All I Want for Christmas—great stage settings—is a somewhat sweet story. This is an odd film; it is interesting to watch
but by the end of film the movie lacks a Christmas feeling. Its mixing of several romances creates confusion.

Buy a
ticket? Yes? No? Maybe?
Yes. Overall, the basic idea is good. But it lacks a Christmas feeling and becomes convoluted in switching back and forth between several romances.
Sully—very good story—gives its audience a great ‘good news’ from impossible circumstances movie based in true events. The film shows how experience and calmness of mind work hand in hand during critical times when a quick decision must be made. This movie outstandingly shows how well our society functions under duress and how much United States’ culture values human life. Director Clint Eastwood shows his usual high level skills of story telling by maximizing this story with some background information of Pilot Scully’s childhood and military flying experience. Great script, more than worth watching movie.
