Sully (2016) is a thrilling biographical drama that recounts the incredible true story of pilot Chesley Sully Sullenberger. When Sullenberger's plane suffers dual engine failure shortly after takeoff, he is forced to make a daring decision - to land on the Hudson River, saving the lives of all 155 passengers and crew onboard.
The film explores the aftermath of this extraordinary event, with Sullenberger finding himself facing scrutiny and investigation from the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB). While hailed as a hero by the media, Sully is confronted with doubts and accusations from those who question the necessity of his emergency landing. As the NTSB delves deeper into the incident, Sullenberger fights to prove that he made the right call under the circumstances.
Directed by Clint Eastwood and starring Tom Hanks in a gripping performance, Sully captivates viewers with its intense portrayal of the real-life events that unfolded in January 2009, known as the Miracle on the Hudson. The film skillfully explores the psychological toll that heroic actions can take on an individual, while also examining the interconnectedness of human lives in times of crisis.
Filled with nail-biting suspense and emotional depth, Sully is a must-watch for those who seek stories that celebrate the indomitable human spirit in the face of overwhelming odds.
