And the first official teaser poster:
“An investigation of a pilot’s emergency landing leads to a troubling discovery.”
Don’t drink and fly, or drink but don’t fly!
The release date of Flight is set for November 2, 2012.

This is not really the movie the poster and trailer hint at. Although the crash sequence is unnerving and well-crafted, the movie takes another turn when it focuses on the personal story of an alcoholic who refuses to recognize his condition. Hollywood melodrama reins supreme here. Denzel and all the actors are great, and it’s nicely directed and looks as good as possible, but there were really two stories — the crash investigation and the recovery drama — that never actually connected. In a way, there are persistent elements that remind that this film is almost a vanity production with a message about addiction.
