Accuracy aside, ABC's '9/11' deserves to bomb

[EC]

BY DOUG ELFMAN TELEVISION CRITIC


<snip>

Excuse us all, writer Cyrus Nowrasteh and director David L. Cunningham, for not acting like Hitler

Youth in the glory days before ordinary Americans knew commercial planes could be turned into missiles.

Idiots.

Ground Zero is a sobering soil worthy of facts, not flimsy fiction. The victims of 9/11 deserve

2,996 times more careful and compelling filmmaking than what Nowrasteh, Cunningham and

ABC have bored together. They are bearing false witness to the memory of the fallen.

This guy is almost always right in his reviews, I'll watch anything he suggests usually and not watch what he pans.....good on him....

1. "The dullest, worst-shot TV movie since ABC's disastrous

"Ten Commandments" remake. It substitutes shaky handheld cameras and dumb dialogue for craftsmanship. It could not be more amateurish or poorly constructed unless someone had forgotten to light the sets."

Just like one of those Soviet-era propaganda jobs.
