It's New York City 9/11 panic times 1000 heart-stoppingly terrifying with all the thrills of an out-of-control high powered roller coaster ride: NYC gets seriously whacked!! It's a VERY good movie. I live in NYC, and they've somehow managed to blend the special effects into the film they've taken of NYC on the streets and from the air. It's one of the most realistic looking sci-fi films I've even seen. It'll set the standard for it's type of film making for a long long time. The editing and style are unusual, but if they tried to make this as a normal big-budget thriller, it would not be even half as good. See it on a Friday or Saturday night when at least half the audience is 25 or under. See it with someone you can hold on to . . . ! P.S.
