The higher you fly the harder you fall...

Rating: 9/10 (9 March 2013)

First of all; Denzel Washington, what a great actor! There's something serious and dark about that man, which truly makes him perfect for playing the role of Captain Whitaker.
After having seen the trailer I thought I had this movie figured out, but there's a lot of depth to the plot and it takes unexpected twists and turns. It shows the true, ugly face of alcoholism in a non glorifying manner, and you wouldn't have to been in a plane crash to relate to it.
What Flight really is about is being true to yourself, and the multitude of difficulties that comes with being just that. It's put in to context with the whole plane crash debacle, which keeps pushing the story onward and keeps excitement up throughout the whole film.
Overall a great movie, which has something for everyone.
