Sully

What to Know

Critics Consensus

As comfortingly workmanlike as its protagonist, Sully makes solid use of typically superlative work from its star and director to deliver a quietly stirring tribute to an everyday hero.

Sully | Rotten Tomatoes (1) Kristen Lopez Culturess Director Clint Eastwood, brings his story to the big screen with the mushy simplicity of creamed corn. Nov 20, 2017 Full Review Sully | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Nigel Andrews Financial Times Sully is about the man who landed the plane on the Hudson. Who better for Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger than Tom Hanks in white hair and matching moustache? Rated: 3/5 Dec 27, 2016 Full Review Sully | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Wendy Ide Observer (UK) Eastwood handles the action sequences with the same cool-headed efficiency as Sully brought to his piloting - you suspect that Eastwood felt a kinship with this no-frills, no-nonsense man who was just doing his job. Rated: 3/5 Dec 4, 2016 Full Review Sully | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Zach Pope Zach Pope Reviews Tom Hanks Delivers all over again Aug 7, 2023 Full Review Sully | Rotten Tomatoes (5) Sean Axmaker Stream on Demand This is the Eastwood aesthetic: professionals doing their jobs without fuss or debate. They don’t have much dimension—Sully is the only fully-developed character on screen—but the actors, like the figures they play, get the job done. Jul 1, 2023 Full Review Sully | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review Eastwood made a wise casting choice, and Hanks makes the transparent qualities of Sully work more than they should. Rated: 2.5/4 Apr 11, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

Michelle S AMAZING movie. Heartwarming in every way. Extraordinary story too. And so many movies are just too long and this movie was the perfect length. Also, a lot of times when the story is super intense the movie is too heavy, this was not that either. Loved it! Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/18/24 Full Review Vegard B Amazing movie for me as a avgeek even tho i didnt live at the time of the accident i think it portrayed it perfectly Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/10/24 Full Review Bobby M Flawless, as usual tom hanks scores Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/24/24 Full Review Rick M Excellent portrayal. Excellently done. Rated 4.5/5 Stars • Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/04/24 Full Review Suraj V Another astonishing role played by Tom Hanks in this movie which is inspired by a true story. This movie depicts the real incident of a plane getting both engines destroyed by coming in contact with a flock of birds resulting in both engine failures. Chesley Sullenberger captain of the plane landed the plane in the Hudson River without even a slight scratch to a single passenger boarding the plane. It sounds heroic but here comes the twist where the investigation began on Sully and proved that the plane could've landed at the nearest airport safely. Clint Eastwood one of the greatest directors of all time didn't fail to show the exact emotions of Captain Sully and what he was going through during during the investigation despite saving the 155 souls. One of my favourite lines from the movie was where Sully said " I've delivered a million passengers over 40 years in the air, but in the end, I'm gonna be judged on 208 seconds.You should watch this 1 hr 36 minute movie even though it's a slow movies you'll be glued to the screen until the credit scene. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/02/24 Full Review Random M i dont care what movie tom hanks is in he always makes it great. he told this story like he was there Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/21/24 Full Review Read all reviews
