I actually like the idea of focusing on a small part of the disaster, but I also know how big movies tend to dominate the memory of an event. I would just prefer the big long-remembered 9/11 movie to be one that is a little more encompassing than this one appears to be. We'll see.

There was no single big movie about WWII. There were many. My guess is that we'll see quite a few movies about 9-11 before anyone has the balls to make one that aspires to show the big picture of that day.
