Two 9/11 Movies to be Released This Year

World Trade Center (August), Flight 93 (April 28): Have we reached that point where the shock of September 11, 2001, has worn off sufficiently where we want to see the events reprised on the big screen?

The curiosity factor - and two very different approaches - bode well for the first theatrical dramatizations about the terrorist attacks.

Oliver Stone's World Trade Center stars Nicolas Cage and Michael Pena in the real-life story of Port Authority policemen trapped in the rubble of the twin towers.

Flight 93, directed by Paul Greengrass (The Bourne Supremacy) uses a casts of unknowns as passengers who fought back against terrorists on the plane that crashed September 11 in rural Pennsylvania.
