Enter Whip Whittaker, a pilot whom has a rather troubled life stemming from alcoholic addiction. Denzel Washington plays the role of Whittaker who takes flight of a plane that is doomed for failure. He becomes a hero to many, but there are many doubters as to whether the events of his lifehood had anything to do with the destiny of the plane.
Without giving away the film (because it really isn't about the Flight itself), I must say first and foremost that I would be very very surprised to see Denzel Washington get robbed of a nomination here. This is Ray Milland/Nicholas Cage type of acting within alcoholic roles, and if not better.
Robert Zemeckis finally delivers an awesome film as this is his film non-animated film since Cast Away. Add this one to his list of greats.
The supporting cast is awesome as well, particularly with Cheadle and Goodman.
I don't want to give away to much, but I think that this will be up there for best films of 2012 when it is all said and done for me. It gets a 9/10 from me.
