The Hollywood Reporter - Todd McCarthy
A vigorous and involving salute to professionalism and being good at your job, Sully vividly portrays the physical realities and human elements in the dramatic safe landing of a crippled US Airways jet on the Hudson River on January 15, 2009.
88
New York Post - Lou Lumenick
At its heart, this is a thrilling tribute to a modest hero who rose to an extraordinary occasion.
85
TheWrap - Robert Abele
Sully, an honest, skillful rumination on what makes a hero, is just one more example of how Eastwood, having directed movies only slightly longer than his protagonist had been flying planes, is still a masterful pilot himself.
75
Entertainment Weekly - Chris Nashawaty
The reason why the movie works at all is Hanks.
75
The Playlist - Gregory Ellwood
In the end it’s really Eastwood who makes sure the film transcends the typical biopic tropes. At a spry 86 it’s unclear how much longer he’ll remain behind the director’s chair, but “Sully” proves that with the proper material and actors he can still stir emotions with the best of them.
