Tragic but uplifting

Rating: 8/10 (5 June 2016)

A very well executed film, in my opinion. Acting is great from Denzel, Don, and various others later on. The realistic portrayal of the plane crash done the film a huge credit. It kept my heart out to Whip until the climax. The struggle of an alcohol addiction was done out very well in this film. Denzel does a great job at showing all of that, and also at the climax. The film does throw in some spots of humour, to balance out the bleak subject, in the form of John Goodman. In the end I feel the film touched on some great issues of denial, blaming, and addiction, and shows hope through addiction. A film I would definitely watch again.
