Aftermath: Unanswered Questions from 9/11 (2003) watch online HD

This film asks a series of important questions about 9-11, it is less challenging than some of the other films made in the same vein, it sticks to a few key areas where the there are blanks in the logic of what happened.

As time goes on, questions remain unanswered, the political exploitation of the terrorist threat continues and we really should be questioning the events of that day as clearly they have become the foundation of a series of actions which could not have otherwise happened.

My take... politicians are the lowest forms of life and more than capable of doing much more than they are accused of in this film, there was also more than adequate motive, but I also believe in the burden of proof being on the prosecution.

It is an interesting and stimulating film, which will have you discussing and even arguing your view for some time to come. Discussion and debate are a good thing and this is a worthy topic. The subject has been almost off limits due to the war and the knee jerk tabloid reactions, perhaps now in 2005 the public are ready to re-appraise the event that changed world history and to ask some of the questions that couldn't be asked at the time.

This film is essentially 11 questions answered by various people who refuse (rightly) to accept all of the Bush Administrations pat answers concerning what happened on 9/11. The film takes questions like "Could this have been foreseen?", "Did the Government have any clue this was due to occur? " and "Are there connections to the Government to the terrorists?" and answers them in bite sized pieces. The answers aren't too detailed but enough is revealed to want you to know more (especially when some of them are frightening, like the fact the multiple plane hijack had been done 31 years earlier to the day and ended up with the planes being blown up in Jordan). From a place to start investigating this is a good film since it lays out a number of key issues quickly. If however you want more meat this film is lacking since many of the questions and answers could use more than the cursory explanation. (The recent DVD release adds some extended interview footage and a condensed panel discussion which are interesting but not as detailed as they could have been). Over all worth renting or catching on TV (if anyone is bold enough to play it) but not worth purchasing.

Aftermath: Unanswered Questions from 9/11 (2003)

** (out of 4)

This here is one of the many conspiracy videos out there dealing with the terrorist events of September 11. This one here features eleven different questions being answered by eleven different people. I must say that 9/11 will never escape my mind as I still remember every second of that day as if it was yesterday. No one needs to talk about the historic importance of that day but as with all major events there are going to be those who feel that the government lied about what really happened. This is just one video making various claims about what did or didn't really happen. The way I view things is that you can never really know but I've never been one to believe everything any side tells me. Whether that's the government or the producers of this film. I must say that this is perhaps the most bland and boring of the conspiracy videos that I've seen for a number of reasons. For one, there's a narrator who is speaking with such a deep voice that it just sounds fake and this adds some unintentional laughs to everything being said. Another problem is the format itself as having eleven questions being answered by eleven people, none of them experts, just struck me as being bland. I'm always nervous about any documentary that just shows one side but this film here not only does that but they really don't offer up any proof of what the people here are saying. They tell us why 9/11 was staged but the next thing on my mind is where's any evidence and none is ever given. We're told that the U.S. let Pearl Harbor happen just like they let 9/11 happen yet I need more than just some guy telling me this is what happened. At just 30-minutes this thing is way too short to really dig into anything that we're told and in the end it's a rather pointless film.
