About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want an emotional, inspiring true story that also explains what happened inside the towers in a clear way; Not for you if 9/11 footage and grief-heavy stories are too intense.
Pros: moving survivor accounts; inspiring true story; clear event breakdown | Cons: heavy 9/11 subject; narration feels unnecessary; ending feels uneven
