I feel like this movie is inspired by those who love to make others pay by their will of justice. While listening to the group Londonbeat, Build It with Love, I feel that true terrorists love to build bridges by making fences as well. Londonbeat featured their single, Build It with Love, in the soundtrack "Virtuosity" under the label radioactive records. I think back about the Chernobyle nuclear accident and how the wind direction was coincidently blowing into Russia instead of South into the city of Kiev, of the Ukraine. The "winds of change" were also blowing as they carried the U.S. passenger jets into these Twin Trade Towers on 9/11/01.
This movie is O.K. as far as a movie but as far as a true documentary it stinks.
I would really like to see a movie about counter-espionage and the Israeli intelligence agency the Mossad. I saw the "Sword of Gideion" which was interesting but I would like to see one that is similar to how the character Columbo would investigate a crime. Israeli involvement with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), and the value of the Merkava battle tank to Lebanon Hizbulla para-military radicals. Maybe the title could be "Friends of Governor Arnold Swarzennager".

This was a good movie but I realize with what happened on Sept. 11,2001 it may be hard to watch. I thought the cast did an excellent job. George Clooney was good and John Karlen too. The whole cast was good. I know this is about the bombing and I know for some it will be very difficult to watch. It may be difficult for me to watch again for a while too.
In Britain we have a show called 999 where real life disasters are reconstructed on screen . I don`t know if there is an equivalent show in the US but watching WITHOUT WARNING made me think I was watching a feature length episode of 999 because this TVM is filmed entirely on video tape so it can be intercut with real life footage of the 1993 world trade centre bombing and feels too much like a reconstruction than a drama. It`s all rather understated and fairly undramatic but I suppose that`s better than the glossy PEARL HARBOR approach of having hunky up and coming stars shouting " Get me a damn firehose " and running into a blazing building in slo-mo . And I guess there is some irony of seeing a then pre ER George Clooney spending much of this TVM in a hospital bed as an injured fireman . But it`s impossible nowadays to write the initials WTC or hear the words " World trade centre " without thinking of the date 9/11
The bombing didn't last long enough to make a good movie out of it. I realize that sounds a bit crass. I beg the forgiveness of people whose lives were scarred by this terrible event. My point is, if you're making a disaster movie, you want the disaster to last for a while. That, frankly, is what makes the movie worth watching. The sinking of the Titanic is absolutely perfect for the movies - 2 hours and 40 minutes from the moment the ship hit the iceberg to when it vanished beneath the waves. Ideal! You can be assured that James Cameron pondered the timing as he thought about doing the movie. "The Towering Inferno" - that skyscraper took forever to burn. This film - a lot of preface, a lot of emergency responders, very little oomph. I do like the outdoor shots with shards of snow falling down.
I saw this movie for the first time at 3 in the morning as i was flipping through channels one summer night but I fell asleep before it was over. Eventually I was at a friends house and he had told me he was an extra in this movie so we watched it and it was a pretty good movie and it was even more interesting how several of todays stars are in that movie especially since it was one made for tv. Good job, despite today's post 9/11 situation.
