A Crash that takes off

FLIGHT (2012) A crash that takes off



Starting this movie REview!
My last eye catching movie was: FLIGHT- starring Denzel Washington, Don Cheadle and John Goodman! Didn't watch it in the movie theater, but enjoyed the gritty character of Whip Whittaker played by Denzel.
If you are looking for the suave,smooth Denzel that is portrayed in most of his movies, sorry! He is at the least a troubled man with a god-complex and strangely enough, a hero. There's no Hollywood ending. In fact the ending is rather abstract & somewhat head scratching,
The characters are quickly developed. The reaction that Whip's character receives from each one is automatic on either end of the emotional spectrum.. Some sexual & drug content are contained in the movie, just a warning if you are one who would rather not see this. IT has its parts where the story slows but those who look for life lessons in the fantasy land of the movies (as I often do) strangely draws you even though the movie slows, you want to see what will happen in the end, You may want to lighten up with a comedy following this movie. But it's definitely one to remember and put in your Denzel Washington collection.
I'd watch it again!!
