Amoral Drug Adict Alcoholic Pilot

Rating: 1/10 (19 January 2013)

I am sorry to write this negative review for I usually only write positive review about films and stars.
Saw this film and was tempted to walk out. The film depicts a self absorbed alcoholic pilot who is a cocaine user, and what upset me greatly is that many in the audience seemed to like him as a character. Some of the performances are done well especially the young co pilot and the stewardesses on the flight crew but for one minute did I believe Denzel Washington was a Pilot. Any one consuming that much vodka on an hour flight would be flat on his back passed out.
Am not an expert but when the Co Pilot saw that the Pilot ( Washington) was unfit for flying the co pilot had a responsibility to take over controls. Mr.Washington's nomination for a Best Actor to me is undeserved. John Goodman was "comic" as the drug dealer.
Why did thee Director make the Co Pilot who suffered many life enduring injuries and his wife as cartoon characters because they both found solace in Faith? The plane clips a steeple of a church as it lands in the field...is this the Director's opinion of Religion?
I do not recommend this film especially with those with young families due to the blatant drug use, nudity, foul language
