Flight

Movie / Show Details

Robert Zemeckis directs this 2012 drama following commercial airline pilot Whip Whitaker, a man battling substance abuse who has managed to keep his personal struggles separate from his professional duties. When a catastrophic mechanical failure forces his aircraft into an uncontrollable dive, Whip executes an extraordinary crash-landing that preserves the lives of most passengers, though six people perish in the disaster. As investigators begin examining the crash, Whip’s addiction becomes impossible to hide, forcing him to confront both the trauma of the event and the demons he has long avoided.

This Blu-ray release from Paramount Pictures presents the film in its original 2 hour 18 minute runtime, rated R, on a single disc. Denzel Washington leads the cast as Whip, supported by Nadine Velazquez, Tamara Tunie, and others. You can own this used copy for a fraction of retail cost.
