Jim Schembri, 3AW
The powerful pull of the bottle is conveyed with considerable force...The character fits Washington like a tailored strait-jacket, possibly because he's worn it before.

Michael Bonner, Uncut Magazine [UK]
Zemeckis - who hasn't directed a live action film since 2000's Cast Away - shoots the film as straight as possible. But that's not to say it's without wit.

David Sexton, This is London
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.

Robbie Collin, Daily Telegraph
However hampered it is by its own beery bloat, Zemeckis's film is morally provocative and bookended by genius; perhaps it is the first psychological disaster movie.

Peter Bradshaw, Guardian [UK]
Denzel Washington's natural gravitas seems all the more fascinating when tainted by sins and secrets in this tale of a functioning-alcoholic pilot.
