Before seeing this film i was a little hesitant to see it, i thought it was a tad inappropriate to make a high budget film about one of the most tragic days in history. However now i feel that oliver stone wasn't just thinking about how much money this would earn him, the film was made to make a point. It explains how many people died that day and how many officers went in and how so few of them came out. The story of The two men trapped under layers of rubble is truly amazing, there wasn't a dry eye in the cinema screen, a good mix of film and actual footage from that tragic day makes you feel the effect of that day to its full extent. This film definitely shows you what a messed up world we live in. I feel this is the film that should be shown on jumbo screens throughout Iraq, to show those people how much people suffered because of them. Its amazing how the film is so effective, and it doesn't even show the planes going into the buildings, that is amazing film making.
Jennifer Love Hewit is hilarious as sexy superficial Katya Livingston, a she's kinda played this role before as her character is very similar to her one in Heartbreakers. But still i think she's very funny. Confessions, has a simple plot, a sexy Young socialite, who believes everything can be done fabulously! During this film Katya tries desperately to get into the biggest party of the season, The royal Ball. One problem, the host-est,Dove, hasn't invited her, as she hates her blah blah blah. Anyways its hilarious watching Katya stop at nothing to get in, even almost ruining things with her true love! The highlight of the film for me was Joseph Lawrence, he is so funny as Furguson, Katya's gay best friend. I think this was a brave role for him, seeing as most of the characters he's played have been, tough macho men. This proves how talented he really is, i would recommend this film to people purely for his performance. Plus i think he pulls of the bald look very well! Bald or with hair, he's still hot!
Now, this goes out to all those people who have given this film a bad review, come-one, it's not that bad! sure the script is weird and a little confusing but there are a lot more worse films out there. And i don't see why everyone is being so mean to Joey Lawrence, because in fact he's the best bloody thing in the whole god damn film. And come-one, he does look sexy when he gives that girl a body shot!! the film starts off being quite simple Johnny a shy film student gets an invitation from people he doesn't even know to a Halloween party in Mexico. sounds simple enough. but the night before he meets a beautiful girl Tamblyn, who seems to be haunted by a guy called Hector. As Johnny travels up to Mexico he's friends become very ill and stop at a stank house in look of aid, when they come across a old man claiming to be a doctor, he gives all of them some tequila. the two friends instantly feel better, and Johnny is hesitant, but he does in the end drink it and it allows him to read the mind of women. So this helps him find out whats going on with Tamlyn, so long story short Johnny ends up actually going into hell (that scene is actually quite funny!) And saves the day blah blah blah. so anyways i liked this film and i don't really care if you disagree!! he-he! Love ya B*****
