The film is actually entitled "United 93". Here is a review and weekend
box office report:

With painstaking authenticity, "United 93" recounts the horrific end of
passengers who fought back against their hijackers aboard one of the
commandeered planes, which crashed in rural Pennsylvania.

Families of those killed aboard Flight 93 cooperated with director Paul
Greengrass ("The Bourne Supremacy," "Bloody Sunday"), who re-creates the
experiences of passengers and air-traffic controllers in a
documentary-style drama. "United 93" earned widespread praise from critics.

Shot on a modest budget of $15 million, "United 93" should easily turn a
profit once theatrical, television and DVD revenues are tallied.
Universal said it will donate 10 percent of the first weekend's grosses
to the Flight 93 National Memorial in Pennsylvania.

Playing in 1,795 theaters, about half as many as "RV," "United 93"
averaged a solid $6,462 a cinema, the best results among the top-10 movies.

"We can now kind of put to bed any idea that people are not ready to see
this type of movie. The numbers speak for themselves," said Paul
Dergarabedian, president of box-office tracker Exhibitor Relations.
