For those who think it's too soon...when isn't it too soon? Ten years..15, 20? Is there some set milestone that passes in which it's no longer a play on people's emotions to portray an event like this and is therefore suddenly in good taste to do so? Depicting world changing events like this on film will always stir memories and emotions...many vets had very strong reactions after viewing Saving Private Ryan, and that was 50 years after the fact. It's all a matter of personal taste and personal response, and some people are ready in terms of enough time having passed. There may not ever be enough passed time for some.
I don't know if I will see the movie or not. I like to go to movies to escape in a good/funny/entertaining story for a couple of hours...I don't think this will fit the bill.
