This was a movie, is a true story. There were so many ill gotten things wrong with this movie. I have no clue why the writers decided to take the direction they took. We should demand more out of our writers and directors. A Saturday night movie on normal T.V. with C list actors would have done better.
Some of the highlights. The two children had nothing to do with nothing. Just a fake girl power move. How can children on bikes move faster than an actual car. Why on earth are we race swapping? Who asked for that? We need to call this stuff out like we boycott everything else. And finally, the wife (AKA Heather Graham). Anything she says or does is bad, off, ackward, and not realist. The part of the entire movie that got me, was when they miss the landing the first time, and had to go back out. They were in the middle of a storm. In a plane they can't fly, unable to see, scared, turbelance, with death on the horizon for each member of her family at the sametime. The wife looks to her husband, as he panics trying to fly and says, "We have been through worse". WHAT COULD POSSIABLE BE WORSE THAN THAT MOMENT?? What?
This movie was not good. The story is, the move, no. I give it an F+
