Tom Hanks as Sully is impeccable. Aaron Eckhart’s solid performance brings Jeff Skiles well-deserved recognition, as someone who any of us could rely on him our lives. Read more

Bristling with good acting, a good story, and Aaron Eckhart’s mustache.

Is Sully a hero or simply a professional whose skill helped him pull off a remarkable feat? The movie suggests, as is fair, that the latter makes him the former by proxy. He's certainly a hero in the hearts and minds of the people whose lives he saved, and in the psyche of New Yorkers. Perhaps Eastwood's film will play better to members of either group, but for casual viewers it's a dramatically inert slog. Read more
