Sully Trailer
Sully is
about the pilot Chesley Sullenberger who crash landed the flight on Hudson
River. Luckily, none of the 155 passengers die. Afterwards, the NTSB
investigates the accident and determines if there is any human error.
The story
reminds me of Flight (2012), starring Denzel Washington, which is also about a
plane crash. But in Flight, the pilot is guilty as he drinks.
I think Tom
Hanks has successfully capture the spirit of Sullenberger. He shows us that he
cares for the safety of the passengers, making sure that everyone has evacuated.
His concern is counting the number of passengers to make sure that no one is
missing. When the NTSB investigates, he starts to doubt himself if he has made
the correct decision. But the more he thinks about what has happened, he is
more certain that he has made the right choice.
The
non-linear editing of the movie is brilliant. You don't feel awkward when the
movie jumps back and forth from Sully's memory of the accident to the present.
I like the
wit of Sully, e.g. "Everything is unprecedented until it happens for the
first time", "You are looking for human error then make it
human."
This is an
uplifting hero movie.
