Zero hour: Massacre at columbine high school

What were your opinions about the zero hour documentary. Personally, I thought that there were somethings that were left out and were inaccurate a little bit but other than that I thought it was good.

First off best Eric and Dylan casting. The worst was basement tape recreation.

I really love the John Savage interview. I like when he talks about how he was going to get up because he thought the guys just wanted to blow up the school and not hurt anyone and he kind of shrugged about it

As someone who has studied theatre and acted and I am writing a play I found myself looking at the acting choices and facial expressions more than accuracy at times

I was wondering how they were playing Eric and Dylan did I see remorse on their face what was going on?

The actor who played Eric also play Timothy McVeigh in the Oklahoma City Bombing zero hour

I agree they had the best casting. I think it was both remorse and trying to take in what they had done because it looked like they (at least one of them I think) did. The more I go and watch it the more I realise how many people fangirl over the actors or make memes out of it

Zero Hour was fairly decent.

Although I have to say Ben Johnson made a better Eric Harris then he did a Tim McVeigh. He really was awful in the ZERO HOUR-Oklahoma City Bombing documentary.

Ik it was so boring. I watched a little bit of the Oklahoma bombing then I stopped.

Yeah it wasn't the best Doc on the case. Also on a tiny side note in one scene at time stamp 18:23 Ben Johnson was depicting Tim writing a letter, and he misspelled his last name! He legit spelled it McViegh instead of McVeigh. That cracked me up for some reason.

This seems to happen A LOT with things about the bombing and McVeigh in general.

I’m almost finished with it. I think Ben looks a lot more like Tim than Eric.

Though the voice is throwing me off a little bit. He sounds a lot more southern than he should to me. It is hard to do the Upstate New York accent it’s like slightly Canadian slightly Midwestern

I think Tim and Eric sounded a bit alike since Eric spent so much time in the Northeast.

Eh..   I just don't see it. To me Ben looks almost nothing like Tim and sounds even less. You know opinions and all...

But I agree that the accent does sound very Southern. Also if you are familiar with Tim's interviews, then you would know he SO didn't have a Southern accent!

He has a voice much like mine because we are from the same area. And I don’t have a southern accent it sounds more Canadian than anything

I just think he looks more like Tim then Eric but not really like either of them...

I'm just not understanding why Ben even did an accent, OR why he chose that particular accent. Maybe that was his best impression of what he thought Tim sounded like.

It was a strange acting choice.

There at the very least clips up of Tim So he could’ve heard his voice even a little bit

Looking back on it after having re-watched it recently I found the acting distinctly lacking at several points. I think Dylan's actor did a great job, Eric's did an alright job, and pretty much everyone else was fairly bad. The special effects are also poor throughout. But all in all it's not bad. Maybe I'm just jaded from having watched it a fair bit.
