Flight (2012) - Robert Zemeckis

Robert Zemeckis is brilliant; every credit to his name deserves to be an awards winner, but there are only a couple that get there. Flight is much of the same kind of thing. You know it won't win an Oscar, but that doesn't mean it isn't up there with the best of the year. Denzel Washington shines out, and every little touch seems perfectly written.
