I very much doubt that Sully will get a UK release until around February as it's still in the charts.

I liked the film. It's good because it's short and there's no padding - a tightly presented story.

Releases date should be around 27th of March 2017, flexibility can allow early release for seasonal events but Easter doesn't fall until April 17th next year.

must say i thought this was incredibly boring, they had to spice it up with nightmares of planes crashing and a very dubious will he or won't he get blamed for landing on the hudson.
and showing the crash at the end of the film, the climax, what it had been leading up to, was ever so slightly ruined by ALREADY SHOWING THE CRASH HALFWAY THROUGH THE FILM. completely ridiculous film making. if you want to see a great film about a plane crash in which the crash is teased throughout the story watch peter weir's fearless. |

Like you say, you know a film is in trouble when they have to use dreams. |

In this case I thought the contrast between the inquest scenes and the various aspects of the event, including the lead up to the incident as well as the aftermath. In that respect I thought it was paced fairly well. Granted the nightmares may have seemed a little clichéd and melodramatic, but I don't think it detracted from the overall enjoyment of the story. As for Fearless, which I also love and watched recently, I think you could argue the structure was not too dissimilar. Both films showed aspects of the crash near the beginning of the film, and then showed various other details of the event during the film interspersed with the main story. You appear to have been expecting some sort of Airport-style disaster movie, with events unfolding in strictly linear fashion. |

I believe you may have seen a brief sequence early on of the plane landing on the Hudson, but the end sequence showed the full, detailed landing and the escape and rescue of the passengers. Plus any sequences where you may have been shown the same sequence twice was shown from a different aspect or angle. I would also make the point that this was a real life event so we already know what happened, same with the Titanic...so what exactly can be spoiled by showing the event or aspects of the event twice? |

Went to see it last night. Absolutely brilliant, I enjoyed every minute of it. I liked the fact that it was not told in a linear fashion. It made it a bit more interesting. The crash scenes were very dramatic and I almost felt like I was there! I don't know how I would have reacted if I was on that flight. I probably would have panicked or written my last will and testament. I listened to some of the real crew interviews on my phone on the way home to see how accurate they were and most of the details were strangely accurate in the film. I pre-ordered the DVD from Amazon. Definitely a movie I'd watch again as I find the story of the Miracle on the Hudson fascinating.

I must admit I saw it online
![]() It's their own darned fault and I have no sympathy with them at all. Especially with a movie of such a well known and fascinating event as this - I watched it all unfold live while at home and it was amazing. I don't go to the cinema but can't wait to see the film (and may or may not be able to restrain myself from using other means). |

I've got a terrible fear of flying and watching this set me off lol.
When the cabin crew started shouting 'brace' I got a terrible feeling of panic (wuss I know). But I did enjoy the film. |
