\n1) I thought the characters — and their motives — were largely believable. Shocking, but true. I don’t know if I would have followed Rob, but if I were Rob I might have tried to find Beth, especially after losing my brother. Lily, perhaps for the same sort of reason. Marlena was too shell-shocked and HUD just didn’t want to leave Rob behind. I can sort of see it. In context, it was believable.
\n2) The devastation to NYC was impressive, haunting, and OBVIOUSLY reminiscent of 9\/11. But could you make a movie where ANY city is destroyed without invoking 9\/11? The WTC attacks added dust clouds to our vocabulary. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
