No Frills, Cheap Thrills ... Just Brilliant Storytelling!

Rating: 8/10 (11 September 2016)

It's no surprise when one steps into a cinema to catch Tom Hanks' performance, it will be nothing short of brilliant.
No one can play an ordinary hero like he does! His rendition of the shy & quiet Sully was heart warming. He was understated and compelling! Same goes to his supporting cast members Aaron Eckhart & Laura Linney.
Clint Eastwood doesn't disappoint in bringing us a very human cinema. It wasn't over dramatized, no loud and unnecessary music score to distract from the story.
I loved the non- linear fashion of story telling starting post crash to recollections that follows throughout. One really gets a sense of what 'Sully' went through with the media chaos and investigation that ensued post his successful yet in many ways haunting experience.
And all this fit into a crisp 96 minutes was absolutely brilliant! no lags, no exaggerations; kudos to Mr. Eastwood & the editing team.
