Default Flight.

Really good movie. A bit hard to watch though if you have ever lived with an alcoholic for an extended amount of time.

Does have a lot of full frontal and rear view nudity.

Pilots seem to laugh at much of it however as not being very realistic when it comes to portraying the working experiences of commercial pilots in the US. The lawyer seemed a bit of a caricature too.

I loved this movie. It hit home in a lot of ways and I found myself on the edge of my seat. I was so distraught, I had a hard time getting up and leaving the theater. If you or anyone in your life have ever experienced alcohol problems, this movie will hit you like a ton of bricks. So true to life, in my book!!

Not a movie they would show on long distance flights. A good movie although I'm sure the accuracy can be questioned. Worth watching.

It did seem very accurate with respect to alcohol and drug addiction. I suppose real like commercial pilots would have to speak to how realistic the crash and other commercial aviation aspects were.

Denzel Washington certainly deserves any acting nominations he gets. I see Lincoln taking a lot of them though. Kind of hard to beat a movie that is so presidential in subject and presentation.
