The only reason why I'm garnered up 4 stars for this is because of the first 30 minutes leading up to the interesting flight scenes which are really gripping and due to Denzel's awesome performance. I have no doubt that Denzel totally rocks in acting, but I really prefer him in the more action roles like "Training Day" , "Safe House" , "Out of Time" etc. The movie takes off really well... until the "Flight" crashes ..literally. After that, it's total downhill. I never figured out the requirement of Kelly Reilly in this movie. The movie would be exactly the same without her. OK, I am wrong here... the movie would be BETTER without her. And of course, the way it ends is soooo disappointing. I feel they could have done much more with this movie. If you really want to see Denzel's acting and waste time, I suggest you wait for the DVD.
