Rating: 8/10 (24 February 2013)

I do not recall anything that Denzel Washington has done that wasn't fantastic, and this film is no exception.
And, boy howdy, we have John Goodman. He was fantastic in Argo, and he is no less a treasure here.
I wish I had more to say about Nadine Velazquez. She made a great impression in the beginning of the film, but sadly, she only returned as the catalyst that brought about the change in Captain Whip (Washington).
Washington was amazing. His performance was one that will be worth watching over and over. The last few minutes of the film really brought out all of his talents.
