Breaking down and discussing three of the flying scenes from the movie FLIGHT (2012) starring Denzel Washington. www.cwlemoine.com #MoverRuinsMovies #FLIGHT #MovieReaction
I've always wanted to ask a pilot whether they're offended by that. I'd thought that with corporate speak turned on at all times they'd say they're flattered but inside they hated it.
"If you rolled that slow at that altitude, it just changes your impact angle" made me laugh out loud

The reason why the actor was "explaining" the action to ATC is just a means of explaining it to us, the audience, without having to speak and look directly into the camera. It's an often used "go arround" maneuver in action movies. :D
Apollo 13 managed pretty well without resorting to too much of that. There are ways around it, and I appreciate the effort to make something as close as possible to real life. There are always details about real life that you can tell come from first hand experience. You wouldn't miss them if they weren't there (because most people aren't pilots or astronauts), but you do notice when they are there. Black Swan does that with ballet. The Wrestler does that with wrestling. What an editor and director might do is front load the flight in question with exposition, so that when you actually get to the flight, the audience already knows what to look for.
yes. but that's not the point of these videos. the point is to point out that it's not realistic. why did you watch this? so you could say it's just a movie? he's says several times "that's just the way they wrote it". you probably clap after a good landing.
A lot of airlines use that situation as an interview question; "You're a probationary FO. First flight off IOE. You show up and the Captain smells of alcohol. What do you do?"
I can understand the hesitation one would feel over their job reporting someone over you, what I don't understand is why your job would be more important than your health/safety.
@@rykehuss3435 I think you meant the 1986 movie..not the new one. I hope he does a video on Top Gun 1986. I love that movie and I know it has a lot of mistakes in it, but it would be fun to watch Mover tear it apart.
Because someone who literally has your life in their hands just averted a disaster. It like people clapping for the medical professional or clapping for pilots who successfully complete a water landing or something. Sounds like some of you have no sense of gratitude.
@@ultradevon04 in an emergancy situation that you survive, yes clap, but on a regular landing, its like clapping your taxi driver for taking you down the road
@@ultradevon04 "Because someone who literally has your life in their hands just averted a disaster." In a normal landing? That's just insulting to everyone involved.
I’ve read that this role was offered to John Travolta. Travolta is a pilot, and said that his pilot friends would never stop laughing about the crazy antics in the flying portion. It’s great that you noted the controls were restored after inverted flight, and that they would not have been able to achieve full power with engines off...lol!
Not sure which aircraft this was meant to be: - interior looks like B737 - final call outs sound like Airbus - what about two engines mounted at the end, instead of under the wings?
The producers specifically took certain elements of several aircraft so they didn’t have 1 type of aircraft look like it was prone to crashing. They also never had Whip drink 1 brand of alcohol more than once so they wouldn’t vilify one particular brand.
As a Private Pilot I thoroughly enjoy this video you gave commentary about subjects that mostly Pilots would understand, however you said it in a way where non Pilots can understand the workings of a modern airliner as well, your dry humor made it all that much more enjoyable so I decide to subscribe and look forward to watching more of your work
I think they are clapping because a fearful event is seemingly over. Most people don't anything about flying so they clap for the pilot who has their lives in their hands. Pilots are awesome. They deserve a little love.
Absolutely annoying and unrealistic, but it's meant to ever increase suspense among viewers. Normally music is used for this in films, but in an "aviation" movie, they use jet engine noise.
I love the cheesy sound effect they use when ANY aircraft is descending the sound effect is a Jericho Siren on a Stuka dive bomber lol its hilarious hearing a commercial jet with Jericho Sirens lol
You have perfect mix of actually knowing a lot of stuff, and being kinda "American" about it with all the funny, sarcastic comments. Love your channel, keep this series up!
Controller here: spot on about deviations. Just tell use you want to deviate left or right, we'll restrict how far you can go if we need it for traffic and give you a fix to navigate once you're done.
I experienced an in air emergency while flying as an Air Force crew chief. Watching this movie brought up some bad memories of that incident. Your breakdown was really good, because when you're in that kind of situation you don't remember everything exactly as it happened.
'Reached max turbulence penetration speed (giggity)'. She's got a stiff elevator (giggity) The movie has a cool scene at the beginning but I can't talk about it for reasons (giggity). Lol Awesome!
Mate, really enjoying all of your videos, especially the mover ruins movies. Great analysis and explanation of scenes from movies. Been glued to your channel all night watching back from your first videos right through to the recent ones, keep up the good work. Really enjoying it. 👍
I kept cracking up at how he makes fun of the First Officer. Great expert analysis, and great video! I loved this movie, but it’s good to recognize reality.
'Whip' doesn't make his screwdriver with the single serve vodkas until after they're in the air. He does it when he is making the announcement and more importantly after he cancels drink service.
That's a good point. I was thinking "well yeah, the pilot wants to tell the ATC that they have an emergency, I guess it makes sense he will report the situation and give them status updates", but now I remembered that these callouts(?) exist and are a much better way of informing the ATC they might need to send a search&rescue team soon.
I’m crying with laughter. Your descriptions and facial expressions is just perfect. Even better because you were a fighter jock and your head is still a normal person size! 😂👍😃
Make Anthros Great Again I, and I do NOT mean figuratively, couldn’t agree with you more!!!!! As a LEOW-it’s a rare shift that passes without hearing about an instance where paying attention for that extra second, wouldn’t have a better outcome!
Read about AF447, testimony of Sullenberg to Congress, ways pilots are now trained and treated in line of work.... aviate, naviagte, communicate is thing of past.
Hey, Mover. The content has always been there but the recent production value improvement is impressive. Keep up the great work! PS - any update on a Top Gun 2 watch party? Count me in :)
Great commentary! As a retired USN Diver (air, mixed and pure O2), the best possible cure for a hangover, is to get into a recompression/hyperbaric chamber and breathe Oxygen at 2ATA/33fsw. Not exactly approved by the Bureau of Medicine and Surgery - but it's fast and effective! Thanks for the video!! HMCS(DV/FPJ/FMF) USN Ret
This wasn't an aviation movie it was about substance abuse and recovery. Should be shown in group meetings and drug/alcohol classes. May not be accurate but what a great opening scene!
I think it’s kinda good to let ATC know what’s going on that way they know that you were about to crash, lately there’s too many cases of planes just vanishing and I think that’s due to lack of communication between the plane and ATC
Thank you for pointing out that you dont really punch through turbulence. Most people dont seem to grasp, and the forces are staggering, that a plane that heavy moving so fast cant fly through gasses 4 or 5 times as thick as other spots without some effect. Turbulence might as well be invisible concrete in the sky and ramming it is like trying to land in water at terminal velocity: the force of your body hitting a sudden density change pulps your body as surely as if you had struck stone. Thats the analogue for what speeding through turbulence does to an aircraft; it smashes it and pushes it. You wouldnt run at somebodys fist as they tried to punch you
8:27 thank you for this point about how the ATC would change the course and avoid that mess of a storm altogether. That mistake would have had to go through multiple layers on people so I doubt it would’ve really happened, but this is a movie lol
Worked ground crew for cargo planes. I’ve seen drunk pilots get into the cockpit and allowed to fly. When I asked the supervisor why he didn’t stop it, he said it would take too much time to get a new crew.
