    Well, people made jokes about Hollywood making a 9/11 movie with bad casting. Also, I hope It beats this film in the box office since they come out on the same day. That's how out I found this movie was even a thing for those curious.

    Even by the wacky metric South Park uses, we still have 7 years & 3 months before this is able to be funny.

    I am sorry, but as much I love Charlie Sheen, I cannot, in good conscience, see this.

    On a related note, I do, however, recommend "World Trade Center" with Nicolas Cage. That actually was pretty good.

    Isn't he a 9/11 "truther?" Kind of an extra poke in the eye on top of all this.

    Isn't it too soon to make a 9/11 comedy though?

    Peter Griffin did one in order to spite James Woods after Woods stole his identity.

    It didn't feel honestly funny. It felt more like a spoof, which does more disrespect to 9/11 than if it was a comedy.

    It's not a comedy people. It a drama. A very cliched drama but still a drama.

    That was the first thing that came to my mind after watching the trailer.

    Just saw the trailer.
    It ain't no comedy.
    Very serious drama.
    Not sure what this has to offer, tho. Looks to be primarily set in an elevator.
    Have a good idea how it ends tho...

    Hoped it were a comedy, but I feared it was gonna be serious. Charlie was a great actor, but I prefer to see him in comedies :(

    That's the thing though. It's was so cliche that it felt like an SNL skit. Having it star an actual 9/11 truther makes this a freaking joke.

    BTW, Sheen and Goldberg can and have done good drama roles before. But this does them no favors.
