World Trade Centre a pretty effective drama

World Trade Centre (Paramount, €24.99) is far from the political polemic we have come to expect from director, Oliver Stone.

Perhaps, the enormity of America’s Twin Tower attacks is too fresh in the US psyche to explore. But, Stone does deliver a pretty effective drama that plucks two heroes (Nicholas Cage is one) from the wreckage of the terrorist attack.

While some critics have lambasted the focus on two survivors, Stone has managed to steer his own course.

Both single and double disc versions include two commentaries, one by Stone, plus deleted or extended scenes, but the latter also includes an impressive bunch of featurettes.

Drama

Star Rating: 3/5.
