42. Funny you should ask...I just saw it for the 2nd time today
And I have to agree that everyone should see it more than once. I liked and appreciated it even more the second time around.

I had read so much about it beforehand and was so excited to see it the first time that I spent a lot of time thinking about when they would show such-and-such, etc. It made the movie seem disjointed to me and also seemed to go by too fast. Kind of overwhelming.

My husband, one the other hand, who didn't want to read anything about it before he went, was absolutely blown away at the first viewing. He couldn't get out of his seat for about 5-10 minutes after it ended because he was so choked up. His brother was a victim of the "Stop-Loss" order and is stationed in Iraq now, months after he was due to separate from the Guard. With tears in his eyes he said the part that bothered him the most was when the two soldiers were just standing by that tree and that explosion went off. The look on their faces. He said he just knows that something like that could happen to his brother.

I highly recommend seeing F911 a second, third or fourth time. As a matter of fact, I travel a lot and I think I'm going to see it in as many cities/states that I can. Then I'll send Michael Moore a collage of my ticket stubs! Thank you, Michael!!
