An attempt at a fairly accurate portrayal of the President and his stadd in the days following the 9-11 attack.
I was impressed with the characterisations, and found some sections to be quite moving.
This is a much more accurate portrayal than Farenheit 9-11, which I'm told, contains many factual errors and more artistic license ( its crap in other words)
It's easy to see why certain people are blasting this film , but those people with so much unreasonable dislike for Bush will never be convinced , i prefer to be more objective and cannot see anything i really dislike about him
My condolences to all those who lost their lives that terrible day

Finally a documentary that isn't based on propaganda like that totally useless Fahrenheit 911 fiction. This documentary is based on the facts, not what someone wishes the facts to be. If you take the time to investigate what actually happened, this movie matches exactly what did happen. Just take the time to read (especially blogs) instead of being blinded by the liberal media. Remember the liberal media will always distort the truth to advance their own liberal viewpoint. The only thing I would say about this documentary is that I don't think George Bush actually showed that much emotion. He appears to be much more reserved under pressure. Take the time to watch this and not only will you be entertain, you will probably learn something.
I find it very interesting that for what will probably be one of the only films made of president Bush. The person they get to play him was the same one that played him on a show that made fun of him. The performances are adequate and situations laughable. This film looks like it was written and directed by Karl Rove. George W Bush is portrayed as Alexander the Great. A fearless leader who is all knowing and who had no fear. Every situation regardless if it matches his expertise or experience he is shown as being all knowing. He has all the answers and is never wrong. Since it has always appeared to me and others that Bush is a manifactored President they make him appear as if he created everything instead of who he is. Even though I believe that there is some truths in this it still comes off as bad storytelling. Plus the guy who plays Rumsfeld comes off as being to Gung HO! 5 out of 10
IMDB viewer votes statistics are sometimes as fascinating as the information about the films or the user comments. In this case, roughly 25% of the viewers rated this film at 10, while almost 50% gave it a 1. This tells that we - IMDB viewers - are judging this film according to our political beliefs and not as cinema. Maybe it is too early to make films about 9/11, the emotions are still here, the pain is still intense, the same US president is in office, and we all live daily the fall-outs of 9/11. If we avoid the political judgment, what can we say about the film? Not too much I am afraid. It is not too good as political drama, it does not say too much about the real people behind their masks, well known from the TV screens. Too much film propaganda, too many lines from political speeches and too little human emotion. The film gets a 6 out of 10 on my personal scale.
recently everyone is complaining about Fahrenheit 9-11
DC 9-11 is the total opposite of it but at least Michael Moore used real footage for his Documentary
DC 9-11 is a hodgepodge of real and made up footage which slyly switches from one to the other
an uninformed person might actually think Timothy Bottoms was GW
that John Cunningham was Rummy
that Penny Johnson was Connie
my god GW came off as the biggest Hero since John Wayne
I suggest anyone watching the movie keep a Barf Bag beside the popcorn unless of course ya think that GW is a fine pResident and a true Hero in that case enjoy
