The F Word! I say this as clearly the writers/director had difficulty putting a decent film together without it! Almost every scene the F Word is present and spoken. This would not have won an Oscar, not in my view and sadly the F word does spoil the content of the film. Not sure how they would have gotten around the problem but clearly there was an issue. Lady Gaga makes a very decent contribution to the film but if truth be known the F word is there far far far too often. In short it does spoil the film. It would be interesting to see how they would have made the film without any expletives.

From the minute Tom Hanks appears as Captain Sullenberger, you know this is going to be a "gem". This came on recently as a Freeview. I cant recall a better film directed by Clint Eastwood and this one says it all. The Captain and crew are heros. He knows he cant make it to La Guadia airfield leaving him ONE option - the Hudson. What comes out of that is truly outstanding.

Interesting that some have a negative view of this 4 part series. I cant say the same thing! It IS pretty good with the central character being brought in to solve a crime. It isnt clear until the final episode who Mr Bambers character is, which is helpful. The officer does crack it and it will be interesting to see if they bring her back for a 2nd series.
