Oscar Nominated Film II - Flight


The main attraction of this movie would be Denzel Washington, who was nominated for best actor in 2013 Academy Award.  He gave a great performance as an airline pilot Whip high on drugs and drinks, but managed to save the lives of 102 passengers and crews during an emergency.  The movie could have explored more on the dilemma between convicting someone who was unfit for duty and how the same person steered the plane to safety.  The movie also did not dwell much into the relationship between Whip and another junkie Nicole, played by Kelly Reilly.  Having said that, this is still an enjoyable movie, with good acting and of course, the memorable flight diaster scene.  Recommended.
