Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 3/5 --
Here, after the truly alarming crash sequence, there are no special effects, just deft and committed film-making, letting us see steadily in long takes.

London Evening Standard
4 stars out of 5 -- [A]bly steered by an on-form Zemeckis, FLIGHT is well worth boarding.
Total Film
Directing his first live-action film since 2000’s CAST AWAY, Robert Zemeckis paces it brilliantly, slowly ramping up the energy... -- Grade: A-
A.V. Club
3.5 stars out of 4 -- [Washington is] a ball of fire, and his detailed, depth-charged, bruisingly true performance will be talked about for years.
Rolling Stone
It's a solid, burnished work made about adults for adults and anchored by Denzel Washington in a role that calls for some classic star gravitas.
Movieline
Rating: B- --
Flight makes its points, but it never capitalizes on what might make it unique.

Assignment X
With FLIGHT, director Robert Zemeckis has made a solid, unshowy character drama....It's a sober piece about a man's moral choices, built around a creditable central performance from Denzel Washington...
Uncut
Product Description:
In Robert Zemeckis' drama FLIGHT, alcoholic pilot Whip Whittaker (Denzel Washington) does a miraculous job crash-landing a plane that has suffered a severe mechanical breakdown in midair, however the mandated investigation into the incident will inevitably lead to the discovery that he was flying the plane while drunk and on cocaine. As he attempts to sober up, Whip befriends a fellow addict he meets during his post-accident stay in the hospital. Soon he fails in his attempts to white-knuckle himself to sobriety, and with the help of his favorite drug-dealer (John Goodman) and his lawyer (Don Cheadle), Whip must prepare to testify about what happened on that fateful flight.
