I would think that this has been discussed before, but I cannot find the thread.

When I started watching it last night, I felt relatively cool about it, although I was still sure I would find the conclusion affecting. The shaky camera style and background noise in the control rooms were effective in communicating the atmosphere of that type of place, but (therefore) it was hard work to watching/listen to. This was exacerbated by two couples around me, one at least in their sixties, repeatedly talking, which blended with the background speech very distractingly. Anyway, by the time events were getting going on the 'plane, I was more and more gripped and tense. Once the passengers were fighting back, I was fully absorbed by the panic. When they were trying to wrestle control from the terrorists in the cockpit and the 'plane went down, I was physically shaking with the horror and grief.

Yep, I think that probably makes a significant difference in how much one feels one is also on the 'plane.

Awesome film - so glad you got the chance to catch it on the big screen.
