Review of Worth (2021) by Tvjerry — 05 Sep 2021
A number of documentaries have been released to mark the 20th anniversary of 9/11, but this is a fact-based drama that tackles a unique angle. Michael Keaton creates an involving performance as Kenneth Feinberg, who was assigned the contentious and unenviable task of compensating the families of the attacks.
Much of the story involves efforts to cope with the variations on the basic rules, with 2 cases highlighted for a more personal aspect. While there are numerous testimonies about the effect that day, these grueling accounts seldom spark any emotion.
The filmmakers alternate between the strategic political machinations and the complex human angles. Even though it lacks the emotional punch you’d expect from this subject, the film proves a fascinating look into this specific outcome from that terrible event.
