"Flight" takes off with a bang, but sadly falls flat.

Rating: 6/10 (23 December 2012)

Denzel Washington is really the pillar that holds this movie up. Had it been anyone else, this movie would fail. The film is okay, and not a bad watch by any means but lacks much needed details.
Instead of focusing on the details needed, they put in details that have nothing to really do with the plot or add to the story. They also don't really go in depth of how the plane actually started falling until the last 15 minutes, and by then it was really dragging along. Great concept but poor execution.
I felt like I wanted to stop watching at about the halfway mark, but I kept watching. The movie takes off well, but falls flat in the middle. The ending picks back up slightly as our main character takes a turn for the worst. Generally, however, he isn't a very likable character, and I feel that plays a major role in why I didn't enjoy this film a lot.
Is it worth it to see in theaters? Possibly. I'd recommend you get this film on BluRay or DVD when it comes out because its definitely not a "must see" film of 2012.
