Misleading title. "Flight" would be better titled, "Drunk", or something like it. As a pilot and aviation fan, I went for the flying I expected and Denzel Washington. Denzel came through and about five minutes of film was some great flying scenes/script. But I was surprised the film was really the dramatic morphing of the main character played by Denzel. More reminiscent of movies from the 50's and 60's (except for the sleazed-up and largely unnecessary sexual and language detours) where dialogue and drama ruled. But the story is good and, hopefully, sobering, if you pardon the pun.
Pros great actors, realistic
Cons slow, unnecessarily graphic
Yes, I recommend this movie.
