The Hamburg Cell (2004 TV Movie)
10/10
Well-made and informative
25 September 2021
I'm not good at working with this large a scale so I'm just gonna put 10 to say I liked it, but this film was actually better than I thought it was gonna be. It's very informative on the formation of a terrorist cell, their recruitment by al-Qaeda, training in Afghanistan and US, etc. But I think it can not only provide backstory and what was going on in their heads, but also raise awareness towards just how easily someone can be radicalised. The film focuses on Ziad Jarrah, the one terrorist who had any significant doubts about the attacks. Without an overly religious upbringing, some fundamentalist peers encouraged him to embrace Islam, but not in the way that any of us would like. The film was well-made, had good acting, and overall was a good and very informative film. Recommended.
