Hasn’t this story already been put to film?
I just wonder how Clint will spin one brief event into
a full tapestry of a two hour hollywood movie?
What else is there to say that hasn’t already been said?

Denzel...
Have to be politically correct. But I like Sinise, Tom Hanks or anyone from Apollo 13.

Bingo, 1:30 of boredom with 15 minutes of action.

One of Clint’s ‘average’ films is better than most directors best films.

After “Flight”, no director is letting Denzel anywhere NEAR a cockpit again.

According to the article the film will be based on his book. I have a feeling it will be a bout a lot more than the ditching.

No offense to Sully or Clint, but I don’t think anyone is exactly pining for a whole movie.
