American Terrorist

This is a drinking movie. Support the 1st responders. Every time the actors drink we drink with them.

Cursing but beautifully shot. not so much profanity, please!

Interesting film. The acting was mostly good. The story was, to say the least, confused. I have no idea what happened at the end.

Somewhere in here there is a very good (maybe great) film, but it needs to add 20-30 minutes, at the top, at climax and maybe even add an epilogue too.

That being said, fine performance by Peter Cambor and i appreciate this film was not preachy (which given the subject it could've been) Peter gives a brilliant performance as a larger than life, hothead trader, consumed by rage and fear battling the demons of ptsd and survivor's guilt while surveying from his wall street penthouse perch the destruction of his own life and of the city below.

I was quite surprised when I saw it. This is really a psychological horror film! From the opening credits, I, like the characters, was unsure of where I was going (which is what the entire film is built around) and where it might lead. It seemed so unusually powerful, despite its simplistic execution. There is no overkill or excess in this film, nor is it under written or underplayed. It's just perfect! I felt ahead of the movie at its opening credits. But then, it blasted right through me and got miles ahead of me. It is an attack on our psyche and our fear, our paranoia and our distrust, the lies we are told and the lies we tell ourselves, and it's amazing how, like the film itself, 911 seemed so small and local but it lead to something so much bigger that came to define so much.
