Well I say return to ‘live action’,, but the Motion Capture
films Zemeckis as confined himself to since Cast Away in 2000 are live action films,
that just happen to look like animation / be animated. So has the man who
brought us such treasures as Back To The Future, Who Framed Roger Rabbit,
Forest Gump and What Lies Beneath retained his touch? (For the record his
MO-Cap films were a bit of a mixed bag with ‘A Christmas Carol being terrible
and Beowulf very entertaining, but his tech, especially with it being so
expensive, just didn’t live up to his expectations and forever making films in
that manner just didn’t come to pass.)
Synopsis...
“In this action-packed mystery thriller, Academy Award winner
Denzel Washington stars as Whip Whitaker, a seasoned airline pilot who
miraculously crash-lands his plane after a mid-air catastrophe, saving nearly
every soul on board. After the crash, Whip is hailed as a hero, but as more is
learned, more questions than answers arise as to who or what was really at fault,
and what really happened on that plane?”
Let’s face it, it is always good to see a Denzel film on the
horizon, the man never lets you down, even if the film he’s in isn’t worthy.
Joinginng hm are the also excellent John Goodman (Who starred with Washington
in the underrated ‘Fallen’.) and Don Cheadle.
Flight...
