ended the first day of the workshop with a "See you all tomorrow at 8:30 sharp." No one said a word as they left. The movie humbled the entire audience and left a mark with all on the battle against terrorists.The video images reminded everyone of the potential that they themselves could be in a similar situation as the 9/11 event. The Vigiano family went through what none of us would ever want to experience. If you want to knock the chip of someone's shoulder or shake a person up who is feeling sorry for themselves, have them watch this movie.
Papatoetoe Restores your faith in the human race, a story that will move you. To the film makers and the family my thanks for allowing this to be told in a manner befitting the main characters, my only regret is the need to have to tell the story. May they rest in peace.
Esoteric1616 For any film on the topic of 9/11, no one can really rate its story, but even at the late Sundance screening of this film, everyone stayed awake. "Twin Towers" was gripping and brought back many 9/11 memories. This is truly a story that is worth being told especially on this memorable event. It seems that a ton of effort was put into the creation of this film and I wish you good luck at the Oscars.
