I liked this movie far more than I should have. The fact that some reviewers were so drawn into the movie that they had to write "reviews" only to express how pathetic of a man "Adam" was, translates into Justin Long doing a wonderful job portraying a character that describes itself as an alien in the movie.
I really appreciated how the character "Allison" was just an observed character that wasn't present for most of the movie. You see her in the eyes of Adam and she only actively participates when she talks to him. Cobie Smulders rarely disappoints. I must add that the movie is visually beautiful, evidenced by many scenes throughout the movie, of which I cite the scenes played over the end credits.
The movie really did make me feel different emotions, strong emotions; and for that fact, I praise it.

The concept of this show is brilliant. It is not intended for aviation geeks which I appreciate. My only problem is that the execution is poor most of the times; doesn't mean I won't watch it. The acting in the early seasons shouldn't be called acting. I have a problem with mistakes like an aircraft rotating when the pilot calls V1. Sound effects are awful most of the times. It's disappointing because you can get better sound effects using a simulator. I wish they did not voice act the CVR recordings and the ATC conversations, at least not in every episode. The show actually can help some people overcome their fear of flying. They show the aftermath of the accident and how findings prevent further accidents. The interviews are well made. I noticed that most of the time they show rare footage. It's also nice that they sometimes present incidents in which nobody got injured; if you don't already know the story and skip the show's annoying intro, it's nice when you find out that everyone came out alive. If you like aviation, you already know this show. If you fear flying, try it, it might help.
