Detailed analysis of Thriller clip. 'United 93'

United 93 was a film which was released in 2006. United 93 premiered on April 26, 2006 at the Tribeca Film Festival in New York City. It was released in June 2, 2006 in the UK. The film contained facts about the hijacks that happened abroad at the United Airlines during September 11, 2001. The film was supported by several passengers family members. The film is based on one of the four planes that was hijacked.

The film starts of as a plane black screen were we are only able to hear the Quran being read. After a while of the muslim mans praying and shaving scenes etc. The man says "It's time." This creates tension and the audience is unaware of everything thats going on. This makes the audience think and creates a suspence atmosphere!
Leaving for Newark International Airport. At the airport, passengers get on the plane so it can take off, however within half an hour of the journey, Flight 93 is delayed for 30 minutes due to high volume of traffic. Although it was anounced asthough they had to delay the plane because of traffic, the audience were still able to understand that there was something unusuall about this situation. The 4 terrorists in the plane wasnt saying much but their body language and quietness was creating suspence. The 3 other planes that were hijacked had taken off.

Later on in the film, the flight 93 takes off again and the suspence truely beggins! There are 4 terrorists on the plane that are shown as the people that are going to course a problem. However, one of these people looks as though he doesnt want to do anything. He looks scared and has constantly been praying to God. Also we saw him making a phone call and telling somebody that he loves them. This shows that, this specific man doesnt want to be hijacking the plane. He is emotional and suspencefull at the same time. The reverse psychology builds up the tension, leaves the audience wondering if he might not do anything.
Then in a sudden, everything starts to take off. It all starts when one of them go into the WC to put a fake bomb around his waist which is made out of clay and plastic!

While all of this was happening, the other 3 hijacked planes had taken action from before.
The Air Traffic Controllers were shocked about what was going on! When one of the other planes aimed and crashed into the Twin Towers, the whole of the room of Air Traffic Controllers went silent! It was on live news and everybody was shocked.
The fact that the crashes happened one after another and the fact that everybody was shocked, scared and worried. This was where the audience was on the edge of their seats as they didnt know when Flight 93 would crash or would it.

The 4 terrorists on the plane are terrorising the passengers and scaring everybody at the point where theres roughly 20 minutes for them to reach to their aim. At this point the audience feels asthough they know that the terrorists would do exactly what the other 3 planes had done! Just then some of the passengers get together and make a quick plan due to that fact that they believe that they need to try to do something and that its better than just waiting to see what would happen. The passengers plan to attact the terrorists within a sudden. Just when everybodies hopes come up and the audience thinks that there might be a change, with the sudden attact, they do not reach their aim. We hear a load of people screaming and the scene turns black. The plane crashes in the middle of a field, ending with nobodies aim working!
