8:46 – Mini Review #4
9/11 changed America and the world forever. 8:46 attempts to commemorate the lives lost on the tragic day, but falls flat. I liked the idea of intertwining the lives of eight different characters at various walks of life, but the acting of these characters destroyed any chances of the film getting across its intended message. Most of the story takes place on September 10th. This adds to the tragedy of 9/11 as many of the characters are going through the motions of their daily routines, unaware they will meet death tomorrow. 8:46 recounts a horrible tragedy, but only offers bad acting and the occasional tear.
