A world thrown upside down

Flight (2012)

Directed by Robert Zemeckis this film stars Denzel Washington, Don Cheadle, Kelly Reilly and John Goodman. Following a miraculous crash landing of a commercial air plane the pilot is revealed to have a drink and drug problem.

The plot of this film mainly focuses on addiction and the fact that a person needs to want help before they can face those problems. Script-wise the film is pretty well written and the early plane crash scenes are especially tense. Largely the film is well made, again especially in the early crash sequence, but maybe could have done with showing a little more of the struggles of withdraw symptoms.


4/5
