9/11 the movie

[Revoltor]

I was watching Last Samurai tonight on HBO and saw their commercial for "The Hamburg Cell". It's supposed to be 9/11 from the perspective of the terrorists (or freedom fighters I guess).

Premiers January 10, 10:00 pm on HBO2 and then January 19 really fucking late at night on HBO (2:05am)

Rated TV14: ADULT CONTENT, ADULT LANGUAGE, VIOLENCE

Running Time: 105 minutes

Genre:

Like hundreds of other exchange students living in Hamburg, Germany in the 1990s, Muhammad Atta, Ziad Jarrah and Marwan al-Shehhi were quiet, orderly tenants who never drew attention to themselves. But on September 11, 2001, they became part of the worst attack ever waged on U.S. soil. This daring drama sheds light on these young Islamic men who were transformed into Al Qaeda killers while in Hamburg--and who would eventually enact the diabolical plan that destroyed the Twin Towers. This semi-fictionalized dramatic account stars Karim Saleh, Kamel, Agni Tsangaridou and Omar Berdouni. Directed by Antonia Bird; written by Ronan Bennett and Alice Pearman. Widescreen.

Should be interesting I'd guess.

I saw that preview a while to and wasn't sure what to think of it. It could be interesting. HBO has produced some excellent movies based around dark characters such as Citizen X(Andrei Chikitilo) and Gotti.

In a movie like this I think it'd be interesting to show the contrast between average Muslims and the Islamic extremists.

They also have another terrorist movie in January as well called "Dirty War":

It's fictional and involves the UK instead.
