Sorry.

The trailer looks pretty good.

Typos happen to the best of us.

Oliver Stone could use a hit. I have a feeling this film will be a wonderful homage to the 9-11 firefighters. Man bites dog.

I refuse to see anything from Oliver Stone.

He has zero credibility.

The only good movie Stone ever did was Wall Street.

That said, I've heard that this one is not what you'd expect from Stone, and we might be pleasantly surprised. Even so, I think I'll wait before even considering to see it firsthand.

Yes, it looks very good, but unless he edits out Maggie Gyllenhaal it loses all credibility. Stone should save her screen time for a "Directors Cut" edition.

Has Paramount ever heard of the term "focus group" ?

According to Stone,US troops in Vietnam entertained themselves by bayoneting women and children....

And,no doubt,Stone will claim that Cheney and Halliburton brought down the WTC.

I don't see that in the trailer. I see firefighters, I see heros, I see a day that affected us all.

Just my 2 cents

I watched the trailer. It looks good, but a minute or two of film does not tell us much. I'll wait until I learn more before deciding.

Wow

Indeed.

If Stone can refrain from making a political movie full of his crazy conspiracy theories, this could be an excellent, heart-wrenching film.

Let me get this straight. Playing a commercial for a movie is supposed to erase the fact that Oliver Stone is one of the most agenda-driven directors in Hollywood history?

Know your facts. Then comment.
