Zemeckis-fest Yeah, I’m not in love with this. It’s an interesting story, but I don’t know if it’s interesting enough for a two-hour movie. You know what he’s planning to do the whole movie, and then he does it. Is it perfectly easy? Perhaps not, but everything does work out in a fairly uninteresting way. Maybe it’s not that interesting of a story. I think just the act of tightrope walking between the twin towers is more exciting than the journey getting there. I think Zemeckis tries to make it entertaining, but it’s just not all there. Maybe it’s just too true to real life?
