"中国机长" (The Captain) is more than just a disaster film; it is a powerful tribute to human bravery and professionalism. It celebrates not only the heroism of Captain Liu, but also the dedication of the entire flight and ground crew who worked together to ensure the safety of 119 passengers and 9 crew members.
While it may have some dramatic elements that lean toward melodrama (common in productions based on real events), the execution is so engaging and the performances so sincere that these moments are easily overshadowed by the raw emotion of the story. It is a film that captivates the audience from start to finish, leaving the viewer with a sense of admiration for human resilience and capacity in times of extreme adversity. Recommended for fans of disaster films, dramas based on true events, and anyone who enjoys stories of heroism.
