I don't understand why they had to name it 'United 93' they could have named it something different and say in the beginning that the story was inspired by what investigators believe to have happened in United 93. People are going to come out of the theatres and think "That was what really happened inside United 93, period." No one knows what really happened on board United 93 except those souls that were trapped inside that aircraft against their will and died for it. We don't need a hollywood film that either over-glorifies what those passengers did in there nor under-glorify it. Their heroism should be glorified as-is, without any changes to what happened or making up stories. And since no one breathing today knows exactly what happened, we should just appreciate the fact that the plane did not strike its intended target.

Unless I know that the funds from this film are going to a good cause and not in the hands of money-hungry studios, I will not support or watch this film. This was only just a little over 4 years ago. In my mind, the wounds of 911 are still fresh.
I agree.
