FLIGHT is compelling, heroic and a suspense thriller about a commercial airline pilot Captain Whitaker (Denzel Washington) with extraordinary skills who struggles with issues of co-dependency. Director Zemeckis ingeniously captures the new visual effects technology and the power of mind over matter. This must see film is definitely an Oscar nominee contender!
