| "The film is never more powerful, though, than in a montage of passengers crying farewells into cell phones, when suddenly there's Pittsburgh native Jodie Lynne McClintock, playing passenger Marion R. Britton, saying, 'I love you, too, Fred. Call your people.' And that brings home the horror more than anything." - Pittsburgh Tribune Review |
| "Greengrass's choice to cast an outstanding ensemble of character actors in the film was a stroke of genius." - Washington Post |
| "In God's absence, we have only other human beings to love us. Hence in the phone calls made from the plane, heartrendingly documented by Greengrass. The message or mantra is always the same and is uttered usually with calm deliberation: 'I love you' is for these people a last will and testament. One woman (Jodie Lynne McClintock), after completing her terminal call, hands the airphone to her younger neighbour in the next seat, who presumably lacks a credit card, and says: 'Here, call your people.' It is a small and beautiful act of generosity." - London Observer | |
| "The actors themselves are of stunning caliber." - Potomac Almanac/Herndon Connection Newspapers | |
|
"United 93 is disturbing viewing but full of inspiring,
unforgettable moments, especially among the passengers as their fate
dawns. A lady (Jodie Lynne McClintock) gives her mobile to a young woman next to her. 'You call your people,' she says simply. It
is a masterpiece -- heartbreaking but life-affirming." - London Sunday Press |
|
| "Every actor in the film generates a stark, minutely perfect performance." - Arizona Daily Star | |
| "Heroes come in many forms; some speak loudly, some just whisper. There was another kind of heroism on that plane, one that perhaps didn't make so many headlines. A woman (Jodie Lynne McClintock), tearfully speaking to a loved one for the last time, cuts her own phone call short so as to press her phone into the hands of the stranger next to her. 'Call your people,' she says quietly... From these people, something extraordinary came." - Seattle Times | |
|
"A round of applause for the cast, crew, Mr. Greengrass, and to the
individuals involved in the attacks for showing us that in the darkest
hour of man, the brightest light can be shown and love can always
breakthrough." - The Oscar Igloo |
|
| "Look at United 93 - one of the hardest movies you'll ever have to look at, but if you're ready for the cathartic moment, go see it. And you will see the greatest actors I've ever seen. You don't know who any of them are, and they are part of what I think is probably one of the most important movies of the new millennium." - Tom Hanks on Inside the Actors Studio | |
