Faux hero BS

He did his job, one that is trained for repeatedly.
He (they) performed it at a level that >99% of other ATPs would have done as well.

Lastly, one is not a 'hero' if they are saving their own ass....and everyone else is simply along for the ride.

Seen the movie last Saturday.  While I liked the movie, and I knew kind of what it would be (like a Flight part 2).  

They did a good job with it, however;  This CGI stuff is getting carried the fuck away.  Some of the simple flight shots are CGI and they could have easily filmed these.  This is a Tom Hanks/Eastwood movie after all.

I would give it a solid 3.5 stars out of 5.  It CAN wait until blue-ray.

I honestly believe that a big reason why America isn't great anymore is that so many people think cynicism is Virtue. Congratulations on being part of the problem.

I'm not saying Sully is JC or anything, but under extremely adverse conditions he did a HELL of a job and saved over 150 people. He deserves all the accolades and kudos he gets.

Uhhhmmm... yeah....

Clearly you don't understand why what he did was so impressive. He actually landed a passenger jet on water without losing a single person in an aircraft with two disabled engines, which was unprecedented. He did all this with a 30-35 second window to make the correct decision to either attempt a return to LaGuardia, try for another airport or put it in the water. He's a fucking Jedi.

Thanks for your contribution to the conversation.

Also keep in mind passenger jets aren't A-10s meant to fly around with no engines and half a wing.  Don't they have the glide ratio of a brick tied to some kind of small bird?

Tom hanks is a POS and you people give your money to his films which make him stronger. He swings from Obammys dong and you clamor to see his movies.



You're essentially supporting Communism/Marxism/ Socialism, you see as just a movie but its much more in the long run.

Care to guess how many successful airliner landings have occurred in water?  I know..... you'd have done it better.

Yes, they happen.  Very often they don't work out well.   His actions, ability, and outcome are a lot more impressive than internet cynicism.

Something no one had ever actually succeeded in with a large passenger plane like that before.

'Simulators' are NOT real.
They 'simulate' and for something like a water landing there are way to many variables and 'gotchas' in the real thing.

Most of the other attempts with large aircraft have ended up with broken up airplanes and some dead people.

The FAA said that about a week after the wreck.

The NTSB took 15 months to investigate and report because they check every single possibility.

I'm glad he got some more recognition for his ability (he got tons of it soon after the flight) and I hope he got a good check from the studio, but it would have to have oral sex in it to make me want to pay to see it.

The trailer makes it look like 3 minutes of water landing, then 87 minutes of fake NTSB drama. Is it better than that?


It is. I didn't find a dull moment in it to be honest.

The NTSB investigation took 15 months and concluded finally that he made the right decision to ditch in the Hudson.

This plus one. Having to wade through NTSB reports for my current college class, I can tell you that the reports are lengthy and detailed. They check every single thing that could have possibly contributed to the accident, to include the factory that manufactures pieces of components, if warranted.

Great movie. From the fact checking it looks like they really nailed it, for the most part.

The villain role of the NTSB is a little over played, but otherwise it's accurate.

Tom Hanks totally nails the role, as usual.
