Zzzzzzzzz

Rating: 3/10 (7 February 2013)

What a disappointment this movie turned out to be. Viewing the trailer, I had high expectations. With Denzel Washington in front of the camera and Robert Zemeckis behind of it, I thought that "Flight" looked to be one of the most promising movies of today. "There's no way that this can be a bad movie", I thought. Well, unfortunately, it turned out to be a bad movie.
The first half- hour was fantastic! A very memorable opening scene followed by intense action. At this point, "Flight" was living up to my high expectations. All of a sudden, it plummets, literally. The action stops and the movie turns into one of the most long-winded movies of all-time. The runtime is just over two hours but it feels like four, it was that boring. I kept faith that it would pick up again at any minute but it just didn't.
I'm still a fan of Denzel Washington and I'm going to continue watching his movies in the future. But I won't watch "Flight" again, that's for sure. I'd like to give it more than three stars for the rating but I just can't because it doesn't deserve it.
