movie of the week Christian dribble

Rating: Null/10 (5 February 2013)

Spoiler ALERT-He ends up thanking god for getting sober. I'll never understand this: Where was god when he was getting drunk? And the co-pilot and his wife saying praise Jesus and praise god for saving them...What arrogance...like God choose to say F/you and die to the ones that died in the crash, but not to them. This movie is basically an advertisement for Alcoholics Anonymous. It plays like a cheesy morality driven movie of the week...total DRIBBLE! If you like that, you'll probably enjoy it. The flight crash scene was good and long and sort of interesting seeing the tricks he did. Only thing really good in the movie was John Goodmans performance and his character was humorous to watch, but still just another drug dealer so nothing original. For a man who wouldn't get sober for the love of his life (his wife) and his kid (who he also loved deeply), we are led to believe that betraying a girl he is having an affair with is this great precipitating event to get him sober...just AA nonsense, plain and simple. Sad cause I'm a fan of the director and of Denzel...oh well.
