Because Berloff's script focuses entirely on police officers John McLoughlin and William J. Jimeno's experience on September 11, the film will not interpret the politics or meaning of September 11, the producers said.

Two police officers trapped in building rubble is only a mildly interesting story unless the backdrop includes the WTC attacks. I call that expoiting a national tragedy to jazz up an otherwise dull film. This is "entertainment", particularly when a box office money maker like Cage is in the film. I'll pass on this one.
