In 2006, Avery revised the film to include new information and released it as Lose Change: 2nd Edition, using forensic evidence and eyewitness testimony to explore such topics as the collapse of the buildings at the World Trade Center and the lack of plane debris at both the Pentagon and Shanksville crash sites. ~ Sandra Bencic, Rovi

    Even if this conspiracy theory is not 100% accurate, it sure sheds some light on issues that led up to and resulted in 9/11. Like the Kennedy assassination... I do not think we will ever know all the truths about 9/11 but this film points out possibilities I had not consider bef... read moreore watching it!

    Loose Change 2nd edition (I've not seen the first) asks a lot of compelling, intelligent and important questions. Many have been answered and are believable, some have been answered and are less believable but the most important questions have not been answered at all. Anyone who... read more just dismisses this line of questioning as absurd, unpatriotic or as just stupid 'conspiracies theories' are helping the powers that be in controlling societies in a state of narrow-mindedness and blind trust. There is much I admire about America, it's culture and it's people but there is no denying that its government is, and always has been, the best at manipulation and propaganda. Why did buildings that were not on fire, nor were hit by the planes, fall? Why are there no pictures of anything hitting the pentagon and quite frankly, do you really believe that not one, but 4 planes were hijacked by men with manicure scissors? A real patriot would question what is happening to and who is (mis)leading his country. Although, much like the UK, were all f*cked in the end and have little clout. I've heard more unconvincing arguments as to why Loose Change is floored than I have serious and believable answers to its questions. Yes it's dramatised in places, 'TOP SECRET' has been added to files that are widely available but that is just nit-picking. It is all a conspiracy, step back and look, Bush shouldn't have even been in power, it was a rigged election with a 4 year plan and it worked beautifully. You might want to question who Mark Fenster and his friends work for too and as exciting as conspiracy theory's are - people generally want to hear that everything is good in our world and that our government wants the best for us without personal gain. Good news sells too! Cup of coffee - No sugar!

    If nothing else, Loose Change is a testament to the power of skillful editing. Filled with a black hole of utter dogshit based off early and chaotic (mis)information and slumped upon a pile of poorly researched and cherry-picked information, Loose Change is often embarrassing and... read more does so much to discredit conspiracy theorists. And I love conspiracy theories, but this garbage would make Fox Mulder slowly inch around the corner.

    There was a History Channel special about debunking 9/11 myths (which is way more interesting) which basically pitted these loose change douchebags against the staff of Popular Mechanics in which the latter made the former look like a bunch of damn fools for the most part. I agree that the current US government straddles the line between shady and incompetent but this movie reaches entirely too far at points. Too far to the point where these chodes spend their days re-editing the movie and rereleasing multiple versions (i.e. retractions aka s h i t t y research) removing nonsensical theories just short of blaming aliens for 9/11. Loose Change makes a few good points that not even the Popular Mechanics guys could give a straight answer on but it's not enough to earn them any decent street cred. I'd like some answers too but you don't see me screaming like a nerkie from a mountain after I didn't do any research. Proceed with caution...

    Whether 9/11 was a full out U.S. government conspiracy or not, I can't say for certain, but this movie presents the most compelling argument for that idea that I've ever seen. What this movie does prove is that things didn't happen the way the gov't and media presented them to th... read moree public. It made me extremely angry, as I think it should. This is a great documentary that everyone needs to see.

    Sets forth a compelling argument, wether its all true or possible is open to debate...it wil definitely open your eyes and see the events of that day in a whole new perspective...gripping at times and a must watch!!
  • December 22, 2010
    Well put together argument. But I don't agree with the conclusion. Great entertainment for conspiracy theorists though.
  • December 22, 2010
    On netflix streaming. This documentry is convincing. I alway feel like you have to be a skeptic of things. Many people will not like this movie or think it is un-patriotic to question these events. I would like to see a movie that tries to counter all of the points made in th... read moreis film, but ... there is none.

    this is a calmed down copy, and it is just so scary that we have been fooled. i do not understand how people dispute clear visual evidence

    Pretentious college idiot makes a debunk documentary using Microsoft power point. I like conspiracy documentaries but this one is so poorly made that it is lost in it's own substance, that being, half ass journalism.
  • March 29, 2009
    ABSOLUTELY PERFECT! Opens up the whole mystery of 9/11 for you to consider how much LYING the Government has really done! THE OTHER major film that woke my dumb sleeping ignorant ass UP! MUST SEE!
