SULLY-right captain in the right place at the worst time.

Rating: 10/10 (22 September 2016)

Sully, is Clint Eastwood's new movie staring Tom Hanks as Chesley Sullenberger the pilot who miraculously landed a commercial airplane on the Hudson river after the plane was struck by geese after takeoff. Simple enough? Well as we see the movie there is more to the story than the famous water landing footage and a white mustached man.
Sully is a movie which told in 3 points of view, the actual fight, Sully's personal story, and the NTSB investigating what happened. Asides from the flight, we see Sully having trouble taking all the new stardom as well has having anxiety wondering "what if I did.." The NTSB basically want to prove that flight had the ability to return to the airport and holds Sully accountable. In that sets up a conflict as well as "who's the bad guy?" for the movie. The movie does well with flashbacks of the flight, the meetings with NTSB, and Sully's own personal venture though the whole process.
Since this is a personal review, I found the movie to be amazing. It's wonderful to see a movie and get a "wow did that really happen?" from it. The acting, directing, editing, and even the special effects was top notch. A Clint Eastwood movie with top notch special effects?? Huh? The special effects of recreating the flight scene along with possible outcomes of other fictional plane possibilities was extremely shockingly clear and didn't appear very CGI'ish.
Tom Hanks does fantastic job playing the famous pilot with all of his coolness and reserve. Many people might think, well, it's Tom Hanks haven't we seen enough of his warm-hearted roles? Not like this. He does the job showing a man in a face of stardom while trying to live his normal life. This is a stardom he would never want to be in but let's face it, you land on the Hudson you're IT.
Sully is great example of those moments when you know you did something you had to do but can't describe in words or math. I encourage viewers to listen to the actual audible cockpit recordings, when you do, tell yourself "how many people are able to handle themselves in that situation?" After seeing this movie, you definitely know 1.
