Rating: 9/10 (27 December 2012)

Flight brings two talents under one roof- Robert Zemeckis and Denzel Washington and when you hear their name out , you can exactly expect a wholesome entertainment with some power packed performance and superb direction.
Known for his alcoholic addiction , Whip Whitaker(Denzel Washington) fights the case for which he is accused of crashing an airplane and killing 6 people on board.
After a long time , Robert Zemeckis returns to reality cinema , taking break from live-action animation movies, and gives us a path breaking film never attempted before. The premises of the movie about a pilot doing justice by saving 100 people on a plane but is unable to save himself is the highlight. Opening scenes have been directed gallantly with plane crashing scene to be among the best ( similar to the Cast Away plane crash scene). From high-octane action sequence , the film divulges into series of drama which has been performed very well by Denzel Washington and rest of the star cast. Couple of scenes still embedded in my mind after I left the theater. The scene where Washington tires had not to consume alcohol , the court room drama where he finally confesses to be alcoholic has been excellent. It is always wonderful to watch Robert Zemeckis movie and this one stands no different. The director has excelled in his cinema and result is fruitful. Screenplay is tight keeping you engrossed. Art direction is amazing. Dialogues are well-written. Cinematography is breath-taking. Editing is fine. Denzel Washingtion gives in yet another knockout performance. The actor is so natural that he smoothly fits in the role of Whip Whitaker. It is hard to imagine anyone else doing this part. Watch out for him in the climax where he meets his son. He is excellent.
Flight is one of the best movie i've ever seen. Given a chance , I can watch it once again. Highly recommended 4.5/5
